so last night i left my key in my bike and on by accident at work. went out to drive home at 2300.. DEAD... after pushing it up the hill, a good run down and a hop on, poped the clutch in 2nd gear she fired right up! overall a crazy end to a crazy day !

Should put battery on a 2 amp charger over night to be sure it is topped up. Otherwise you may shorten battery life.

Another battery drawdown test with a charger in participation to verify results during hours of darkness while the world labors on to it's end goal.

And here I was just hoping to confuse you a little. Actually trying for a little humor after spending a couple hours tinkering with Lynda's bike and hoping I got it right.

It is easier to read and understand if you smile while reading. Try it, it works. We sometimes get the wrong message by not smiling while reading. I always try to approach the forum while in a good mood and not overly tired. It is so easy to get the wrong message because we can't hear the tone of voice or which words are of particular interest to the poster.
Of course if some one warns us that a rant is coming then we know the tone of voice to read into the post.
At present I am just sitting and rambling while some laundry dries. Retirement is a good thing. I need a nap very soon.

And then one day you can tell the boss you are leaving and not coming back. On my last day I was leaving and had to hand my security pass to the guard. Had a momentary skip in the old heart but that passed when I hit the road and realized I didn't ever have to go back. I do miss some of the people but not the job.
Be patient, retirement will come. Mine was supposed to start 3 years earlier but life got in the way. Funny now but not then. Things actually worked out very well in the end and I won't complain too much. I could still be working or pushing up daisies somewhere.
