Amusing read

Thats a very amusing read but sadly its too true. I have been tinkering & restoring bikes, particularly zeds since 1989 when i got hold of my first z1b. I feel like i have dealt with all the chromers, polishers, painters, engineers, welders, fabricators, machinists, retailers & general dogs ...
