Picked up a couple of new mechanics ... they are looking into and inspecting every little detail. Very amusing!







The reason these 2 are stationed in my garage is... a while back, mom slowly decided to adopt us as her family... she got pregnant and had some kittens about a month ago. 2 weeks after giving birth somewhere, she fell into a barrel of used oil in the neighbor's garage and showed up at my doorstep. She was covered, ears to tail. Tried the vet, but he just washed her with some cold water and soap, she was still ...gooey! Went online and decided to try to bathe her in... flour!

It did the trick, oil would "glue" to the flour, and then just brushing it off, she became a cat again. Through all that time, she had brought her kittens over kinda saying, "would you help with these too?" and we did.

Since then, we brought her back to the vet and we took care of business... no more kittens from now on.

So, we have a family of 3 living in the garage, and 2 of them seem to be interested in Triumph bikes!

You need to attach little buffing pads to their feet so they can detail your bike for you.

I thought they were the buffing pads.

If you remove your cats you get better engine performance. At least that's what I've heard.

Hope they don't have Cat Scratch Fever and mess up the paint, that would be Cat-a-strophic.
