What did you do on or to your other bike part 2

My thoughts too, but also why I do all of my own maintenance as well. I've seen what some shops are like, they LOVE impact wrenches... Confused and in reality I'm already putting myself in a more risky situation riding a motorcycle to begin with. I don't need some shop tech rushing the work on my bike just because its end of the work week on Friday, that then causes something to go wrong on my bike and put me at more risk. 
Plus, I do enjoy wrenching and learning more about motorcycles.
