Well it is that time of year. It was a brisk day here in lower New York. I pulled my AWESOME bike out of the garage I am allowed to store it in today. I set it up after the winter as properly as I could and putted my way to my friends auto shop and spent the majority of the day finishing up the spring thaw on it. You know the drill, tightening things and fixing the broken negative battery lead that snapped off when I put it away for Winter.
An odd thing happened when I fixed that lead though. When I went to hook up the negative terminal the started would just spin and spin even with the ingnition key turned off. My buddy (atuo Mechanic) went through as much as we could. Ultimately we disconnected the battery and removed it and once it was put back in all was fine. A very strange thing in deed.
Spring if here, get your bikes out and watch out for the cages, and left over salt paches and all the nifty potholes that the plows and frost heaves created. Unless you live in the warmer climes, in that case I hate you.
