        Hope so!
        And contrary to common automotive lore, Automobiles and 
        Understanding Wives is NOT an oxymoron. 
        They DO peacefully co-exist, given the right conditions.

        A good case in point.
        But aren't you transgressing the unwritten law ...
        Only pre-1950 motorcycles can be disassembled in bedrooms.
        Engines up to 2 litres are assigned to larger rooms, namely
        lounges and hallways, preferably carpeted, to soak up oil.
        Over 3 litres - by negotiation.
