I was there helping put the front end on the bike and guy who owns the bike was there. He asked me to change the fluids out and he is the one that pointed out the drains. After bending the allen, not breaking, I told him we should hold off that something obviously wasn't right - and I came here for the assistance.

We don't need you or anyone else blowing your spout about how stupid someone else is. I'm the one that halted the potential problem. With you being perfect and knowing everything, I'm surprised you are even a member of a forum. I sure as hell would be surprised if you were here to make friends, because it appears you don't have the social skills to do so.

If you would rather critisize than help, I have no problem with you just keeping your 2 cents to yourself.
The owner didn't know where his own oil plug was?

Either he just got the bike, or you are lying.
Your posts implied he was no where around.
You said the bike was on it's side and you could have added oil, but YOU (not the owner) decided not to waste the oil.
You said you consulted "a buddy" (not the owner) about warming the motor and he told you not to.
You NEVER made even a hint that the owner was present.

If you change your words now the edit date will show that you did.

I hope none of my freinds try to "help" me like that.
You really should have asked your questions before putting a wrench on that bike.
You almost did some serious damage.

Yet you are mad at me. Sorry you got away without the damage, for you deserved it.

I'm not mad at all. I feel bad for you that you got an attitude like that.

I did not imply anything, you just assumed and shot your mouth off for everyone to see and can't get away from it so you just post something to put me down to try and save face. Just let it go.

You don't need me, and I sure as hell don't need you. So don't go away mad, just, go away.
