Bike prep's and disappointment

Finally the bike out of the garage
After a long cold and wet winter, this weekend finally nice weather and so it was time to clean out the garage and see whether the bike would still go. After two hours, the garage was clean and ready for summer (all sleds and skies moved out the way) and I moved out my bike to rev the engine again. Finally I would hear the roar and feel the power again of the 1100cc Honda Shadow I own with a lot of shiny chrome.

Disappointing sounds
Then, what happened ? No power, no roar, no battery, nothing, ... all dead. F... Moved up the car with the battery charger cables and had good hopes for a start-up with some help but again, even with the battery of the car helping out, the engine would not come alive, F... again. Having spent another hour trying to get it going, even with running in 2nd gear and jump-starting it, it didn't work and I gave up.

Hope for tomorrow
Neighbour had a new battery charger and that one is now plugged into the power to help the battery come alive. I hope tomorrow it will work because otherwise I will have to ask the service people from the garage. Let's pray ... and I'll let you know the outcome ...

Regards,

Marco
