Yeah, that's why I don't buy new vehicles ... I have a hard enough time as it is with old and banged up already

Oh did you hear about the rice farmers who walked into school grounds to have a sit and fancy of themselves of my bike and scratched the tank? I wasn't happy ... to say the least.

I never use mine, just don't like the idea of my lid being out in the elements like that and subject to dings. Also it would make it way more expensive should the bike tip over.
