One of the reasons I'm glad I'm single.

That's right, a valve adjustment in the kitchen.  That is all.

That is all.

You know you can do a valve adjustment with the engine still in the bike right?

With the additional buying power from getting married, I have a four car garage.

You don't have to be a single man to enjoy this.

Mother's bike getting ready for a valve check (and in its winter storage spot):



If we could fit my S2R in there as well, we would.

Nice.  The tool box lives next to the fridge.

Yeah I know, but I live on the second floor and the elevator is too small to fit my bike in.  Plus pulling the engine gives me the opportunity to give it a good cleaning and to clean up the wiring harness.

Great pics

sigh

i remember those days

my wife's tastes in interior design do not permit the "engine in the living room" anymore.

i cannot begin to describe the look on her face years ago when an engine showed up on a skid courtesy of UPS -- delivered to our upper east side 7th floor apartment.  I might as well have aborted a calf, pureed it and smeared it on the walls.

Your wife and mine would get along great. Hell, she doesn't even want my scooters in the garage! If I move her car out to make room in the garage to work on bikes some sort of secret internal alarm goes off and she's at the garage door in a nano second asking me why her car is now in the driveway and just how long will it be there. Like it's going to freaking melt or something?? Me saying that it just wants to hang outside in the sunshine and chill with my car in the driveway goes nowhere... My car has never been in the garage and it's doing just fine. Garages (and living rooms and kitchens) are for bikes not cars.

Guess I'm in the minority then.   

Anything with a motor is welcome anywhere in my house.
