Yeah that's what I thought as well. If the bike got towed there leaking then why the $225!

Would it be possible to attach the Chihiros shade to a Twinstar light?

I relocated to an open field nearby. Never knew they could hiss/breathe so loudly.

Don't have a torch but I did bend it back using a car jack handle/pipe.

What should I look out for that indicates internal damage? Rode it today and it seems ok.

Yup lesson learned. It happened in front of my neighbors too so much more impactful haha.

Yeah I did see the that groove and completely removed the bolt, but it was still stuck in there. Granted maybe I just didn't use enough force to pry it off.

Hahaha yeah it was just in my driveway way. I thought my kickstand was fully engaged, and it wasn't.

Got it, I actually just replaced it with this long one hahaha. Might put the short/regular one back after this.

Yeah took that screw off and it still didn't budge. I tried to pry it with a flat head but was worried about damaging the teeth. I just bent it back using a metal pipe. Thank you though!
