We call it ''an adjustment''.OzOAP wrote:breakdown is where bike cannot be fixed at roadside, everything else is an unscheduled stop.
whats classed as a break down
Long Story...cut short.
On Long trips for example Austria this year, we take Jerry from Skegness (aka Jezza) a laminated self portrait photo of a fat, single, middle aged man, naked on his mums bed with his limp dick in hand dreaming of making a porn film (probably with his mum) , which we found in an abandoned porn mag (honest).
Anyway, whoever breaks down has to wear 'Jezza' till the next unfortunate soul breaks down.
This year on the way to Austria breakdown king was Teapot Paul, who wore Jezza most of the week, with 2 broken stators and a sheared woodruff Key, only interval he had was another broken stator belonging to Tony-Tool-Box, I had my carb fall off rubber at a petrol station, however, (so I believe) I rightly argued that it was not an unscheduled stop and so not a breakdown, and relieved not to wear the badge of shame. To everyones surprise,amazement, and some very well off bookies, Champ our TS1 breakdown King made the whole journey there and back trouble free!
So..... in short we call any unscheduled stop.... 'A Breakdown'.

I had one coming back from the Lincoln rally,, throttle stuck wide open on the A46 while accelerating in 3rd and I didn't realise till I went for 4th gear and the engine revved its tits off. Nice reminder of why its never a good idea to ride with out a working ignition key!
If I hadn't been able to turn the motor off It would have ended in 1 of 2 ways,, melted engine or a crash.
frayed cable, good job I had a spare to put in
