If you have frame sliders wreckers, get rid of them!
someone lately told me that framesliders on a duc treliss frame is not a good idea because the trellis is to support down pressures and not lateral pressure and when you lay it down it will twist the frame. is that what happened manny? bang head

Nothing that dramatic or drastic. It just made the round hole in the frame into an oval. No cracks or anything, and it doesn't look like it goes very far back towards the actual places where metal contacts metal. Basically, it just bent the flange a bit. But insurance will see a $3500 frame and $1200 labor.  Shocked

We'll see how that works out...

Do you think this stems from the "Curse of the Yellow Bike"!!!!!  First the hand, then this....but with this curse things come in 2's I think?  So might be good for now:)  Mine came in 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 well....ok I don't count anymore.  Hope it all works out for you and is over quickly.

Well are you still officially the owner?Huh?? or maybe if you are still in relative proximity it null and voids the curse:)

Ah it's not the bike's anyways----life just happens----some are luckier than others.

Without back luck, I'd have none at all!!!!  [moto] Grin Cool

First the insurance wanted to total it, but then they saw my list of fancy shiny bits and decided it can be repaired.  Grin
