    A sister in law and her boyfriend bought a used Low Rider. He had been having some problems.
    Showed him where the bike had been worked on and was throwed together. I do not have the time to work on it. And I'm not buying any parts for it.
    I told him about a good indy mechanic. He didn't listen and took it to Kingwood Harley.
    The dealer called him and said somebody used BEll wire to put the small apes on his bike.
    He told me and I said What. Bell wire.
    You can't use bell wire on a scoooter dude. The dude you bought it from screwed you.

    He should take an old bell phone over then and beat the guy with it...

    I wouldn't do anything to it, I'd go get the estimate, have the dealer hold the bike
    and call the seller, if he won't do anything, then take him to small claims court
    get an affidavit from the dealer about the work with pictures.

    You should help your SIL's boyfriend, he might even give you a redneck bud...

    Sorry man. I got to work threw OCT.
    The only time I get to see my Wife is on the Weekend.
    Count that 2 days a week.
    Ain't sharing my time with no body.

    I ain't going over and workin on somebody's bike that is not a real buddy to me and is not kin to me.
    I'm spending it with my Wife.
    The OL comes 1st Period no if ands or buts.

    Told the dude to let me look at the bike before he bought it.
    But do you think he listened. No
    He took it to the dealer without askin.
    So let him wear on my sister in law till her money runs out.
    He's like 56 Don't work, she is 64 and does work.
