Who's to blame

[VFR1200rider]

Following on from a previous thread in the workshop, long story short.

My missus has had a CBR125r for 3 years with no running issues (she dropped it numerous times but it still ran), I have ragged the arse off that bike numous times with no issues.

Her son offered to buy it and started riding it after doing his CBT, (at this point I should say he hasn't paid a penny towards buying the bike).

Around 3 weeks in to him riding the bike it was totally dead, (I came home and found him trying to bump start it). Him and a biker mechanic buddy messed around with the bike and couldn't get it running, I bridged the starter relay and it started instantly.

He's bawling his eyes out about how much it's going to cost to repair, saying it's not his fault etc.

I may be able to fix it, first off I can't be arsed with the cold weather repairs, (I've got my own bikes to fix and can't be bothered until the weather improves), and I didn't break it so why should I fix it.

Basically my wife is losing out on around £1800 on her 125 because her son offered to buy it, he broke it and is sticking to the "I dint do nuffin bruv" BS.

Should I leave him to fix it as a lesson, or should I fix it so my missus might start sucking my willy again, (that's a joke for all the youngsters), should I fix it so that she can get some money back on the bike

stop gatekeeping and teach him how to fix it, you were a youngster who knew nothing at some point too.

Bonus points; he might be able to fix it in the future without you needing to put effort in and you might get your dick sucked.

stinkwheel Well I just had my hands up a pigs fanny. Which makes your concerns pale into insignificance.

Well, I'd suggest it's whoever cut the ignition wires like you mentioned in your previous thread that is to blame for it not starting.

If a teenager has already messed around with it you can guarantee that your time and money would be better spent on a Fleshlight.
