I shaved my front end!!!1!


The goal last night was to finish smoothing the right (left in the pic) front fork. I got that done. So I thought, I'll just take a little scotchbrite to the trees (where the forks get clamped into) since those were a little crappy looking. The bottom one was no problem, 5 minutes. I was looking at the top and I decided to do a little more work on it. So I cut the "eyebrow" mounting tabs off and smoothed that out. If you look at the pic a few posts down, you can see what it look like before. This is something that not a lot of people do (yeah, it's a little work but not too difficult. Cut and file, easy enough). But I think it cleans up the front pretty good. The only thing I don't like is the two small holes. Someday I'll fill them in but not today.
