The old girl is in the shop

I just had to put the old girl in the shop due to it shutting down on me and not restarting.(electrical) I tried to find the problem myself but all indications point to the ECU. Since it is still under warranty I am going to let them figure it out. Lucky me my wife has been kind enough to let me ride her bike.

My baby is gone, too. I dropped her off last night for her 7500 mile service and I won't see her again for another hour or so. The dealer just called and said she was ready and waiting for me.

I don't think I'm this lonely when my wife goes out of town on business.

The wife's shadow 750 just is not the same as the nomad. I miss her I miss the power.LOL I guess the 750 is better than driving my 4 door diesel at close to $4.00 a gallon.

Be sure to tell us what the problem was. Then we can have it checked too.
Good luck.

Well, blue tongue, the bad news is she's in the shop. The good news is she's still in warranty, and you won't be out of pocket for repairs. Hope ya get her back soon, and she's purring like a kitten.
