The issue of reliability occurred to me last night, as I was riding
the Z. I realized that my ominous predictions that I would never trust the Z again were unfounded. I've been riding it with my normal level of confidence. That's good, it would be silly to shelve the bike just because one piece of wire was routed wrong on assembly.

Unfortunately, the Goldwing isn't giving me such warm-n-fuzzy feelings. The starter has been acting up for the last few weeks, and I have a feeling it's not going to last much longer. It's been displaying all the classic signs: running sluggishly when warm; solenoid failed to kick in recently; running sluggishly when cold. I'm going to have to read up on how much utter asspain is involved in fixing this problem (ie, replacing the starter).
