That cabinet circled in red? Nothing but Harley nuts, bolts, washers, o-rings, etc etc....has more storage than what it looks like in that pic.

Hell, I have one little drawer itself dedicated to battery nuts and bolts.

There's also a couple of coffee cans, but the other is easier to get too.......








That's a beautiful Shovel!!!

When we were younger, stores weren't open on Sundays, so you needed the bucket, over the years, my workshop looks like a old hardware store. Jars lined up in order of sizes. My son said to my wife, when Dad goes, what the hell am I going to do with all this !

Battery bolts have tightened and seem secure. The battery’s trickle charger has been telling me fully charged and it seems to have held its charge throughout the winter.
I did triple check I was neutral!
WIth the keyless ignition, holding the trip trigger puts the bike in accessory mode. The starter circuit is disabled in accessory mode. To exit accessory mode, and return to ignition mode, hold the trip trigger again.

It is handy having a "junk" drawer like those. I have a couple of plastic bins with various nuts, bolts, washers, connectors, etc in. Surprising how often those come in handy. Plus it helps keep clutter out of tool box and minimizes the search through mason jars looking for that right nut!

Dan that box on top of my nuts and bolts cabinet.

There's only a handful of guys on this forum that would know what that is, and you're one of them....
