Goodbye

Bittersweet.

It's time to say good by to Benny the Bultaco.  It's for sale.

The backwards foot pedals are too much for me to manage.  I've almost crashed just driving around the neighborhood - so there is no way I'm getting on the bigger roads.

Someone asked me if I was unhappy about it. All the work and effort, and then it goes.  I don't see it that way.

So many things I learned doing this.  How to take a motorcycle wheel apart and then lace it back together.

So many parts of Houston explored - powder coating guys, chrome platers, and one excellent motorcycle mechanic.

I'll sell it for less than I have into it, but I'm still glad I did it.  I hope whoever buys it loves it.
