hey; lighten up on the guy. It was obviously meant to be a joke, & you can see he has a Harley himself.

Neat thing about the old mouse trap. Clutch cable or shifting lever gone just tie a rope or put belt around trap and of you go. Like having a suicide shiftier.

BTW, that bastard is on there tight now!

I think he didn't give you a lift back to your bike for the same reason you didn't ask for one. He was probably fixated on the idea of helping you do something to fix your bike and you were fixated on having found the peg and getting it on the bike. He asked if he could help and instead of thinking of asking for a ride back to the bike, you stated you were good. He probably thought later in his drive, "man I should have offered to take him back to his bike". Just like you later thought, "man, why didn't he offer to give me a ride?". LOL, happens to all of us at one time or another.

Glad you found your peg and got it back on.
