Money Pit.

[Water Warrior 2]

Brought the bike home today. I will attribute the clumsy tall weird handling to my rusty riding skills. Bloody scary to be sure. Topped up the tank with fresh gas so it would be even worse on the road and in the parking area.
Now comes the TLC part of ownership.
Contact cleaner for all the switch gear. New light bulbs everywhere so others can see me a bit better. The old bulbs are dim with age and likely ready to expire soon anyway. Lube all cables, levers, locks, hinges on bags. Gotta get my battery tender back from a friend so I can hook up the pigtail to the battery. Adjust rear brake pedal for my size 12 boots. It is too high and hard to find. Lube the side stand and centerstand. The drive shaft has a couple grease points too. Hopefully the swing arm does too.
Yup, all sorts of stuff to entertain me for a while. I am not in a rush to ride till it gets warmer and sunnier.
Something I never considered is the torque effect of the engine. The bike tries to lean right a little when revved at a stop. This certainly is a different animal compared to what I have ridden before. Should make for interesting times.
