Well, Tom, I'd venture to say that the 1150 Roadster may be the exception,
for even the most rapid of wrenches.  It took me over three hours yesterday,
feeling my way along and trying not to damage anything.  Granted, less than
a half-hour to button it back up, once I knew what to expect.  Nevertheless,
this is a ridiculous amount of effort for a necessary maintenance task.

Topping up the battery didn't help, BTW.  It may be toast.  I'm going to try
a bigger charger, and if that doesn't help, Odyssey may have gained another
customer.
