haveugot1 0 Posted August 23, 2013 Took the bandit for mot today before I sold it, mot tester was moving the beast when I turned hears a crash and thestupid bastard dropped her. Very little damage which I hid from the dealer. Then he said I wont charge you. f****ng right u wont I said. If I was keeping the bike it would of cost him a few quid. How I never broke his face I dont no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BanditMike 0 Posted August 23, 2013 You couldn't write it mate Problem with your (now ex-) bandit is that it will stand out, given the polishing and how clean the bike is/was. Sounds like it wasn't spotted when you sold her Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haveugot1 0 Posted August 24, 2013 I was close to knocking him out dick.Yes he was pushing it lee. Its not normally the mot station I use lee. He had put the stand down put must have pushed it forward slightly before putting all the weight on it. Luckily it landed on his leg. Then he said my leg hurts, to which I said ' so will your face if u dont stop moaning'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not everyone is reasonable as you've been mate.Which MOT station was it? Could be one to avoid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gravelrash 0 Posted August 24, 2013 Its a good job you have a calm restrained character Mark I'm very surprised he wasn't picking his teeth up off the floor. How typical though, a mate had sold his Honda Hornet to a dealer in part ex on a VFR 800 day before it went we went for one last ride and he put it in a ditch just on the approach to Hartside cafe fairing indies cases all needed replacing At least this wasn't your fault and the deal on the Busa went ahead mate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
