    yeah it's fine on the center stand. I've always done it on the side stand and just had someone hold it level, but we have 4 techs at the dealership

      I grab the front brake, kneel next to the bike and tip it to me.

      One of these days it's gonna flatten me..

                      yes miracles do happen the bike is actually running! after 2 years following the advice of a total douchebag mechanic, the bike is making noise. tommorow the carb sync gets done and plastics get put on, but something will go wrong (it always does!) its been so long i think i forgot how to ride the thing

                              no its not arsenic some local guy did a compression test on the bike and told me it needed new piston rings (only problem was the starter relay was bad and starter motor wouldn't rotate engine!) but that neutral indicator switch is working perfectally

                                compression tests suck to begin with. How the hell would he have any idea it was piston rings? I need to shut up now, I could go off on hack job "mechanics"
