Angry OK Boys and Girls!

When daddy and/or mommy tell you not to do something, it's not because we are being mean. We don't want you to get hurt or damage something.
You know, like climbing on and tipping over daddy's Harley. ERGGGGG!

Don't tell me...they climbed on and knocked it over? Are they okay, other than scared crapless? How much damage to the bike?

Oh, that sucks. Hope they are ok. Thats one of the main reasons why I have a engine guard, just incase mine were to get knocked over somehow.

I stopped at their house today to take my 7 year old for a ride. She got suited up and I strapped her helmet on and said, "stay away from the bike till I come out". "OK daddy."
My ex's boyfriend was showing me a pic of some pedophile they dealt with earlier and not 10 seconds later I hear her screaming.
I ran out front and she was on the ground and the bike was on the right side. She was ok with not a scrape. The bike on the other hand, snapped front brake lever, bent right side mirror, big gouge in the front fender, bent rear brake arm and scraped the crap out of the right saddle bag.
Poor kid was so upset saying she was the worst daughter ever. I was mad mind you, but it was heartbreaking seeing how upset she was. Limped the bike home and after 90 minutes or so I straightened the bent items, touched up the fender and got the saddlebag looking ok. Ran back over to their house and gave her her ride. She was so happy and it made my day!

Someone should have explained this to my 55 Y/O, 130# sister when she thought she'd "just push (my 95 ultra) it forward a little bit to make room" and almost got trapped under it when she pushed it right off the jiffy stand.

Saw on the local news yesterday that a one year old down in Phoenix was exploring around the house and pulled a 40" T.V. down on top of it. They said the kid was in Children's Hospital in pretty bad shape. You can't take your eyes off the lil ones for even a second. Glad the OP's daughter is OK and got her ride.
