I don't know why I left for so long. I'm having error code 19 that I need to get fixed, and then I need new chain, sprockets, valve adjustment, new tires and an oil change and filter. Then I should be ready to ride. :)
 
A little more than a year later. I was diagnosed with bladder cancer in December 2016, lost my job in January 2017, had surgery to remove the bladder and cancer at the end of February. That was all the bad stuff.

Now I moved back to Chicago and retired, kept the bike, did the High Alpine motorcycle tour with Edelweiss Bike Travel in July (awesome with all those mountain passes and switchbacks). I still have a ways to go in healing but it looks good. The surgery I had is a radical cystectomy and prostectomy. I now have a bladder made out of 18" of my small intestine.
