OK, let me count the ways. First one, had my first Harley for 2 weeks, hit some road wash gravel on a good lean, and totaled my Superglide. Fixed the Superglide. Number two. Left the bank drive-thru on my Superglide, thought I had steered clear of the oil slick in the drive-thru. Got to the stop sign, down goes the front wheel. Number three. Had the FLHS for 5 days and took it on a trip. Was in Tennessee and the sky opened up. Was going down a hill on a pretty wicked curve and saw a gas station with an overhang. Had to stomp the rear brake on the Superglide, not near as much pressure was needed on the FLHS. The back end came around and kissed the front end. I was able to save it this time. I think I will stop here.
 
I like to have a few beers while washing my bikes and have twice rolled them back to clean and dry the wheels and forgot to put the kickstand down and had them crash to the ground.
IS THAT STUPID ENOUGH FOR YOU!
 
Pulled away with the lid to the tour pak open. Went to start the bike up when it was sitting in the garage. I ususally park her in nuetra, but this time she was in 1st. A big leap forward.
 
I got in a hurry at the end of the build and when I took the gas tank off, I forgot to disconnect the fuel line. Pulled it off and broke it. $47.95 for getting in a hurry. Live and learn. Biggest bone head mistake during the build.
 
This happened on my last bagger. After a 300 mile day in the 95 degree sun no windshield, stopped the bike got off and walked away, never occured to me to put the kick stand down. Needless to say my baby fell hard. It was not pretty.
 
HaHaHa I'm sure your wife made you pay for that too! You must have taken off just as she lifts her leg to get on...

This one is my favorite so far!
