Default Motorcycle Psychology

Hello, I am a recent graduate of the Cleveland School of Motorcycle Psychology. I have been interested in helping motorcycles for along time. Maybe your having problems with your motorcycle and can't figure out what is wrong, you've taken it to the dealer, the local shop and discussed the problem with friends. It just has not helped! You don't know where to turn to next. Perhaps your motorcycle has psychological problems and you don't know it? Maybe your motorcycle had a bad build experience, or is suffering from R.R.S. (Road Rash Syndrome) Your motorcycle could have a case of S.B.D.(Small Bike Disorder). In many cases all that a motorcycle needs is some one to talk to. If you have problems that keep recurring, having doubts about your mechanics ability to fix your scoot or just want to find out what makes your motorcycle tick. Post your concerns here and I'll try to be as honest as possible, for the sake of your motorcycle and peace of mind get the help you both deserve.

Maybe you are the one with cabin fever and you should just go out to the garage, start the motor and inhale some exhaust fumes for a moment (with the door open please) and ask your bike where it would like to go when it warms up a little!

It's good to know your sitting on the five gal. bucket and not the seat of your drunken motorcycle!

Mainly, small pets and most democrats are scared to death of anything that sounds like thunder and smells like burning rubber, but that should be taken up in the PROD. forum.

My motorcycle has a drinking problem. It is constantlygulping down large quantities of gas and of course it always has to have the best octane.. How do I wean it off this expensive vise.

I recon this would be considered "Cycle Therapy".
