Dead battery on 401

Ted certified both of my bikes, first bike when I bought and sold it, second bike when I bought it. He didn't blindly sign the papers. He also certified bikes for friends and I haven't heard about him just signing papers. Hopefully you have proof, because as someone said, he should really sue you.

I watched him as he checked my odometer and nothing else. I don't have an issue with it..I needed to transfer ownership and I knew the routine.

EDIT: Having said that, he DID look at my bike so my original statement is incorrect. I'm not trying to trash Ted so I apologize. My bike was in good shape and well maintained so there was really no issue with it.

Seems like you are a lucky gal with 9 lives.

Hey Taras,

I rolled out around 3:30 so I may have just missed you. However, if you saw me there you'd likely have seen me inside the shop working on the bike (orange cruiser, lots of chrome). It was my first visit to Rosey's and quite the interesting experience. He's not exactly PC but he sure knows his stuff.

Thanks for the diagnostics and advice guys... I didn't believe it was the battery either. I'm going to keep a close eye on the charging system.

I also didn't tell you the other part of the story 'cause it was just too embarrassing... having to push the bike uphill across two lanes of oncoming 401 traffic to get to the break-down lane. Just a tad scary and I guess I'm lucky that it was a holiday. Guess I'm even luckier to still be here.
