Rocksters - appealing

Post by rockster.ch »

Yes they are. As it was snowing horridly last night, I left mine on Zurich Bahnhofstrasse - where the road is paved with gold - and someone has obviously been interested in it.

To the point where they've managed to flatten the battery.

I assume highbeams come on without keys inserted? Trip meter also reset - but I don't think that affects my battery ;)

So I wait for the man with the cable to stick into my socket :(

I now retract my statement of hating the person who touched my bike. They were only trying to turn off the sidelight so I would not return to a bike without power.

Seems that some donutbrained idiot locked the steering - in position P. Parking light - on? Check.

Dummy.... :roll:

I rode home 20 miles in the snow on mine here in the UK. I was surprised at how stable it was although it would have been handy to turn off the ABS.

Considering that we get gridlock as soon as we get a few flakes of snow up here I didn't mind being on the bike.

Anyway, the sun's out now even in Yorkshire, and I'm off to play!
