The transmission man where I worked was good with that thing. He was good with everything he tried, actually. Only about 35 now, he gives me hope for the future of our business. A few years ago he quit because of the manager and we figured it cost the dealer at least $200k because he was gone for a year and came back when the manager was replaced.

I wonder if they could develop a noise analyzer for bikes. Yesterday my friend's BMC was creaking something awful. Sounded like the BB to me.
