I did get an A in Motorcycle Mechanics.


Neat. I learned how to set up a Ducati Desmo head in the late
seventies...and how the Brit engines had a left hand thread on the oil
pump gear. The Super Sport 900 Ducati was probably the funnest bike
I've ever owned. I still have a Triumph. It's a 1200 Daytona mind you,
so it doesn't leak. Lots of Nortons over the years...no Commandos though.

I'd like a new Triumph Thruxton in the spring. The Daytona is getting
to be a pain handling in the parking lot. The 560 lb weight and Old
Age, you know. We'll see what the budget looks like next year.
