Oh, since you asked. First I have to wiggle to the right to the exit door around a 41 by 47 inch 'T' corner (coming up the 'T'), with a bathroom door about 26 inches wide offset to the left coming about half way center at the top of the 'T'. There is no way to do it without a 'bathroom maneuver'. Once in the straight line the exit door is 31 inches so an easy straight push through the door. Then, the elevator is 52 by 76 inches. The door (to the right side) is 40 inches, so again, it will have to come in at an angle and barely fit once clearing the door. Add 450 pounds of an awkward shape you don't want to damage or get stuck, doing it like a ninja a top secret mission, or a David Copperfield disappearing magic trick because it has to be done as such, I suppose you get the picture.

Sorry Stan. Elevator shafts frighten me ! :ohmy: Base-Jumps are exciting but generally, not enough height or room for my canopy to open in those short buildings and I don't like standing in any open door above an abyss, without my rig ! (regardless of how many air-mattresses you provide at the bottom):blink:
You could have picked an easier building to maneuver through :side: ...... Or a smaller bike !:pinch:

I guess bangee jumping for the bike is out of the picture as well.. Damn....
Well scotch, gotta work with what I have here... And pertaining to the 'smaller bike' remark - how could you!?! :evil: I'd rather cut my veins trying than exercise the idea of having another bike! It's a keeper, be it if it was just destined to be my sleeping partner.
PS. Now I get why people call bikes a 'she' :woohoo:

Mine is my Mistress ! It took a few years to get the bugs out and I don't Miss-that-Stress ! Don't have a name for it. Don't refer to it as "she" but it's been called every name under the sun, in the early the years.

So, the AW82-TR1 coils are installed on the bike, all the spark plugs connected. Just waiting for balance resistors and the ignition part will be done.
