Cal and his brother recognized in ROTCR post
« on: June 07, 2015, 08:15:06 AM »
Cal and his brother Steve were recently recognized for their electrical expertise in wiring Cognitomoto's commissioned CB350 for Fox Racing. Fantastic work!

Maybe the best part, Don, was getting to see your triples be designed and made long before you got them!  :P

 :o Haha!  Awesome!

Great job concealing all of the electrical!    ;D

So awesome! Way to go Devin and Cal! Were you not as punctual on your response to my text earlier because you were fielding interview calls?

Cal was already in demand as the forum resident Motogadget wiring guru.  Now he's going to "sought out" from the general population of builders!  ;)

Cal is definitely the wiring guru.  That wiring job he did on that bike is pure bike porn.  I've looked at it at least 20 times in hopes of one day emulating something similar.

Sweet! 

I've been thinking about the possibility of using the M-Unit on my 64 Corvair. The wiring is equally as simple...

Maybe someday I will be the authority on....anything.
