    As always, if anything is amiss please let us know. And don't forget to vote.

    (And yes, today's summation was a little tricky, due to idle chit-chat, but the topic was very discussion worthy, so I blame Rich )

      Thanks, Bob. I got big shoulders. I can take it.

      voting for trevor. Looks like a Transformer stuck mid-transformation. He likely had a few choice words after that incident. I know he had a long recovery.

        Some pictures are kinda sad so I'm voting for Mr Redman cuz that's the funniest. They all have the capacity to make you say, "%/□{€♤•?!!" for sure.

            I gotta vote for Burque73​. That would definitely cause some choice words.

            All good entries for this one!

              Voting for Redman as it reminds me of when I fitted cheap fork gaiters and they fell apart within a year. All the front had to come off again to replace them with Volvo steering rack boots, which will last until Doomsday.
              I think I have a pic of it somewhere too, so could have put it up.

                    Got to be near the top for theme and entries, all great. Got to vote for gustovh just cause BTDT. I had that happen on a "SUNDAY AFTERNOON" to make it even worse, down near Chattanooga, appx. 100 mi. from home. Seemed the biggest OH SHEET ever till one of the guys said I've got a spare tube, I'd never known of anybody carrying a spare tube. We wadded his 18" tube in my 17" tire and made it home before dark.

                        Many pics got a reaction out of me.

                        Baat's pic was interesting in how it revealed itself. First see the drips on pavement.... ew... then look around.... then the steam-smoke.... oh... then wonder what... oh coolant maybe, gear lube... either way, oh, yikes, thst puts an end to the fun. Good photo techniique to catch the steam-smoke.
                        And all that is going on, and, Bobs responce is that needs a photo so can post and tell about it.
                        ,
                        But for Mr Roger Burque's pic, I actually had a sharp verbal utterance of "Oh, #@%&*, that WAS a good looking GK tank, what the @#$%& happened to it?".
                        So. I'll drop a vote for Burque.

                            After riding for 60 years + I’ve had quite a few of these photos happen to me. Honorable mention DR Payne, kerrfunk,Burque,Redman,Rich(and it was brand new),but the one that takes you out of the game…not including wrecks, is marvinsic for the win.

                              My vote goes to Rich82GS750TZ​. I know it's not the most catastrophic mishap pictured, but something about the picture just specifically says %#!?@.

                                Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.
