I tried changing the oil on my bike last week, and didn't know you had to level out the bike to check levels, and screwed it up.
I went on a few of those forums... I feel like it still seems like its latin, I think I need a crash coarse in mechanics or something. Little things that most people know, like each bolt having a spec'ed torque... I don't know that stuff.
So... did you learn this stuff in a class or something?
