Tightened the last bolt, ready for a test run......
« on: June 18, 2009, 08:58:35 AM »
After much anguish I finally got my goldwing calipers on and all the bolts tightened, was about to bleed the brakes and go for a full speed test drive. My first real ride in 6 months and then this happens....I'm the 'x'

Ouch.

I woke up at 2AM this morning to 80mph winds rocking my entire apartment-above-a-garage.
