Fugdbdt Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 So - I received the crash bars for the Scout. Open up the package - And start removing the brake side forward controls. Then I remove the horn. Then I begin removing the shifter side forward controls. The last bolt is stuck on like a MF'er. So I get the breaker bar - And put some muscle into it. FINALLY - I get it out... > > > > > > > > And the Scout falls over on top of me. You see - The kickstand is mounted to the forward control. > > > > > > > > > > > So I'm sitting on my garage floor... With the Scout laying on me... Wondering what to do... > > > > > > > > > Luckly - I am sitting with my feet towards the front tire. I push the Scout back up onto it's wheels with my right arm - While trying to restart the bolts with my left hand. Then I put it up on the jack - And installed the crash bar. > > > > > > > > > I'm tired. I'm going to bed. Thanks, Danny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Yeah...how's the scoot? Lucky it wasn't a Chief and a few pounds heavier! Seriously, as I was reading it, I thought you were going to tell us that after getting everything stripped down, that the bars were the wrong ones. Hope you don't have any bruises.

ddstockton Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Oh man that sucks! I'm glad you were there to break the fall of your bike. I found out the hard way that there is no locking design of the sidestand for the chief. Apparently you can't park it on a slight grade with the motor warming up. :uhoh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANT Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Hey Danny, were not laughing at you were lauging with you. Hope the bikes ok. Later Al Speak for yourself, I'm laffing around him and at a slight angle. As for someone asking if he has any pictures..........just how the fuck do you think he could have accomplished that? Pinned under a bike, somehow you expect him to be able to take a pic of himself? I mean, really.............he's probably too stupid to remember to take the lens cap off! -ANT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paolabob Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 This could all have been avoided by a good set of crash bars This is an old thread but it still made me laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
