....or maybe its just really bad timing.

In the space of 2 weeks the coil lead snapped...

Then I got my scooter back from the garage and...

after a couple of days the seat latch cable snapped....

then last week my rear brake cable snapped and I'm sure I can hear a slight popping sound coming from the exhaust....wtf
