I picked up my motorcycle and drove it to the office. The clutch is pretty sticky, although Dan did everything he could to make it better without replacing the whole cable. But I’ll get used to it I’m sure, after a few false starts at lights.

Dan Cunningham fixed up the bike, which is a 1974 Kawasaki and pretty much a real beater. He did an amazing job and replaced so much and got it really running wonderfully. Plus he was super nice and had great prices. So if you need Minneapolis motorcycle repair you should call him at 612-729-1846. He also is a motorcycle mechanic for vintage bikes in the winter. He did say that not only are the Ducati’s incredibly expensive to fix, but there would be a long wait time. He advised me to rethink the Suzuki SV650 or the new Ninja - so now I’ve heard from 3 or 4 independant and knowledgeable people that those ones are the best starter bikes… That is what my friend Dave who is a sound designer in Brooklyn rode all last year.
