Thank you for your detailed Bike Maintenance description @Former-Member Wow, oh my - You are knowledgeable about Motorcycles.
Unfortunately, having not ridden in 30 years - I had never learned the maintenance side of things.
I have not owned a Bike in 30 years, since my Yamaha XS250 (1978 Model) -
Which was already 15 years old, when I got it.
This Honda CB125F is brand new, has not been ridden yet.
I only knew of the Honda CB250 (not the CB125F), which I have ridden a few times, years ago -
Yet the CB250 was not available from any of the Dealers here, 5 months ago.
Instead the Honda CB125F was available, & at a good low price too.
I've also ridden a few different Yamahas, & the Suzuki GN250 - Which was taken out of production/ Shelved about 30 years ago.
Wow, I really do have a long way to go to learn about Mechanical Maintenance.
My Hand-Eye Coordination has always been rather poor - Plus I have Dyslexia.
So that has meant low confidence in Hands-On Practical Skills that require Good Body Coordination & Problem-Solving, etc.

@creative_writer Communicating with people can be very difficult. Sometimes you can’t even communicate what you need, because you have been trained to disregard your own needs.

Dear @creative_writer
Thanks for asking. Since you wrote that post 🏣 iv been mulling it over.
It's like when I went to California for 5 weeks it took me 6 weeks to recover from the trip.
Remembering that trip a long time ago - 20 years ago,
In January, this year at 23 January, I had weight reduction operation 4 hours.
I still haven't recovered. Im forgetting appointments, or too exhausted to go.
It's like my anxiety is overwhelming. Lots of appointments are too overwhelming.
Also the more help I get via carers coming over, the more tired I am. I usually walk, run around but today, I just want to go to bed.
I say stupid things.
I can't keep up.
It feels unfair but my case is only one of hundreds, thousands in that I can get a tutor when I can budget it in.
I can stop and rest.
At least I'm not studying nor needing to work anymore. That would be awful me thinks.
I'm interested in how you are going.
How do you manage the day ??

Hello 👋🏼 @oceangirl is it a late night or early morning for you?
