I don't know if it's just the new paint or all the work I did to her. She rides better then ever. Smooth and tight. I really feel the difference especially with the brakes. Those Galfer brake lines are fantastic. I recommend them to anyone. Front brake feels like power brakes now. It actually took a little getting used to. This week I hope to get her pin striped and I also want to get my gas cap re powder coated in a satin black. It is a gloss black now and I don't think it looks quite right.

I had the same reaction when I changed out my brake lines too. I think that the sale on Pashnit is over now, but if anybody wants the upgrade, it's well worth waiting for the next one.

  Glad you got her out today Dave.  I agree about the brake lines. While some may disagree, I think they are great, more responsive, etc.  Same with clutch line.  can't wait to see the new look.

I tried to change my avatar but it won't let me . I guess I'm doing something wrong.

for some reason it takes several hours. At least for me it did. If you change it just leave it for a day and it will go thru. :cooldude: Just noticed it looks like you took your avatar out try putting your pic in there and wait for awhile.

Also Dave on your avatar pic I think it needs to come off a real pic from your computer not from a link on a photo service . The avatar pic is the only thing I could do successfully. So my advice is worth diddly.

Dave;
After you did my Valk, she feels like a new and different (better) machine. I was anticipating the same result on yours.
Enjoy it. :cooldude:
