Cursed bike!

[pepperami]

Am I the only one with a cursed bike?

Last year I bought a Hyosung GT 250 and it was very tidy/shiny and clean.
Hmmm? I thinks to my self "I`ll try and keep this one in good condition"
WRONG WRONG WRONG
Every time I take that damm bike out of the garage , It fugging rains
I`ve put about 6000 miles on it and out of that, only about 50 miles have been in the dry????

I also have a smelly old Superdream in the garage and when I take that out , blow me down the sun shines ?
If I try to swap at the last moment , it starts to cloud over .
If I didn't know any better , I would think God is watching me

Anyway : rant over
Do any of you lot have a bike of doom?

That ''i really should go home now but my ass is already so wet it doesn't matter'' feeling

I got my current bike in 2007, the first time I went out with it I got absolutely soaked by an unpredicted major thunderstorm, and we haven't really had a decent summer since.
Did have similar thoughts at one time!

I've said it before and I'll say it again - the Gods of biking are easily angered. Do not offend them - make daily offerings and libations of oil and coolant. Remember too that they embrace irony - as can be seen in the fact that they smile upon the 250N.

I get the same thing with my Hyosung GT650R. I think the rain God thinks "urghh look at that piece of Chinese shit". Like most ignorant buggers he must be clueless as to the fact that the bike is Korean, and basically a Suzuki

If I got a quid for every time I used that line...

Just to re-enforce everything I said in the first post : I went out on the poopy-dream today and the sun was shining and the roads I was riding on were clear and dry ???

It seems to be a common misconception that bikes melt in the rain.

Don't be fooled by the looks or Honda badge, that thing was a properly cursed bike and from what I gather it's still just as bad to this day

Last bike I bought private. No wind protection, no screen (well unless you call the wee bit of plastic a screen) and I forgot to bring my ferkin gloves. I rode the hoowur 600 miles home. (Detoured to Glasgow en route) I think it pished down all the fecking way home. But that 'new bike syndrome' protected me.

It has rained since but I've not had a good soaking.
