    Goons are on the way. And no, I don't believe beggin-strips will dissuade them...

    I LIKE where you are going with that.

    How about instead of a nut as a spacer, you use a sealed bearing. You can make a pivot fulcrum that fits to the bearing and now you will have a nice, smooth action on the pedal.

    Well the nut was just temporary. I had thought of using a brass bushing for the pivot but I like your idea of a bearing and will use that instead.

    That seems to be happening to a couple of us who are insiders. I have reported that so I am sure they will come up with a fix.

    yeah, I noticed that today, too. it has to do with the new style we switched to not being set up for the oversize avatars that insiders get. it will have to be manually set up.

    Ducc - sign up on the home page. Donate $20 or something like that. Do you like boobs? I'm just saying...I'm off to go visit the insiders section.

    I was not happy with how my paint turned out so I took it to someone. Tomorrow I should be able to place the decals and he will clear coat. Plastic should be ready for pickup next week.

    yes decals








    brake headache has officially been conquered. Pick up some miscellaneous hardware tomorrow, polish off some sharp corners on the brackets, and apply some paint.

    Next stop - local tubes and hoses guy to get custom brake lines fabricated.
