Nice job!

Remember - the customer is not always right but they are always the customer!!

I'll report back when mine turn up. Don't see why they wouldn't be a perfect match but you never know.

He agrees that the Chinese bushings will probably work, but he wants to run in the next Moto Giro and can't wait for their delivery, so I turned a couple of bushings for him.

One of his is still good and left it in place, but replaced the other. We'll see how it works out.

Really. :-)

He's going to order a couple of the Chinese version from the US site you'd found..... and thank you again for that. The Giro he is participating in is next w/e near Knoxville, so they would have never made it. This one should work just fine for him in the interim.
