No that sucked. I had a bad day. Dumped it in the driveway and couldnt pick the damn thing up again. Just the turn signal is broken and the brake lever is slightly bent.
I was leaving to go to the Civil Air Patrol meeting and I didnt let it warm up long enough I guess. I put it in gear as I was rolling down the driveway. Let the clutch out to go, and it died in gear. Came to a quick halt as I was turning onto the street. It hit that transition of pavement and tipped over. I held it up as long as I could but it turned about 90 degrees as I was holding up the right side. I couldnt hold it up any more and had to set it down. Sigh.

Cant count the number of times it has happened at a stop light.. It's getting to where I just smack her butt and kick it over again (start the bike)... It's most imberassing when some punk kid rolls up on a I4 and wants to run.. DOH! Or when you dump it in the driveway... lol.. just pickin, Ali..

haha It's all good. I felt like an idiot but then again, I seriously hurt my arm trying to hold it up. I got back on her, rode to my civil air patrol meeting, got an ice pack from someone and sucked it up. rode home in the downpouring rain, stripped off in the garage and went to bed freezing and wet. sunday i taped my turn signal cover on with packaging tape and rode 250 miles. still paying for that one today. just called to make a chiropractor appt. lol!!!

I'm having trouble with the picture.. it's not clear... got pics? lol... Full frontal? Wait that's not allowed here, is it.. Greg's already watching me.. (looking over shoulder) lol...
Congrats... I found as I started changing my diet, I went in phases... from feeling good, to feeling run down, and back again.. just suck it up when you get run down and hungry... your body WILL adjust, and then you'll feel good again.. HINT: quit drinking SODA, coffee, tea, or anything.. drink lots of water, you'll drop weight even faster, and keep it off easier. It's hard, but after a while your taste buds even change to LIKE water, and other foods you never liked before.. and the things you DO like are even tastier..
