you cant even see the real problem here.

Due to the pressures of real life you have to leave your bike sometimes during the day.

This is the thing I am trying to fix with my life....

And the reason you posted was...!

I play doctor, so I feel I'm qualified to answer this:

Your perfectly normal!

That will be $50.00 please...I don't take insurance!

It's all good. We all suffer from the same illness. And it doesn't go away with time. Just enjoy it.

My buddies always give me alot of crap about how much attention I pay to my bike and how clean I always keep her. I keep my bike on the covered patio in the back of my house(I need a garage)so I can look at her out of the back door everytime go to the kitchen. Yes my wife gets a bit jealous too but she tries to understand. I just thought all this was normal.

Sure do. I move the scoot out to the back shop also for winter and the thing is just too d*mn big to heat, trust me I've thought about it. I heat it with a torpedo heater when I need to work out there but I have to turn a big fan on the bike to dry off the condensation. I don't like doing it too much as I'm sure it's condensing on the inside too.

Guess I'll just spend my winter trolling around here and learning as much as I can

I don't see the need to visit the bike every day. I visit the Harley dealer or buy something on line instead. It got up to 10 degrees today and I don't like turning the heat on in the garage unless I have the whole day to work. Can't wait for the weekend, too many parts on the shelf and not on the bike!
