I really understand the work involved in restoring a project (car,motorcycle,boat). So it is easy not to want to ride them after you have given them a shake down to prove all your work. I have actually sold a motorcycle I restored, because I couldn't bring myself to really enjoy it. Silly isn't. Anyhow, I was lucky enough to find a bike that didn't need really any attention at all. So it is easy for me to just enjoy waxing her and taking her for rides, which I do often. Weather permitting that is.
