Old motorcycles, too! First thing you do is take the saddle off and put
it on the ground so you have somewhere to sit. If you get stuck, you can
take the engine out, put it in the trunk of your (or someone else's car)
and drive it to someone who can fix it.

I was lamenting to my son that my new car doesn't have voice commands
(that's part of the tech upgrade, which cost around $2K).

He responded with "Mine doesn't even have an aux-in plug!"

Mind you, his car was free, and I did give him my old cassette to headphone
ack
adapter.
