Close call, weird Karma?
Stopped by to pick up a couple of items at the supermarket and noticed an old guy (76 years young he said) oggeling my ride, I asked him if he wanted to take it for a spin, he said no thanks, he gave up riding about 10 years ago when he had his LAST ACCIDENT! He siad he rode for 40 years.
We talked for about 20 minutes, mostly about his accidents and with a hand shake I was outa the parking lot waiting in traffic.
It was then sitting in traffic reflecting about the old mans 40 years of mishaps that I had a strange feeling? The back of my bike was starting to go lower and lower and the front end seemed to be getting higher? I looked in my rear view and the car behind me was NOW on my ***! Literaly! The lady behind me dropped something on the floor of her car and tried to pick it and slipped off the break for a few seconds and drifted onto my right saddle bag.
I motioned for her to pull over and I inspected everything and to my surprise nothing was damaged, just a bit of paint marring, a little buffing and good as new!
It was then that I thought?
Has the older gentlemans bad-biker-Karma pass on to me?
I immediately went to the local HD dealer and washed my hands in a quart of HD360...it's the only way I know how to get rid of Bad-biker-karma.

Don't know if just washing your hands in the oil is enough .. you may have to lay down and wallow in it for at least 15 minutes or until your riding gear is throughly soaked. After that, your bad karma is a thing of the past (and who ever does your laundry will also get a warm-fuzzy feeling when they see it)!!

Dude - you gotta go back and park your bike in the same spot where you met him and follow these directions:
[ul][*] Get off bike on the opposite side you usually dismount.[*] Walk backwards three times around your bike;[*] Sit on bike backwards for the same amount of time you talked with the gentleman. [*] Do all this while dressed in a pink tutu.
[/ul]
Its the only way!

Do the pink thing and the karma will change, Especially if there's any other bikers around...
I think you need to go to the video section and watch TRAINING 25 times...

RE: Close call, weird Karma?
Sounds like you were very nice and courteous to the old gent. You even offered your precious scooter up to him. More likely you got some good karma. If not for that, suppose the idiot behind you was travelling 35mph when she had her "lapse of judgement" and rubbed your paint....
