VICTORY IS MINE ON THE REAR BRAKE!! i rebuilt my rear master cylinder, and now, walla, after bleeding for a few minutes i have a rear brake that works as good as ever!!

and the fail.... buell/HD of omaha ordered me spark plug wires.. didnt stock them (or anything else yet) and the turd ordered the wrong one!!!! the front was right. rear, was the same length as the front. BUMMER!!! so the parts guy loses points for the day. i will call them and get another one ordered. (from now on, im getting my own part numbers and ordering them online from one of our sponsers whenever i need parts.. i mean hell, my local dealership has to order them anyways, i might as well order them and have them shipped to my door.)

also, i got the power steering fixed on my race truck! and hopefully got the tranny leak cured.. it was a busy day.

Any Drag Specialties dealer can get you accel 8.8 mm plug wires for your bike for about $26.95 and have them in a day or two.

"...i might as well order them and have them shipped to my door."

Except for filters, I stopped going to dealers for parts years ago. I get my parts shipped to where I work. The FedEx man always talks about bikes when he brings me stuff.

Wal-Mart sells the same oil filters ...

Been running them for years now ...

Have a 104,0195.1 miles as of the last ride and they work fine for me ...

Actually run two, one in the OEM position and one in the return line ...
