 I'm out in the garage on the weekend and I have to replace these little
pretzel like steel brake lines that go between the backing plate and the
flex hose on my Duster, on the front brakes. Now the easy thing would be to
call Year One or some other such company but instead it took me several
tries to make a replacement line, I have trouble making double flares.
Anyways it gets me thinking about the book Zen and the Art of Motorcycle
Maintenance and how to get quality one has to put oneself into the object .
This is done through concentration and effort,and understanding what it is
you are trying to achieve.This is what I love about working on my own
machine, the quality or lack thereof is a direct reflection of me. It was a
little project but fun nonetheless because I did it myself. What about you
guys out there?                                               Scott
