A friend had a 350 triple but I never had the pleasure of helping him with changing/adjusting the points.

It actually ran pretty well with the points as long as you had a feeler guage and screw driver to remove the timing plate cup if it should slip a bit.

Starting doing exercises to build up the muscles around the knees; squats, lunges, stair stepping. Soon I added weight. I don't have anymore pain in my knees (maybe a little, sometimes, but mostly it's gone).

The only thing funny about those is the realization that you will be old enough to experience why none of those are funny some day.

You know you're old when you fear falling over and crushing the tiny little technician while at a PT session.....

When the xray technician could be your granddaughter.

No matter how many times you shake it, there is still a couple drops left when you put it away.
