Honda finally called me back (took em long enough). They apologized for the deer guts not being cleaned up and told me when the weather gets nice bring it on down and they would detail it for me. SO thats a good thing :D. He did apologize for the bike not starting up but at least I got it running.
good to hear, but damn how icy are those temps over there that the bike wouldn't even start? :P
it was only 20F. This bike had started without issues before down to 14 degrees outside not in a garage.

Just picked up our big german shepherd from surgery to fix his ACL. $1,285, yikes! :shock: and coming right after Christmas, too. I think we're gonna be eating franks and beans for a while. Next Monday I get epidural steriod injections for the messed up discs in my cervical spine. Hopefully will get less pain and more function back in my right arm as a result. Fortunately I have medical insurance - the dog doesn't.

Yup! Back to CO now!
Sunday morning we leave Phoenix.
Spend the night in Vegas :twisted:
Monday drive through Utah and spend the night in Grand Junction.
Tuesday through Grand Junction, Glenwood Springs, Montrose, Delta, then spending the night in Gunnison.
And either Wednesday or Thursday going through Salida and Buena Vista and back to the Springs.
Then sometime after that headed up to Fort Collins and places like that to look for a job!
