WTH ??? :D I wrenched on Triumphs lo those many years ago . My favorite was " It won't run , but I know it is that little black thing under the gas tank , Joe Bob said you had that little black thing and would probably give it to me" ??? :D OR " I know it is the (take your pick of component) that is bad". Me , "So buy that part and fix it" . "Well,I did replace it , the dang thing still won't run , but my (neighbor, uncle Bob , older brother) who had a MC 20 years ago said it had to be that part" ::) :D Dusty
99% of Bike forsale on Craigslist only needs a $6 part easily found on eBay to make it run or the carbs have been rebuilt they just need some fine tuning.
Both of you think you are talking about the same thing. Trust me folks, it happens.
(Ring.)"Hello, Motomoda.""Is that Pete Roper?""Yes it is.""Ah, good. You probably don't remember me my name is Dweebly. We met at a rally some years ago. You fixed my Griso for me when it blew its fuel line off at the rally.""Sorry, no recollection of that. Have you ever bought it to me for service or bought parts off me?""Well, I crashed the other day. Broke the footrest plate and gear lever and the rocker cover is busted but it won't start at the moment and I was wondering if I could pick your brain?""OK, so you'd like me to order you a gear lever, a footrest hanger and a rocker cover for starters?""Oh, no, you're far too expensive! I'll be getting them off ebay, hopefully second hand. I was just hoping you could help me get it going again.""Have you ever bought anything off me or had me work on your bike?" "Well no. Apart from that time you saved my bacon at that rally.""But you want me to diagnose your problems over the phone, for free, and then you'll buy the parts off fleabay?""Well yeah. Your parts are at dealer prices. Much too expensive. All I want is some advice!""How does 'F*ck you, cockhead' sound?"(Click.)
Fantastic photo :D It makes you wonder about this persons ability to make decisions about anything as he goes through life.
