.......My riding season is now over. Picked up my new 2010 FXDWG today and as I was leaving the gravel parking lot somehow me and the bike ended up on the ground. I got up and then promptly went back down in excruciating pain as my knee gave out. I just got back from the Base medical clinic where the doc said something about a possible fracture of the tibular plateau or something like that. I have to go to the local hospital for a CT Scan tomorrow morning to confirm it. As for the bike I need a new rear brake pedal, there's a dent in the gas tank and the right mirror and exhaust are scratched.
No worries about the bike, that can all be fixed. Just look after yourself for now. Another way to look at it is you now have some down time to plan all your modifications!
But why in the world would a Stealer have a gravel parking lot?
That does suck. I wonder how often that happens?...... new bike owner dumps his brand new bike in the parking lot 30 seconds after taking delivery.... often enough it seems that I've heard of it happening a few times now. I guess with all the excitement of your new toy your brain just freezed up or something. Oh well; good luck with the rehab and hopfully the repairs aren't too costly.
