To whoever posted the "coins in the spring" bit...

Thanks! "Ah owes ya a BEER!"
I helped a friend put a centerstand on his DL-650 today, and I used that
trick like I'd been doing it for ages.
It made life much easier than the struggling with a screwdriver and
clotheshanger bits that I used with my own bike.
He was very impressed and I looked like an actual evolved intelligence
instead of the knuckle-dragging tool-using hominid I really am.

It's all smoke & mirrors. I remember the first time a mate saw me using
the old dodge of zip-tieing a Kawasaki Z550's cams to the sprockets (you
have to move the cams to get at the valve shims as they're under the
buckets). The zip-tie trick makes the job quicker and you don't have to
re-time the engine. He was mightily impressed.
And of course, if you can carry it off with a casual: "Oh, thought
everyone knew that...", so much the better ;-)
