Just wondering...

egetaseb · 04-29-2009, 10:39 AM

Since so many of us have dropped our bikes at least once, how come almost every bike for sale has this caption "NEVER DROPPED"? ??? HMMM

Netnorske · 04-29-2009, 01:26 PM

It's the same as President Clinton saying "I never had sex with that woman"...... ::)

Yellow Jacket · 04-29-2009, 02:04 PM

Yup, it depends on your definition of "dropped!"

To me, having it go over at very slow speed and stop on the floor board isn't a "drop."

Having it go over to the point the crash bars hit the ground and the tires come off the ground is a "drop."

**Cajunrider** · 04-29-2009, 02:38 PM

Good deal Bob...my one drop doesn't count now.

nighthawk11 · 04-29-2009, 03:09 PM

I'll erase my one drop too....heh, heh, heh...

**ringadingh** · 04-29-2009, 06:58 PM

If theres is no damage it wasn't really dropped, was it...

ezmoney · 04-29-2009, 07:52 PM

I thought I dropped mine twice but now I realize it was only dropped once.
Of coures if I ever sell it the add will read "never been Dropped" because Cindy was the only one who saw it and she won't tell

**Kawhead** · 04-30-2009, 12:15 AM

My two don't count either.

**glwilson** · 04-30-2009, 06:29 AM

Did I say I dropped my bike?... ::)

One more lesson from President Clinton: The answer depends on how you define "drop". I can now say with a straight face that I have never dropped my bike, I just gently laid it on the engine guards twice.

cactusjack · 04-30-2009, 10:51 AM

Well, it all depends on what your definition of "dropped" is...

dogdoc · 05-05-2009, 09:52 AM

Thats like the lost dog poster hanging in a vet's clinic. Lost our beloved pet. he has 1 eye, poor hearing, arthritis, itchy skin, rotten teeth and he is neutered. His name is LUCKY! :-)

**Top Cat** · 05-05-2009, 11:29 AM

Geez Doc, They should add another line to that poster.

"If you see him, shoot him and put him out of his misery."
