And would you look at that... another couple years have gone by.
Bikes are still hibernating in the garage, daughters car became my car so that she could get a "new to her" model and move on (it failed the inspection and the amount of work to be done after I fixed the initial electrical problem was crazy... bought the parts to fix, but in the mean time I acquired another two projects to repair... my sisters Yukon Denali and I bought a 1967 Mercury Cougar

)
The wife's car took six weeks to get parts and be repaired, but is back on the road... seems to be a "rock magnate" as we need a new windshield for the third time in 30 months
My sister's Denali got repairs and moved on to a new owner. (she's in a bad place right now and a car isn't in her best interest right now)
My daughter's old car that became mine finally got moved on to someone that is planning on fixing it (gave 16yo kid the car and he bought the parts from me... basically)
The Cougar... is making slow progress
I'm going to get the repairs done on the Honda ST1300 and a set of new tires since they are at least 10yrs old. Change fluids and give it a thorough inspection to be ready to ride.
Life has a lot of obstacles to maneuver around so I am going to have to prioritize the bike over the winter and get it back on the road for April 2024... really miss the freedom of riding. (not to mention the fuel efficiency

) I think I have cleared the hurdles that I needed to so that I can get back to MY hobbies and not be spending time working on other people's headaches (read family for other people

)
Anyway, I'm glad to be back and I'll make a point of logging in every few days and I'll post pics when I start working on the ST1300... once I figure out the problem (fuel pump or relay?

)
Thank you.
