sounds like you have a decent to do list too! if its dark when you get there, i would pass on a first timer night ride  ;)     i wont even go out the first night i get there, but thats prob because its usually 1 am or later when i get there :D     

so not sure what kind of clutch cable system your running but, when i was building them, i eliminated the cables by mounting hydraulic slave cylinders right to the arm on the clutch case. easy to do then, all hydraulic from there one. just make sure you build a clutch pedal stop so you don't over throw it.

This 750 clutch cable has to last until Nov-1 and the new Busa has a hydraulic unit that I will be doing a foot clutch.  My old car, I did a Willwood MC and built a stop in to keep it from over throwing. 

Clutch is fully operational.   :s send it!

bring a spare  ;D hate to miss out on any fun over that!

I'm going to look around for spare cables and ends, just in case.  I won't let a clutch cable spoil my fun!  No need for a clutch to shift!  HAA

We're getting closer to done.  Got the new tires and wheels on the trailer, also I got the wrap put on the body panels. Just a couple of loose ends to tie up. In the mean time I'm going to sleep.




See you all duneside.😎🤙
