| A typical commute to place of torture , I have an un-eventful groundhog sort of day, I step in some dog pooh on the way out of work and then got splashed by a errant cylcist on nearing my silver steed the SWing. I get all togged up , slip my helmet on , followed by my safety specs then realise I did not fit my ear guards so take it off and do it all again with the guards then insert and turn the ignition key and .....................................nothing , i try again and again and nothing! SHI* its happened my worse fears no battery , no power , no going home I am stuck at work after a long day...................it comes in three's they say. WEll I should have relaxed it was a loose battery connection and after 15 minutes of undressing and a screw (of the positive termnal) I'm SWinging it out of that god foraken hell hole I call work...................u gotta love the SWing aint you |

| Wow, a close call, especially at work; yuk! At first I thought you were going to tell us that the underseat light had drained your battery: or is that your first worst fear? |

| Never because of a Honda but I have spent nights on the side of the road cursing the lumpy ground and motorbikes in general. |
