…than sitting in your garage at night studying over a new motorcycle?
(I mean other than riding it of course.)

I was able to download a copy of the shop manual and printed it out at work. I’ve got one of those little shop stools on rollers to scoot around and just keep flipping it page by page, night after night, understanding this gizmo and that gadget…taking it apart, putting it back together. Can’t wait to get home. Oh, and I get to do my first maintenance on Sunday after I get home from riding all day…sweet!

Ha.

I was just reading the book "Leanings". He talks about buying a new(to him) bike. Parking it in the garage and getting a lawn chair and a beer. Just sitting and looking at the bike.

Guilty.

No garage at the current house, so the bike sits outside the window over the sink, under the carport. I catch myself just standing there, staring at it sometimes.

Have to check out "Leanings."

This time of year staring from inside an air conditioned house is probably a good idea. Although you could bring the motorcycle inside.  Grin
