I always thought it wood be nice to have a 2nd bike. Something to run around single seat and **** off the neighbors. Older softtail or chopper. Find a good deal.

My extinct employer did that, laid off thousands of employees to farm out all the work they could. Didn't do their homework because on a lot of parts, the 3rd party repair shop had to have FAA approval, engineer drawings and manuals for that particular airline, and literally truckloads of parts came back and management had no choice but to have who was left do the work. For some stuff, nobody that knew how was left, and if that wasn't fun...
I have a customer that for years, one guy knew the code to the vault that held all the recipes. (A big chemical plant that has lots of private recipes for batches of chemicals.) Well, he and them were not on good speaking terms and they fired him. Okay. Three months later they need to get into that vault. Nobody has the code! Its an old looking thing, say 6 feet tall by 4 feet wide by 4 feet deep. So they called the guy, and of course he told them to F O! They begged and pleated but to no avail. They had a guy come in and break into the vault. So the next time I went in and say it, there was a huge hole in the door and it was open.
The management at this plant are idiots. They will spend tons of money to save a quarter. Most of the people that knew what was going on are gone and all the undesirables remained. Or the guys that have pensions and just waiting to retire and cant afford to leave.

Yeah, lotta fun bikes out there, but aren't practical for full time use, like dirtbikes, sidecar rigs, scooters... that wood be a tough decision, if I had to cut it down to one bike. The sportsters would go, the Yamaha enduro, the Urals for sure, and my real oddball, the Honda Helix. Silly stuff to get attached to, I should have sold half of them before now.

The world has reached an entirely new level of stupid. The wife was making me a new doo rag last night and her sewing machine broke. No problem, I'll see what walmart has available then run and get her a new one. They have none in stock. OK, fine. I'll download the manual, order whatever part broke and just fix hers. Don't know what part broke yet, but went to a sewing machine parts site to get an idea of availability.
"Due to the Covid-19 outbreak and increased demand, there is a 14-21 day delay in shipping."
Also seems the shortage of machines at Walmart is Covid related as well. People are buying them up to make farking masks. Are you shi***ng me?
