Good night I can't hide anywhere Dodgy

It's only scratches. whose to say I if I turn it in to insurance company now I don't fall over again? If the saddlebag or fairing were crushed they would get replaced, but they are fine, just scratched up a little. Function over form. It's a tool!

Strong the power of my CB1100forum Secrete Decoder Ring (the only known one) is. Especially when RLETS close by they are. Wink

It’s scary that it stretches to FJRs. Or is there a hidden nugget in your garage?

My motorcycle training program sponsor keeps a number of molded black plastic tubes with rounded ends at the ranges for those times when a student has a tip-over on a training bike and there's not time to fetch another bike. You just pound it onto the stump of the lever with the palm of your hand and away you go. I keep one under my seat in case of such calamities.
