And partial removal of the left side exhaust to get at the lower bolts holding the stator cover in place.

Always something! Anticipation is half the fun I'm told.

Good thought,,,, We just attended our Grand sons wedding, all planned and organized by his Mom, that's what happened a lot years ago. Today though, on the whole we hire someone to do all that. We hire planners, caterers, musicians, bar tenders, DJs or a band,,,, yep, that's today society, lack of leadership and planners and definitely a lack of workers. My side of the family cleaned the place up afterwards, including the dishes, not even a offer for help from the other side, but they did keep the barkeeps busy. Good point!

We seem to be getting plenty of those types, so many that we now have names for them,,,,, Karens and Kens.

Sounds really expensive. Last year our prices were around $1.25L, this year $2>$2.25L. Big jump! And it doesn't cost anymore to get it out of the ground.

No milk today, what does that message mean? the end of your hopes? the end of all your dreams?

Yep!

Put the pizza through the blender, it'll still eat. Glad your feeling somewhat better.

Did you try to milk the 'cow'? Nice landscape, enjoy!

By failed, do you mean it wouldn't dis-engage or was it slipping?

keep in mind that a MC tire has a whole lot less rubber on the road compared to a CT, so a small amount of things being out with a CT could have a great amount of input.

Just wondering if the squirmeness may have something to do with rear tire alignment. If it isn't dead-on I would think the results may be as are described. Loosen off the 4 acorn nuts on the pumpkin from the swing arm, loosen the axle bolt, shake it around some to make it all wiggle to reseat. Now snug up the axle, then tighten the acorns, then torque the axle. In that order.

Glad you made it through, would hate to have to miss you!

They may be called the weaker sex, but it don't mean nothin' when it comes to smarts.

She had just filled the tank??? You just spent over $1k, but, but! Girls!!

Not worried about the Alps, they will still be there a year from now,,,,, now the scooter holds more importance.

Somebody got to use that fuel.

And now you go for holidays and leave us all in suspense?? You got nerve!!

I'm leaning very heavy on the shifter itself. The pivot bolt has a tendency to loosen and fall off. Take a look there first and then follow Puc's instructions.

Years ago, back in 51 or 52, we had just immigrated from Holland. We lived in a small house with 8 of us, house that maybe today 2 people would find too small and Mom was very lonely for her family. It was Christmas eve. Somewhere during the night she woke up to a sound in the bedroom next to hers, she woke up my dad as well to listen to their youngest singing Ere zij God (Glory to God). She says he sang it all the way through and it totally blessed her and dad. She says it was the best Christmas she ever had. No presents but lots of Presence. I don't remember any of it, other than what she told me. Yes! Sons can bless their mothers in many ways, I'm glad you could bless her in such a manner.

Thanks for the story. It's good to hear such stories.

Now there is a double oxymoron, mental and health? and then listening for a Dutchman? There's truth in the figuring out statement though.

Keep it playing, it can't be all bad,,,, and,,,, you may get to like it some! Honestly, can't be of help on that one, unless you want it butchered.
