My kawasaki dealer years ago had a guy buy this sweet bike (don't remember what it was). Its outside, they sign all the papers... he starts it... goes to head out of the parking lot... gases it... has to cross like 4 lanes to make the left turn. Well he crosses the 4 lanes... and it was like this.... going straight, straight, straight, "ok turn", straight, curb, boom, crash, bang, sidewalk, OOPS... he never turned... salesman walked over, picked up the bike and wheeled it to service. The squid was like "what are you doing?" He said, "taking it back" said the salesman. "Why?" "Cause you can't ride it anymore today, you broke it." BYE!

Funny... I saw a very similar thing happen outside of a BigDog dealership... Dude bought a brand new BD and ripped out of the parking lot trying to show off... as he made a left turn it sounded like he was revving the shit out of the thing and dumped the clutch... The bike spun right out from under him... fuckin' retard.

First off I would have beat down the person who kept pointing out to me that I have a $75,000 bike. No crap. I remember the price from when I signed the papers. Now go get on your Vespa and leave me alone.

Anyways this video will always be a classic. Brand New GSXR1000, Full Suzuki Leathers and a friend ready to video tape your maden voyage. The only part is you didn't check the Tire Shine the dealer through on.

No kidding. That and the disrespect... the owner had a lot more self control than I would, to the brother and the douche with his camera phone.

I could understand letting a friend ride my bike and them having a mishap. We all know shit happens. That woudln't bug me too much. I'd just ask them to do what they can to help me fix it.

Or see if that guy who stole that other Ducati has parted out the most rare bike in the world in hopes of making some cash.

I don't even know why they put lights and blinkers on those things.
