My alloy bracket
Last time I played with alloy, everybody told me I should have asked for help ( http://www.ducatisportingclub.com/xm....php?tid=26019 ). Here we are, attached is a picture of my rear brake lever bracket (the surrounding objects should help you guessing its real size).

I'm quite proud of me, even if I thought I could have done something a little bit less... ugly

I've used a black pen to draw on the bracket what I would have liked to be able to do... Anyone who could help me a little bit?

Take the bracket to the dustbin and give your money to a shop to buy the correct thing :P

good 1st attempt Tonio - keep trying, its how you find out that either:

a, you get better at it
or
b, you save to get someone else to do it
or
c, you just buy one off the shelf

That's very true my friend, but I did spend £30,000 on racing to get where I am, and I still have to pay for everything except the bike - which I would buy if I had the money.

But, you're right, I'm a lucky son of a biatch

I think your bracket was fine - I just wanted to make a joke

That's quite expensive for such a result

I was joking as well, I don't think there is room for luck in racing...

If it was fine before, how is it now
