[QUOTE="Fe_princess, post: 162341, member: 24793"] [b]women working on their bikes[/b] I used to think that working on motors was "man stuff", but when struck out on my journey into motor land is when I realized how much fun it was. It felt good to be self-contained and not feeling helpless. Motors ceased to be this abstract contraption into cohesive parts working together. I pulled motors apart, replaced my brakes, adjusted my valves, replaced my head, replaced seals. The deeper I go into to it the more sense it started to make. Women are just as mechanically inclined as men, yet we are socialized at an early age to stay on our side of the clubhouse. I love talking to women about bikes and riding. I realize that I have as much prejudice about talking to men as men do about talking to women. We're all in this together. I just bought a KTM 200 and have yet to dig in and will post my foibles as I go along. Two-strokes scare me. It's like finding my way through a tunnel with wet matches. Super glad to have found this site! [/QUOTE]
