$476 for the Dirtbike Dan incident.
Yep, just got off the phone with our boy Zach at Alcoa. Ordered all the parts needed to get the 12 back to normal.
Throw in the $280 Ray Ban's that got destroyed and this became the most expensive DG trip yet.

There are two needle bearings that are part of the clutch cable bracket and related parts in the clutch cover. After talking to Rick he said it was worth the few bucks to replace them instead of trying to remove them from the old cover and re-install in the new. They are only $4.95 each.

I saw your gaybans fly out of your pocket and tried to get back to them before they were damaged. Too late ,some ignorant fuck in a cage ran over them.
I'm just glad you didn't get hurt. Rick was fast at stopping and getting his camera out of the trunk wasn't he? That boy was on a mission!

Cheap..........
That's not bad Otis, $476 is what I consider a very cheap "Get Off". Good move on ordering the bearings and the seal for the CC.

Yu could sand and paint mine. There are no gouges, it's smooth. I know I'd fuck it up if I tried to fix it so I'm buying a new one for $105.
