For clarification purposes, and considering all the facts....did CB technically wrench on his bike?

He did hit the start button and then had to clean up the mess.

He also didn't take his bike to the mechanic when something unexpected happened so sure I'll give it to him.

Ride away proud cp, with a little help from your friends. But you are the one that had to man up and push the button. Glad you got her running. Just top off the oil but not to full, and hit the road.
