Initially I intended to do my brake rotors on Monday at a buddy's Harley Restoration business...where I would have access to a big lathe and milling machine.....had planned to just chuck the hubs in the lathe, lock it, and go from there....BUT....
Friday evening my buddy hit a deer while driving his BMW motorcycle....he is presently in intensive care in Morgantown, WV.....he was wearing a "1/2 hat" style helmet (I use the same)....and has suffered some heavy duty head trauma.....enough for the Life Flight Choppers to be called out!!!
So...I will be using the above mentioned method......I dunno if I would have figured that out myself, or not......as I had said I had planned to go a different route.
Thanx again...there is a wealth of info on these pages...
