Ran into my dad's America in a parking lot today and knocked it over. Crushed pipe, broken levers, damaged grips and brake pedal. No damage to the tins or paint work. Yeah, this happened in the parking lot OF THE DMV!!!! These are the ass-hats we share the road with!
He's getting it fixed at the dealer. I told him to look on here for new take off parts instead, but he just wants to drop it off and pick it up all new again.

Bummer... but at least it wasn't a hit and run. Hope your Dad gets it all fixed up as soon as possible!

Damn, Dave. That sucks a big one alright. At least the asshat that did it will be responsible for it.

My wife backed into my America right in my driveway once. Knocked it over and scraped the front fender, broke the brake lever, and dented the pipe. Now the fender is gone, different pipes, and I cut the end of the clutch lever off to match. (Heh heh). Boy I sure don't miss her.


Cut it up.

Sorry to hear of this Dave, though it sounds as if it's mostly just minor damage to your dad's bike.


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
