I asked her what the hell she was thinking along with a few other choice words. So I need a new tank, where is the best place to get one? 2001 Dyna Wide Glide.
I keep hearing that if you havn't dropped your bike that you have not dropped it yet. Does this count?
Scenarios like this one are why rule one at my house is don't touch the bike. If you want or need to touch a bike buy your own. Leave mine be, if it needs to be moved I will move it.

sounds like a good time to start teaching her how to handle the bike
Tanks dented already....
Perhaps she was thinking she would like to ride before the drop ?

Put her in a riding class to teach her how to handle a bike is all I would say to do.

I imagine you were thinking "Kick ***! 311 ROCKS! But why did Midnitevil post this link? 311 lives in my CD player on a permanent basis."

Or, perhaps you were thinking "Them dang yung whippersnappers and ther yelling and screamin' rock and roll crap! I ought to send that smartass kid a good Perry Como link! Now that there is some snazzy mewzik!"

LOL
I like me some JETBOY and maybe some old Nirvana or Pantera. Funny, lived next to Perry Como in Jupiter, Florida from '89-'91. Quiet and kept to himself, but he hit thousands of golfballs from his dock out into the intracoastal waterway.
