For me, all language is an art form, chinese calligraphy is a very beautiful expression of that Humanbeing. Just good to look at!
Medieval english is just as difficult, but worth the effort when reading the classics or early writings even with a dictionary next to you, you get a better feel for the mind of the writer and sometimes you find a rhythm, almost a song, in the writing that does not show in the translations. But pinyin and so on is a good idea, for the masses then to be educated and get at least some exposure to the classical scholars through simple proverbs.

Jape,
A good primer on Hanzi characters. Go through this and you understand how characters are formed.
Calligraphy is also a form of meditation here.

hey wouldn't that be a good phrase for our mcm patch?
Re: Engine Break-in - How did you do it?
Lol not very sure. And during my last trip I found common people to be just as fine as motorcyclist, if not even more fine. I would not want McM to become yet another motorcycling elitist group.

Back to Topic - Engine Break-in
I am debating holding out for alittle warmer weather before I fire it up. We're still in the 30's here hit and miss 40-50 degree days. Does anyone have a comment on the temp affects, weather it is suggested to run her in alittle warmer temps or should I just do it? Open to suggestions - And No Comments from Jape! Grumpy old fart! JK Jape. I'm sure he'll chime in with his comments. LMAO :)

Dear JTC,
Unless you are tens of degrees below freezing, ambient temperature shouldn't have a lot to do with it. Except for rider comfort, of course. if you are getting days up into the 40s and 50s, which for us in the 99% of the world that uses Celsius translates into the 5-15C range, hey, that's pretty rideable! Just strap on your long johns and some safety gear and, if the pavement is dry and snow-free, as Bar None says, swoosh, just do it. Give her time to warm up before hitting the streets. Then see how she runs, and if she's not complaining, start pushing her a bit. Lord knows you've had enough time to look at each other.
Good luck!
