A "faith-based" conclusion. -_-

 

Like your position on AGW, your great certainty based on nothing more than slim, irrelevant, statistically insignificant, and zip is a hallmark of religion.  :homer:

Just thought I'd add a footnote to this story which began back in June.

 

Finally got the papers and registered the beastie. Some Techron in the fuel helped smooth things out a little and with another set of new plugs I'm off and running. Once I was confident it would run without a bunch of grief I gave her a nice bath. Looks like brand new again.

 

Turns out the bike is a 2001 and has only been ridden 183 miles in the past 2-1/2 years for total of just over 8,000. I've been out the past two evenings and put on another 125. It is running better each time out.

 

So, the old KISS theory (Keep It Simple Stupid) seems to have proven true again as far as the "problems" the bike was having. Nothing that a few hours riding won't cure. Eventually I'll give it a full tuneup but for now I'm just gonna ride.

 

Lets see if Ratch and dlaing can argue about that!

 

Thanks to all for the encouragement, Dennis in Maine.
