I am a DIYer, HardCore Edition.
My best friend Doug, who happens to be my Dentist, wasn't amused when he found I had repaired a lost filling with Ready Patch.
But, I hate working on our Spyders.
Removing the mirrors, while not being nearly as frightening as it once was, still turns my stomach into a granny knot.
Let's face it.
Even though I really love & adore the Spyder RT, it seems to me that every procedure is an exercise in frustration.
Areas such as by the seat hinge and by the handlebars are Black Holes. These Black Holes have both strong magnetic fields and gravitational fields that suck in hardware, tools and small pets never to be seen again.
OK, I've never personally lost a small pet.
Changing the oil still makes my heart stop for the eternity the oil pressure light stays lit upon initial startup.
When the light does finally does go out the universe all makes sense, serenity & joy abound.
That's the point of this.
It's the feeling of accomplishment for me coupled with the thrill of (I imagine) winning the next to last turn of Russian Roulette.
I hate working on our Spyders.
But, I love having worked on our Spyders.
