Re: What did you do to or for or with your Laverda today?

For heaven's sake guys, I was just having a little laugh and bigging-up Cor's incredible achievement. Relax and keep posting! (and note the smiley face).
 
I took it seriously. I thought Paul was an utter utter bastard for demeaning my pitiful contribution to the monde di Laverda :LOL:

Whoooo. Coupla triple barrels and heads grafted onto a modified Guzzi crank and crankcase and off you go. Shouldn't be too hard for someone like Red  8) :D

I hope you have good insurance Chris. Similar thing happened to a bloke I used to work with. Missus crashed car into house. Vehicle insurer said it was covered by house insurance. House insurance (different company) said it was covered by vehicle third party. Both of them refused the claim. In the end he had to take legal action which basically involved filing a lawsuit against his wife! It was eventually settled out of court. One of the insurers (or possibly both) paid up.

I don't think they will cover the bikes  :'(
Honda CT110 took the brunt, slamming it into the side of the Aprillia, which in turn poked two holes in the ZX7R faring.

CT110 now has 90 degree steering lock and has the shortest rear guard ever seen.
Aprillia and Kawasaki haven't been moved as the insurance guys want to see them in situ. FFS.

Sounds like the car is a write off, and shed covered by insurance.

On the positive side, no one was hurt and the right roller door in the picture is where my boat used to live. Phew.
And I moved the WR400 and VOR from there a few weeks back too. Phew, phew.

Red and Maxene dropped in for a visit. I tried to kill them with carbon monoxide fumes by starting up the RGS mongrel in the workshop with the doors closed. At least Red didn't say anything too negative about my bike build. But that might only have been because he was busy choking on exhaust.

Sorry Chris but I have to ask the question. How exactly did she manage to park the car smack bang in the middle of the 2 doors. What did you do..?
 
there are so many videos these days from drivers that lost control of their vehicle and drove into shops etc.  - I always wondered how this happens?!? simply using the wrong pedal? I can't believe that... 

Oh - and following normal female behavior: I assume she managed to make you responsible for it, right? In the way of: "This would never have happened if you had not....!!!"

If she did not yet, pretty sure she will shortly...
 
Cool! That's the spirit!

Erm, not doing any chroming in the near future I suppose  ;)
