I used to dream of re-building an old Motorcycle.. But not gonna happen.
No engine work for me. I've had such horrible results working on small engines,
there is no way I would do basic timing-belt change or valve clearance adjustments, brake jobs etc..

When I did work that kind of on my cars, it was almost under duress..

Nowadays, I drive very little, so I should never had to do too much to my cars.
Just take care of the basic maintenance stuff.

I'll be more than happy to work on my bicycle.. But I'll stay far away from anything major on a car..
