My first mistake was laying the stuff out in the living room (we had storms coming, so I had to bring her car into the garage, and therefore was without room). this is also due to the fact that I was supposed to do this maintenance over the winter and never got around to it.
Second mistake, not filing my invoices in the folder in the garage, as usual. So she began to pick those up and do math in her head. When she needed to add the third digit, I think the internal alarm was sounded (I hope to drown that out with my new horns
)
Don't worry about riding and putzing around. I have two motorcycles, and the reason I am working on this one, is because the weather is finnally nice (minus the crazy storms lately) and I can ride the cruiser, so I was able to pull the connie off of the road for some much needed maintenance.
good news is that I just figured out how to wire my aux lights with the illuminated switch that I bought (see below). She was not nearly as impressed with the little LED test light coming on as I was....
