This is a thread dedicated to all the ridiculous people you have bought your bike from or the ridiculous things they've done to your bike.






I'll start off with my Bike. I got a good deal on it, looked decent but this was my first "real" bike so i didn't know that much about them. I rode it for about a month before i did anything but change the oil on it (I was new to bikes) to find that he did not have an air filter on it :picard:. So a new top end took care of that

The newest adventure is my swing-arm. I guess some people don't believe in chain sliders or adjusting chains, because i have no idea how else this would happen.

His fix? Stack a bunch of washers inbetween the seal and silicone the chain guard. IMGA0664.JPG

On both my kawis I brought the bike home checked the filter and it was in pieces in the bottom of the box :picard:

when I go to buy bikes I always ask if I can fully inspect the bike I take off the seat to check airfilter and subframe because I once bought a bike that had a cracked subframe

The whole airfilter thing must be a new concept to onedream, because I recall her telling me that the one in her kx502f was eaten by a rat and replaced with a rats nest, consisting mostly of filter foam. Im pretty sure she rode it like that too...
