Holy Stoppers Batman!!!

I got a nice care package from Beringer Brakes today and I could not be more excited!



It contained all the brake components for the Triton project. Here is just a peek at the 12.5" iron front rotors... Can you say "stoppies"? :)

The Little Bits

I know it has been far too long since I posted but good things are happening and happening so fast I can barely keep track! I am not complaining but I am looking forward to things slowing down a bit after I am back from Quail.

This time last month I traveled down to Portland Oregon with a couple of my good buddies for a week end of great food, cold whiskey, dancing ladies, and lots of rusty little car bits.

The Portland Antique swap meet is a feast for the eyes and I love sifting through table after table of rusty little bits to find gems like these:



From the great little selection I scored I will use this as the headlight of the Ducati and the red lens as the tail light. I have no idea what this light is off of but it looks to be from the 1920's or so. I found a nice little 50watt haligen bulb that poped right into it without modifications. Happy times!!!! :)
