Well, we are back. We thought we’d be gone for a week, instead, a little over a day. Pretty good I’d say. I know everyone was SO concerned

On the plus side I FINALLY got my bike running Monday evening. Like a dumbass I didn’t start my bike all winter so the battery died past the point of recharging. I bought a new one from the dealer (approx. $90), took it home and found out I had to fill it with the electrolyte acid and then charge it. In the process of doing that it got dropped and cracked the case by one of the posts. Much to my dismay, there is no substance in existance that will repair this. That or they just don’t want to make it for fear of losing extra money that clumsy people like me bring in. SO… after finding a battery shop near my house, and another $80 later I had a new battery. The guys at this place offered to fill it for me though. I took them up on the offer. Got the battery home and charged it for a couple of hours, then went riding. Man, what an expensive lesson to learn.
