You have been in shed to long when?
« on: April 09, 2015, 03:51:19 pm »
You know the deal with VMX bikes and getting ready for an event.

You start lighting your smokes with the welder cause you lost the matches.
The dog has left and gone to bed.
The off-peak hot water clicks on.
You hear the garbage truck coming down the street.
Your eyes sting and you look for the cleanest knuckle to rub them with. 
You just spend 20 min looking for that bolt and you find it half screwed in were it has to go.

Etc  ;D
Current bikes. KTM MC 250 77 Husky CR 360 77, Husky 82 420 Auto Bitsa XR 200 project. Dont need a pickle just need to ride my motorcickle

When your fitting the exhaust and you notice one of the springs falls off.
You continue fitting the exhaust then look on the ground for the spring.
2 hours later and a major cleanup of the shed you finally take the exhaust back off to find it fell into the exhaust :-[

The dinner that the mrs has cooked for you is in the microwave but you have to get just one more part of the build done before you go inside.....Eating dinner at 2 in the morning is never good.
Arrogance.....A way of life for the those that having nothing further to learn.

You've been in the shed too long when you can't decide if to mount the Flux capacitor in front or behind the gull wing doors on the RM80
