Good morning from 0 degree Boise! I am working on tearing apart my 81 GL500 and video recording every step for my own benefit. Would this be something I should post on Youtube to possibly help others? I am no mechanic but usually work on my own stuff. I dont know half of what I am looking at until I grab a manual. I am having a great time doing this and just wanted some feedback on if others might benefic from it or just enjoy watching me make a fool of myself. I am trying to do it in 10 minute segments and pre loosening everything so the videos are not painfully slow. Curious what the community thinks of the idea.

Looks nice! (y)
It goes man. Been a rough year. The house was a nice reprieve from all the other garbage thats gone on for me, but it's also added projects. I need to get past this injured shoulder and PT so I can get back to working on bikes. I maybe get one good day of heavy lifting then I'm toast. How have you and the fam been?
Yeah, to me a house is a blessing and a curse. Now it depends on what kind of house it is. I have a 50+ year old "fixer upper" so there is ALWAYS something that needs done... which ALWAYS takes time away from what you want to do. That is partially why i haven't made any progress on my bike, life has gotten in the way and it unfortunately has taken a backseat to everything else. :(

Sorry to hear about your injury & rehab, not fun.

Every blessing is a burden, and every burden is a blessing. That's true of everything.
hmm, i'll have to ponder that one, sounds very philosophical.
I took some time off due to moving. Back at it and making progress. Should have it mostly together this coming weekend.
