al Qaeda hits entropy garage twice this weekend!!!
first,
Those sneaky bastids turned the battery around in the battbox, so when I made up my new lo impedance cables, i was hooking the bike up pos to neg. It took 18 hours, a complete review of the electrical system sections of workshop manual & wiring diagram, testing everything and a new rectifier before I suspected trechery. I turned the batt around and it fired immediately. BTW, now when the bike is real hot, no starting problems
second,
in order to get at the starter cable I pulled the coolant reservoir and nearby hoses. After fitting the cables, I buttoned up everything, then went in the house for coffee. In that 15 min interval, the fukken al Qaeda, snuck (sneaked?) attacked again, loosening up one of the hose clamps. So, when the bike got hot enough to pressurize the system, the hose blew off drenching my chiken legs in coolant. FUKKEN al-Qaeda!!!!

MM,
I'd get Amber a nice soft blanky and a space all her own in my garage if she'd keep Bin Laden's minions away from my bike!
YCIS, were you wearing shorts and flip-flops???

I had a crimped o-ring on the water pipe to my cylinder block, but it didn't make itself known until I got up to the line to run, and started gushing hot water all over the place. The starter just walked over and pointed down. I pushed back to the pits, pulled my pipe, drained my coolant, reseated the water pipe, reassembled, and by the grace of Elmer it didn't leak.
Frickin' Al Quaeda.

YCIS: SQUID????!!!!
You caught me! I sit on my bike in the garage dressed in a squidly fashion and make motor sounds, imagining wheelies past the high school LOL!
My squidly wrenching attire got me a trip to the emergency room and jar full o' percodan! woo-hoo!!!
