Laid down the bike

We’ll I didn’t but Papi did. Dang!

Here’s what happened. I have an inclined driveway and he attempted to go up the drive without being straight with it and he stalled and slowly fell to the right side. In other words, he came out of my garage, and did not straight out before going up the drive, he tried to do so half way. He rode when he was young but I guess the years of not riding caught up with his common sense.

Any ways the damage was really minimal I think. The back of my right mirror was scratched (no biggie, I planned on getting some new ones). Also the “ball’ at the end of the brake level was scratched (no biggie either, it just looks like my bicycle brake levers when I was a child).

The one question I have is regarding the throttle cable. The thread on the metal connector that houses the throttle cable was torn. It’s not completely broken off but it appears torn about 50% around.
