Parting is such sweet sorrow



part of the deal when i bought my '99 ST was heated storage at the dealers
this year. snow has fallen here and the weather is cold but i kept delaying
because i just like to look at the beautiful thing in the garage. today,
however, it was reasonably warm, streets were dry, and the time had come. i
washed him all over, then followed with a thick coat of wax, oiled the
chain, sprayed WD40 on exposed chrome and fasteners, put fuel stabilizer in
the tank, aired up the tires and with that, ny son and i made the lonely
trip to the dealer where i had to say goodbye to the wonderful machine until
sometime next spring. i took the battery out as i will keep it freshly
charged at home. it is a sad evening. at least i have the panniers to remind
me of my sleeping beaty.
