Posted: 16:21 - 10 Jan 2022 Post subject: Bike got hit while parked up |
|
|
Some dirty scummy rat bastard hit my beloved Kwaky while she was sleeping in the parking bay across the road from my house. From the damage on the right fairing panel it was reversed into and took a heavy gouge out of it, it was then pushed backwards and toppled over hitting the left fairing panel and handlebar on the pavement. I think that it resting up on the kerb was a good thing as it meant the generator cover didn't touch the road and fuck me for a new stator/ rotor again!
She got knocked over and they fucked off without leaving a note or anything. No witnesses, no CCTV, nothing. Went to the Police and they told me without evidence they can't do anything about it but would "look into it".
I went into the Chemist that's just up the road a little and asked if anyone went in there with information or if their CCTV covered that area (it doesn't, we checked and it only covered the frontage and steps into the store). I also went to a house a few doors down in case their Ring doorbell caught anything (it didn't, the angle wasn't wide enough anyway).
Damages were:
1. Left-hand fairing panel is shattered and cracked at the upper part near the screen,
2. Right-hand fairing panel has a heavy gouge taken out of the panel,
3. Left-hand wing mirror sheared off,
4. Left-hand hand-guard buckled out of shape and plastic guard snapped at screwed connection.

What really annoyed me is that the mirror was replaced at the same time the handlebar and sprockets were replaced and the handguards were only just put on her last weekend!
Well, I went onto eBay and got two used fairing panels in the same colour, two new wing mirrors with extenders, Barkbuster handguards and a new saddle since the one I have on it is a bit fucked on the inside for a job lot at £220.
Since I am going to have the fairings off, I think I will take the time to put a load of tape-backed foam on the frame to stop some of the fairing buzz which does my tits in. ____________________ PRESENT: 2018 BMW S1000XR SE Sport.

It's an utter shit when something you have worked hard for gets damaged through no fault of your own. Sadly it's the way of the world now, Quick, fuckoff before anyone sees us.
The police just aren't interested until you give whoever a kicking. Then see them take an interest.... in you. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |
