I hear ya, lot of good times spent in the workshop, usually @ night, with the ol'fella swearing about Jap bikes, [he rode Triumphs in his day!],

he always reckon that the oriental gentlemen designed their bikes around the size of their hands [or something along those lines!]

Unfortunately, Uncle Mac died about 8yrs ago, that man was a great teacher, had a real 'Zen' attitude to his teaching style, calm - collected & always encouraging, miss him heaps

Cheers
Baza
