I'm sure you're not serious now, but...

Yes, yes and very probably yes.

I've got one for the Z1000, but I've never opened it. Never had to see? :-)

Luckily, you've got the local shop to do all the scheduled
maintenance?

Luckily, you can get all the information you need out of your manual
through osmosis?

Luckily, you use the on-line version of your manual?

Luckily, you have a teen-age son who can read the manual to you?

Luckily, the Z1000 never needs scheduled maintenance?

Luckily, your bike purchase included free scheduled maintenance &
repairs for the first 36,000 miles?

Just guessing....

What, are you thinking of giving in to the Dark Side, now? ;-)

Well, when I go to the gym, the sidewalk not blocking the door turns into
kind of "motorcycle row".

The other day, there was a guy there parked beside me who had a really
great-looking HD (I think it is the police model or similar to it, but it
had a seat for two).

I kind of liked all of these factors:

a)The chrome, which seemed more than thick enough to make it through the
warranty period without corrosion.

b)The fact that it was large and would allow me to date chicks that are of
the size to which I've become accustomed.

c)The fact that it looked really cool.

I just thought I'd check on the parts situation, because a man like me has
to replace the rear axle at least once a year!

Seriously, I liked it.

But my Honda is great in one respect ... since it is only worth maybe
$1,500, it is completely disposable other than me keeping it mechanically
safe. If it weren't for liability, I'd just convert the ignition switch to
a simple ON-OFF switch that doesn't require a key.
