Maggie : I can relate to Larry being bored . But the seat cover is best done when the cover has been in the sun an hour or so to get warm & stretchy. So if Larry gets a burst of energy &" helps " , let him have fun. Probably better than me planning to go fishing & just sitting in a chair under my shade tree watching the robins eat all the worms in my yard. Baby Huey

Subject: [Honda-C70] Larry 'stole' my weekend project..
He said it was my fault, I left the box at his house..so he's taken the gas tank off the blue bike, cleaned it, took off, cleaned and re-assembled the carb,got the new gasket on the fuel tank, put on new fuel lines, I didn't ask if he did the planned oil change too..maybe he forgot and I might get to do something mechanical/maintenance wise on My own bike...
the seat cover I ordered for his bike came so now he can play with that--unless he already did it while I was at work.
When it gets hot or humid he's back in the house with the air on..but that seat could easily go in the house if he got it off...
This is a very bored retired man, who might get to 'help' on a '30's Shovelhead that a pal at work has, was willed to him by a friend, he's thinking about getting it running again, does not have internet so I said to write down the info and I will play on line..
Work pal needs more in his life than the woman who just dumped him--when he quit forking over $$$. 1of the guys is trying to get him hooked up with the wife's cousin, I'm encouraging him to do some things fun that he's not made the time for..his kids are 21 now, coming to visit for a family wedding, he helps care for his aging mother. . . me thinks he needs encouraged to work on his inherited bike..
And the bike in the Philippines, it's sort of a family joke--ex asks me to do stuff, or gets Jake to ask me, or calls me to get me to ask Jake (in the Marines) so I thought it was my turn...and we know Maggie thinks Honda Passports are like Lay's potato chips. . . .Maggie in IL (who wanted to clean and rebuild her own carb)
