Default annoyed with my mod guy

This thread is basically me blowing off steam...

So, a few months ago, my mod guy installed Woods 777 cams into my 2012 SG and I loved them. I decided on going the extra mile by having a Big Bore 107 kit installed. My mod guy is top class and does excellent work. It took more than a month to get a firm date for me to drop off my bike.

My wife and I went on a cruise and when I got back, I called my mod guy and he said to bring it in immediately because he has a lot going on. The very next day, I hoped on the bike and time the 1 hour ride to his shop to drop off the bike. I noticed he had a few of his show piece bikes in the store room. The next day, as I was sitting on my toilet and looking at Instagram, I saw his post saying "Heading to Daytona!" I'm pissed, WTF, didn't he tell me in advance that he was packing up to be in Daytona for a week. I could have waited until he got back before running my *** up there. The day before I just came back from a long *** cruise and I was exhausted.

I know he didn't take my old *** 2012 with him to Daytona but it would have been nice had he provided me with that information. And, it's in the 60's here in the Carolinas. I could have been riding and enjoying myself....

Again, this was me just bitching...

I was in Daytona over the weekend and might have seen your bike. Is it black?

Why were you exhausted after a long relaxing cruise where all your meals were prepared, your room was cleaned, your bed made daily and the staff was there to cater to your every whim and desire? Of course, I could have assumed too much already, were you a paying guest on this oceanic voyage or a stowaway?
