I Ride: 2006 Yamaha FZ6 | My Dad backed into my bike!
So after 5 years and 81,000 miles and not a single scratch or dent on my fuel tank, I go visit my folks in Portland and my dad knocks my FZ into the rocks. 3 big dents and one major scratched up fairing. The countless times I have warned everyone about how bikes get knocked over by people backing up, chop one up for me too. I't was so out of the way, I'm still trying to figure out how and the he managed to hit it.

That sucks. Sorry about your bike, but at least it's still rideable.

Way better than your dad backing over your wife and making her unridable. Just sayin'  |

Shush. If I wanted to demonstrate a silver lining, I woulda said: Too bad his dad didn't back over my ex. (But that might make me look selfish)  |

Your dad is just getting even for wrecking his car when you were 16. Oh wait, that was...
