Default Chump Change is Home!

Got back from Daytona a few hours ago & unloaded my new ride. Here's a few pics my builder took yesterday. Can't ride her yet, front master cylinder seems to have a bad seal & I need to fix it before I ride around here....However, she's titled & home & I'm a VERY happy camper!

Congrats, looks great. Where's that big smile? Or you going for the tough love look?

Thumbs up

Well here's hoping it's a simple fix so you can get some time on it before your trip.

I'm gonna get Wal to send me a new set of master cylinders (levers). And I'm gonna have him BENCH TEST 'em this time! That's a $1,500 set-up & they need to be right!

It was sorta a gimme. Marcus' last build was the "Spare Change" & ,since my settlement for my arm was next to nothing, "Chump Change" was born.

I keep going out to look at her. I think I'm in love!

From what I can tell, she's gonna handle sweet. Gotta get used to that 107" engine, though!
