First time it years the doors are lockable on my big shed where the Hornet lives. Spent all morning repairing and re hanging the doors that Gerotti broke. To be honest I enjoy a bit of wood work or wood butchering in this case. The best bit is that it never cost a penny. Coat of red stain on the next dry day and all will be good. The roof on the bike shed is next.

You weren’t born with it and you still don’t have it.

I hear you Saul , I have no idea what's up with that , they were both raised in the same manner, one is completely self reliant and does all of his maintenance work on his bikes and the other relies on the other one , don’t know if it's complete lack of confidence or its my fault, has basically no interest in turning wrenches...30 years-old old now and Im still changing the oil in his corolla....I honestly beleive it's something your born with...some have it...and some don't....

You only got 3" last night? You should speak to @Vamana Gupta, he always gets at least 12".

They ain't straight

Tell you what , its not because I didn't show him ...it's extremely hard to teach someone who don't show intress.. It's been a year now since I haven't done any serious wrenching, do I miss it , you might ask...a little maybe , but I sure don't miss the stress of operating a repairshop...

Well my old man helps me, more like passes me tools, I hate other people working on my stuff

I gave my Rickman Z900 to the lad a year or 3 ago..still done anything with it..wish i had kept it now. I would have had it back on the road...Mind, they were shit in a bend and the brakes were crap.. in a straight line in those days...Waaaaaaaaaaaa!... Bikes are much better today, we just we had the best then.
