I was at Leif’s this weekend. He was nice enough to spend his Sunday with me in the shop working on the bike. We installed the new shock and rerouted the electrical cable for the halogen lights. It doesn’t sound much when you say it like that but this took almost all day. The Wilbers preload adjuster is not designed to go in the standard location on a V-Strom. Leif took his time to manufacture a steel bracket to host the adjuster on the original place. This is his art, and he does it with pleasure. I like people who give themselves to what they do. You can see it in everything they do. He had spent most of his time last few years on developing a clutch system. Patented and all… I saw the part. It is simply amazing. I can easily say that it is the most precise piece of machinery I have ever seen. Check out his website to see what I mean: www.wagnerlewis.com
Here are some pictures from his shop at home and the part he built for me.
