Myself, included.....Frustrating, too.

As repeatedly shown, 15 years (or so?)...Your motorcycle shows a cleanliness, which to myself, is beyond belief:)
Even before you "went away".
Very Cool

Glad to see you here, Jeff.

I have installed and removed many different car and motorcycle batteries over many years......Instant melt!...
