..got forced off the road..
« on: September 05, 2009, 07:59:45 PM »
..fortunately I was only running about 20 mph, slowing down in a line of traffic..

..car came up beside me, and just eased over to the right, forcing me to bail onto a gravel lot..

..so much for my highly visible green LEDs, cauz this happened last night..

..I was already applying my brakes, and when my front tire lost resistance in the gravel, it locked up..

 >:(

I hope the idiot's insurance will pay for the repair.

On the bright side your okay and your scooter at least runs, mine has been put up more than a month now tryin to get this kit on. I wouyld trade some scratches and dings to fix up rather than a motor that won't run right any day.

hey 'wordslinger'... did you heal from your wreck? Sure looks like your scooter did.
I love this forum! It's the best i have found; Very informative, especially because of knowledable peeps.ex.: 'wordslinger', 'shaka', 'Axy' or 'Zombie' just to name four...
