    Life is a challenge. You can take the risk and experience it, or sit back and watch it go by. I choose to experience it. (W.L.Heath)

    Fear is the incubated subjective perception of the inevitable.

    The seat isn't your chain....I'm confused....

    My most neglected part is probably my paint.

    I try to neglect all of the parts equally.

    It's all water under the bridge, and we do enter the next round-robin. Am I wrong?

    The Front tire. It spends to much time hanging around in the air.

    similarly, I rarely remove the seat fairing to clean the passenger seat. I think I've done it once in over a year of ownership.
    I also tend to neglect my wheels, as I typically only clean them when I plan to go out on a ride with you.

    As far as most neglected part on my bike not in terms of cleaning, would have to be all of the crap (chain gaurd, sprocket cover, belt covers, stock mirrors,cans, and clutch cover) that I took off the bike that are just sitting in a pile in the house

    Pretty much the same here but I am under 1k this year Between work, crazy hours (work all day and all night) and commuting before I never felt confident that I wouldn't be too tired after a few miles

    Recently with the move I've been busy with work and the move, still have to get the bike out here too.

    Rear brakes

    Most people are right handed and without a rear brake you couldn't pick your nose at stop lights
