What is shocking is how dang easy it is to dent a tank. My house is pretty average, but my garage is large. It will hold close to six, full sized cars. I was working on the drywall, on the ceiling. I emptied the garage, but it was snowing, so I did not want my sv650 to get snowed on.
Could it hold 100 motorcycles, probably. But thats how much area the sv took up. No big deal.
So, I'm sticking the tape, over the joint, and the drywall knife slips from my hand.
Now, lets do the match, here. In over 99% of the garage floor space, knife falls and hits concrete floor. That did not happen.
Even the motorcycle, itself. It could have hit the seat, or plastic windshield. Nope. When it fell, its weighted, metal end drilled the painted part of the tank. Nice dent.
I had to stop. Fate was against me The tool was cleaned, and put away. The ladder was next.
I set it back in its place. I'll tie tie it down, later. (mistake 2)
Im bringing the car in. The doorr was in motion, up, but enough space to sneak a car in. Time was important as snow was accumulating on the car.
As the car stops, door hits top of its stop. The vibration hits the ladder. It falls, and drills the new car on its rear fender. The luck, and odds to this happening was like your mistress giving birth to Little Baby Jesus, but it happened.
So, my recommendation of the painless dent removal guy is from experience. He did an amazing job on both dents. Surprising I did not have three for him.
