I bet it fell off while he was riding through a glacier on his way to work.
Or, he brought it into the dealer and they couldn't see it due to the brake dust forming a cacoon around it.
Either way I'm glad he's gettin it taken care of. The more, the merrier at the Gap!
Got the trailer hitch installed today, got the trailer registered today, throwin the new bearings on it tonight, ordered my new Corbin(
