We awoke this morning at 4:30 with a rooster crowing up a storm so we grabbed some breakfast, checked my oil, (which was really low) and then headed out. We made good time until we stopped for lunch when my bike decided to try starting itself over and over. I had a alarm put in before I left which came with a tilt sensor, automatic starter, and a couple of other fancy options. When I stopped, I turned the key to off and then the starter kicked on. I hit the kill switch, took out the key but nothing helped. I turned the key back to on and it started the bike back up. I didn't have a clue what to do so I let it run until we found a bike shop to go to. By the time we got to the shop and turned the bike off, the battery was dead. One of the mechanics jumped my bike which must have reset the the alarm and it was working again. I didn't want this to happen in Mexico so I had to get it fixed. We had to wait to get it fixed because the shop we were at couldn't fix it for a couple of days. I've had a little bad luck on this trip but really, it can't any worse.....right?
