For the paint on the engine of the Hypermotard to cure it was necessary to get it at working temperature. So on an average sunday I rolled the bike out of the garage and started her up. As expected the engine ran beautifully but I had to leave it stationary outside of the garage as it wasn't drivable yet. Some neighbors passed by and complemented the bike on the nice note from the exhaust. Eventually the bike got at working temperature and let it cool off again. I repeated this several times as it was instructed by the paint company. This will benefit the end result and should give a lasting and durable coat of paint.
After I stored the bike back in the garage again I went to my father who lives nearby. I didn't had to tell him what I was doing that afternoon. Perhaps he ran into some of the neighbors and spoken to them? He didn't speak to anyone... ...he gruffly remarked that he could clearly hear the bike run from inside his house. Perhaps I do need to fit Db-killers on this bike?
