Title: So it's official
Post by: bombsquad83 on February 29, 2012, 01:55:57 PM
My first child is a boy due in July.  This should be interesting...  Does anyone have a manual for the 2012 model?

When changing the oil make sure not to get any on yourself or spill it on anything.  :thumb:

I think I saw a poster that said not to rock them. You're supposed to shake them if they keep crying.  :thumb:

all models occasionally blow an ass gasket. this isnt a manufacturing defect. it happens on all models. overlook this. keep it fueled, and clean. all will go well

Wow! Congrats dude!
Is the missus going to let you out of the house for some riding when the weather turns nice? (or, at least, predictable)

My manual is for a Model T, so I can't help ya....  :dunno_black:  However, I've found that if they don't run right or are making funny noises, get 'em into the garage as fast as possible, close the door quickly, and then wait for everything to be quiet before going back in (haven't heard a sound in years now...this works really well!!!)  :icon_mrgreen:

 :D Thanks for the advice guys. 

Nobody knows exactly how a woman will change her tune after the baby is born, but as of right now I don't think it would be a problem to get away for a ride every once in a while.

The only model I know where the amount of intake is not always related to the amount of exhaust
