Quote from: pandyBoyfriend to the rescue (thanks, Sweetie!!!)!! He gets a sushi lunch this weekend! And thanks to Doug's Motocycle Service in San Mateo. New after-market pair of mirrors for 20 bucks (beats 1 Suzuki mirror for $65!!!!!)

Mirror's all fixed; hand's feeling much better...but you can bet I'll be looking for that mirror during my commute tomorrow!! I wanna know what hit me! :x

Will keep those shops in mind for the future, scratch! Thanks for the suggestions!  :)

Srinath: maybe we have BIG birds here!  :P It seems that we can't dodge the SUV's and their parts no matter HOW hard we try!  :o

On my second nighthawk I was riding along 237 on my commute waaaay back in 1997 when my left side cover (under seat) flies off ... I am so diasppointed (its a pretty bike really) and I cry and grovel and what not and go and buy a red one from the SF cycle salvage (closed now) for $15 ... Then I have an ugly red cover on my pretty blue bike ... and I am riding along 237 next week when I spot a blue speck ... I ride past it ... but pull over (left lane carpool whooo hooo) on left shoulder ... and walk back and pick it up ... a few few scrapes ... but nearly perfect ... Then in 1998 I sell off that bike to this friend ... who now lives in Livermore CA ... where I used to live ... Then in 2001 I buy a nighthawk ... and its the same color as my #2 ... and I promptly swap with him ... so on my nighthawk I have that old cover I lost and then found on 237 almost 8 years ago.
Cool.

Glad that worked out for ya'!! Now...if only I could fine a purple tank at the side of the road....and a purple fender...and purple plastics.... I'll have to keep my eyes open!  :)

As for this morning, my boyfriend's first thought was that someone had thrown something at me. I told him, naw..Srinath lives on the other side of the country.  :P   :kiss:  

pandy :lol:

Sorry to hear about the mirror and the hand.  But look on the bright side, if things keep hitting you, you could paint the new replacement parts purple and before you know it you would have a completly purple bike :)

Quote from: seshadri_srinathPS : this from the girl who said my attitude towards women is the healthiest she's seen ...  :lol:  ...

This was the first thing that I thought of when I saw that post. Unfortunately I couldn't find any pictures online quickly so I captured it off the DVD. Awesome movie.

Looks like it was a bad week to stop sniffing glue.

My not professional opinion is to watch carefully newspapers looking for a news about a rare bird extintion, perhaps the object that hit Pandy's mirror was the last of a kind...

Hmm... can't seem to find a picture of srinath. That makes the GIMPing difficult.

I spent WAY too much time on this. It didn't turn out as well as I had hoped it would, either. Maybe I'll try again, later.
