Every time I move my head my neck makes that great painful grating noise. I shouldn't have settled that MVA case so quickly. I'm told I will be in some level of pain for the rest of my life. Fantastic.

:censored::censored::censored::censored:... I think I'm gonna drink. I just realized that if things had turned out right I would be getting married on Saturday.

Is this a good thing? Cause dodging marriage sounds like a reason to celebrate to me... :glare:

Aww, that sucks. But it all worked out for the best, hmm? If it's not meant to be, it's not meant to be. Dating your partner, tells you what kind of person she is!

Very true...


And to take my mind off everything for this weekend, I just went out and bought an old bike. Time to start buying parts to get it running reliably.

I have just spent the past two days under my 92 pickup, getting covered in oil and othe crud, smashing my fingers, getting rust in my eye, almost dropping a transmission on myself, prying rusty parts off, figuring out how torsion bars work, etc. (ie. replacing mu clutch).

Ugh, no chrome please :p Never been a fan. This is actually my first bike that's not a sportbike. It's an old 73 Honda CB500K2

Oh boy! Just having an absolute blast! And now I find out that somehow I have like an inch and a half of play in the clutch pressure plate! Here's hoping it is just my flywheel and not my crankshaft! Oh and get this, the throwout bearing is shot and it is so bad it dosent even spin properly. It goes in some kind of funny oval pattern. (Dont ask me how it was even still working. My mechaninc buddy said he has never seen one that bad.)

Tomarrow after class: (1) Ice back of head from where it violently contacted transmission. (2) Pull the rest of the clutch off and pray I don't have a dual mass flywheel.
