Glad you're enjoying it! Just don't go TIMYOYO again!

Haha you should see the sticker I put over the button... I have been meaning to snap a pic.

TheRuss · 06-11-2013, 10:02 AM

What does it say? "DO NOT TOUCH!"

Its just big red letters saying, "NO!"

Alternatively you could just put a skull and crossbones sticker on there...

Late reply but I did something similar in my 1. It was pouring rain and I turned my traction off for fun and lost control and slid into a curb. Had to replace the cracked axle and a few other things...lesson learned haven't touched that button since.

Sorry to hear about that. Sounds like yours was quite a bit worse as mine was all purely cosmetic. No curb or ditch, just a not-so-sturdy stationary object serving as a border to a certain golf course....

i.e. "chainlink fence"

I've gotten so much crap (jokingly) from my family/friends. Its actually pretty funny looking back.

TheRuss · 06-13-2013, 12:05 PM

Glad you can look back and laugh about it. You certainly won't be doing it again any time soon!

Thanks so much for all these cautionary tales, folks -- I've been rolling my noo beest pretty intensely, and I can see where if I hadn't heard these stories, I'd be flirting with that little button myself...
