Rabbito, sometimes I even question your ability to remember to breathe.

Well since my deployment to Iraq in 08 I fu(ked my back up. So tingling and shocks are normal. So I thought I tweaked it the wrong way.

Reminds me of a neighbour of mine, some years ago. I had no idea he was a rider until one day he was trying to push-start a very smart looking bike past my home. Had to go and look! It was a Norton featherbed frame with a Vincent Lightning V-twin engine - everything in pristine condition. He had nickel plated the frame, totally rebuilt the engine to racing spec, but it wouldn't fire up. His plug leads were putting on quite a display.....
