The problem is once the bike hits the shop then you have to start writing checks. Every day in the garage is saving you money.

May save you money, may not, I am buying lots of stuff waiting to work on the bike. At least when I am working on it, I am not on the computer or at the Harley Dealer. Working on it actually saves me money.

GET IT INTO THE SHOP AND START WORKING, STOP THINKING ABOUT IT!

Get your snow shovel out, you only need it;s width to clear a path to the shop, problem solved. Hopefully it doesn't snow before you have finished though,

I had a similar dilemma last weekend except my shop is 3.5 miles away. I made it there and back without any problems but I won't do that again. I am very lucky I didn't dump it. Next time I'll wait until the roads are clear.

Yup on both questions but I think you'll find we're all pretty much cooked at this point.
