Michael,
Yes, this summer has had me running and fixing lawnmowers et al.  (Triumph 
training?)

Also, in the interest of saving on shipping costs, I'd repair one system up 
until I'd have to order something, write it down, then just move on to 
another system. It was the brakes, then the steering, then body work, then 
...I'd order a dozen parts at once.  Now, two years later I'm wondering why 
did I need a particular part I just ordered.  FT warned me to stick with 
just one system until completion, but I had to learn the hard way.

Glad to know that I'm not the only gradual completer!  I couldn't fault the 
list for thinking, "well, we tried to caution him about those brake 
seals...too bad."
Thanks,
Paul Dorsey   60 TR3     TS71something
