My daughter says she knows where I can get a pair of Honda Nighthawks for $800...
She did not, however, explain how I'd pay for the lawyer when SWMBO sued for divorce.

Sounds like a smart kid.
See how smart when SHE tells her Ma that it's all her idea!
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

Got the new master cylinder and installed it. Quite a fight getting it bled and discovered that the banjo fittings on the braided stainless lines were loose. Which is probably where the original leak was anyway.
But, the new MC has a larger piston in it and now that I've got it bled and adjusted, it will STOP that bike!
Crappy weather and busy work schedule for the next several days, but there will be some serious riding done ASAP.
