Default Bad luck at its finest

Ok so just wanted to put this story out to some people who will feel my pain... just got my bike out of the shop about 4 or 5 days ago. come to work park on the side of the building come out side about 2 hours later to find a guy who works on our hvac units by my bike...i said hi he asked if it was my bike i said yeah told me how nice it looked and then asked if the crack was already there....i question...what crack...i walk to the front of my bike and sure enough my wind screen is cracked look a little further down and my whole front fairing is about to shatter my lights ...cracked ...front fender destroyed...so i said ummm NO ! he said i thought not...what happened was he managed to drop his ladder off the side of the building and guilitine my bike...pretty crappy ... the only good end will be in about a month when i get my bike back because it had a completely custom paint job so now i get to get my bike completely repainted and my whole front end replaced...yeah i am still pretty pissed though lol just thought i would share

yeah the company is paying for all the damages done i had called them up to talk to someone and i just started to hit random extension numbers just to get a human and ironically i got to the president of the company lol ...he assured me that what ever need to get done would be taken care of so i think a 3-5 thousand dollar paintt job is in order...i usually dont try to be a dick like if it was my car ...whatever but my bike...that cut me deep.

Sounds like he was trying to get out of it at first by asking you if the crack was already there. Who does that?????? Good thing you got the information.
