I saw this today in a department store in Bangkok. It's a display in front of a clothing store. You can almost feel the suffering it's living through being stuck there like that. It's f@cking shameful. Facepalm emoticon

Yes, indeed, sir. The mudguard installation is spectacular, is it not?

I should have called the police and reported it as a crime.

I never have even thought that you could actually install the mudguard backwards. This is definitely a crime against scooterism.

If you think that mudguard is bad, just imagine the builder's Ikea furniture. Razz emoticon

I don't think it's really installed as it's not bolted in anywhere. It's just hanging there backwards. I think the person couldn't get the nuts and bolts lined up (I wonder why 😛) and just left it as is. It reminds me of mountain bikes at Walmart with the forks installed backwards.

If not bolted I'm pretty sure you can by jiggling it a little bit twist it the the right position.

This is a perfect example why you should not sit on the scoot while on the center stand This is exaggerated because of the thick thing under the pegs but still !

That mudguard will never be bolted in until it's turned around the right way. All they have to do is take the front wheel off and rotate it around. Somehow that escaped their thinking. I'm guessing the floor is significantly bent from from all the fat fuckjers sitting on it to have their photos taken.
