I wasn&#8217;t comfortable in cutting and shaping the pad to an acceptable level, so I&#8217;m going to wait for a precut seat. I also bled the front brakes again. The lever feel of the brakes are a bit too soft for my liking, but I think that&#8217;s mostly related to the front master cylinder. The Brembo unit on the Husqvarna feels a lot more firm.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless, this let me take the bike out for a spin&#8230; the first time since finishing it up. I rode it around the neighborhood a few times to test things out. Everything seemed to be in order, although the front brakes don&#8217;t have the best of feel, the stopping power is definitely there. I&#8217;ve almost completely forgotten the riding position and pull of a sportbike.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a picture of my stable&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/blackandwhite.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-764\" title=\"blackandwhite\" src=\"http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/blackandwhite-540x405.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/blackandwhite-540x405.jpg 540w, http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/blackandwhite.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/cbrhusky.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-766\" title=\"cbrhusky\" src=\"http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/cbrhusky-540x405.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"405\" srcset=\"http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/cbrhusky-540x405.jpg 540w, http:\/\/grandmighty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/cbrhusky.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The new brake lever for the Husky finally got resolved today.
