I'm a *******

GalaxyBlue · Sep 20, 2010

Well, After a SUPER FANTASTIC weekend in Toas, Sin_Loki,HRZ and myself headed back to Albuquerque to part ways with HRZ and head west.

ummm.... That separation didn't last long. I was leading Loki to the gas station at the Route 66 Casino and missed the correct driveway and ended up in the Diesel fueling area. Instead of turning around and going into the car fueling are correctly, I decided to just hop off a curb and take a short cut.

Mind you, I have dropped off a curb many times before without incident, But this time was different... I was in gravel, And the tires sank about an inch below the curb removing the needed ground clearance.

The damage:

Smashed my Muzzy header into the bottom of the oil pan, And caused a major leak. I have not felt soo ******* stupid on a bike. I even had some Harley riders come over and express their sympathy... <_<

This little video is compements of Loki Clicky...Thanks! :****:

Anyway, I called HRZ and said i had a problem... He came out with a trailer and hauled me back to Albuquerque and stayed with him and Family. Thank you SO much. :good:

So, Now i am looking fokr someone to repair it locally today, Which is Monday... Hence, All things MC related are closed.

More on this later.

Very sorry to hear about your FJR oilpan, Adam! Muy Bueno on you HotRodZilla, for helping out a Fellow Los Robustos M/C Member with his on the road bike problem!

SkooterG · Sep 20, 2010

Dude! YOU ARE A *******!!!!

Sorry buckaroo, no feel good post from me. That was a pretty ******* stupid thing to do. An expensive lesson for sure.

If it makes you feel any better, your being a bonehead won't change the fact that I love you like the ******* step-brother I thankfully never had.

:****:

Hugs & Kisses!

Can't wait to see the footage of this one.

WOW, Adam.... what was you thinking?? Looks like a HD was parked there... Can you JB Weld it and get home???

If it can be welded and your not in a hurry send it to me and I'll fix it no charge.

Adam,

Since you are looking to repair it locally, are you now home in Kingman? If so, how did you get your bike home so quick?

dcarver · Sep 20, 2010

Yes, you are!

Oh well, it's hard to be perfect huh?

FJRBluesman · Sep 20, 2010

Offically confirmed, thank you.

Bummer Adam, sorry this happened.

Hopefully you'll be race ready soon. Big props to HRZ!

Mohawk · Sep 20, 2010

Oh crapola bud...but think of the brightside...yes there is a brightside...that coulda happened Thursday...

good luck....

Bungie · Sep 20, 2010

The hell... what is it with you having bad luck when you go to rallys?

On the upside, I had a blast shootin' the **** with you and Greg on Sat night. Hell, we even raced aux lights in the parking lot!

I dunno. Maybe it has less to do with being a ******* and more to do with karma. :angry2:

Sorry to hear about your bad judgement luck, Adam. Hope you get it repaired and get home soon.

madmike2 · Sep 20, 2010

Adam....

1.) Admitting your a dumb @$$ is the first step to healing.

2.) Dood....I'm sorry to hear any time an FJR is leaking vital body fluids.

3.) Uhm...we of the...er..."full size" category should take a litle more care when negotiating difficult road surfaces. :blink:

I hope you can find someone to weld it for you. A little RTV in place of the gasket should get you home where you will then have more options.

If karma's a *****...which one is karma?

GalaxyBlue · Sep 21, 2010

I have to get this out...

HRZ, I love ya man!

Not only did he drop everything after JUST walking in the door to his house, And scrambling to get a trailer and pick my ******* up, But he put me up in the 5 Star accommodations AKA: The HRZ Hilton.

The next morning after coming up empty on any shop open on monday (Yes, RS was closed according to the non responsive phone and the website), And all the local rental companies refused to rent a pick-up one way, Mr. Zilla made an executive decision and told me to grab my **** and lets go!

He drove my ******* and my injured FJR to Kingman!!! I am at a loss for words to describe the respect and gratitude i have for this man... Thank you again!
