Tooling Around
Motorcycles are grand mechanical devices. That alone is reason enough to spark passion, although many motorcycle enthusiasts prefer the riding part of the deal. I am somewhere in between. I enjoy riding on bikes and wrenching on them.
The experiences of motorcycle restoration, customization, and maintenance are complemented by the need for tools, which are admirable mechanical devices on a different scale. Tools, like motorcycles, are considered a harmful addiction by those lacking a passion for inanimate items. But one can never have too many motorcycles or too many tools.
