My wifes ride.
Last Saturday afternoon, I was sitting on my lawn chair, drinking beer
and watching my wife mow the lawn.
The old bat from next door was so upset at this that she came over And
shouted..." you should be hung!"
I took a slug from my stubby, wiped the cold foam from my lips, lifted
my darkened sunglasses, stared directly at this nosey woman and calmly
replied, "I am, that's why she cuts the grass."
After a few days I felt really bad so I went and bought my wife a
ride-on mower to show my sensitive side.
I am so proud of the deal I got, I have attached a picture.
And you guys call me insensitive.
Question; should I do a resto on it or would that showing too much of my sensitive side?

You might not want to do a full restoration. Mask off the original decals & paint 'er all one color. Or maybe just leave it in the rain, so the bike's patina matches the mower's.
Gotta love Australian beer...
