Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

Part 1:

I feel like there were two stories taking place at the same time.  there was the present time where the narrator is traveling on his bike and then there is the story of Phaedrus.  I am not that much interested in motorcycles so the story of Phaedrus kept me hooked onto the book.  I was confused about the part where the narrator talks about how he was in the hospital and that whole experience.  The narrator says "I see things with my own eyes, and I see things with his eyes too.  He once owned them."  From this passage i came to the conclusion that he is Phaedrus.  The narrator according to me has a split personality.  What conclusion did you come up with after reading this part?
