Might have been the first time since I bought the Geezer. I noticed the front had gone a little soft and it was going to be a while until I was going to be at a dealership. Noticed on the backwheel the spokes are shorter and the stem is harder to get to. Had to thread the filler tube through the spoke lattice to get a good "docking" connection.
I'll be expecting my mileage and top speed to skyrocket...
WOW... you will be getting a Gold Star for that work.

Been there, done that, probably hosed up my carb from overfilling. But Never say Never Again. I also installed a new turn signal/running light reflector for the one that fell/cracked off the front of the Strat. That one involved a Phillips head screw!

But did you use a JIS Phillips or an American standard Phillips ??

Well, you do strap em on, plug 'em in and you got to tune them up. Steering is best accomplished with two hands. There are basic models and there are ones that come with all the farkles and whistles. Some guys play theirs regularly, many sit around just collecting dust and fallling out of tune. You can go solo or play in a group. Some guys focus on their "riding" skills, some mostly on how loud theirs is compared to yours. You can go slow or fast, long or short.
Some girls may find you more attractive if you know how to operate them.
It's pretty much the same deal as the bikes, except you don't usually don't have to wear a helmet (roadhouses excepted) and, in most cases, they don't run on gas.

Well, that skill is handy even when they don't find you, your bike or your guitar attractive...
