Now for my unexpected find which for me is 95% safety and 5% cool. I was looking for a brake light strobe/ flasher module and someone who would install it, (usually when I try electrical all the fuses will need to be replaced). As I expected there was a limited number of vendors at rally due to the we might have a rally to the rally is canceled to the rally is back on again 10 days before the event. That being said it still was not the biggest hurdle, as I expected, which is being metric in a HD world. When you ask a vendor if they have an item the reply is "we sure do", then you ask will it fit a metric bike and then you get the blank stare of why the f*ck did you waste my time with your insignificant request. Then when you just stare back they will mumble no and proceed to ostracize you from the area. So as I was making the round of a vendor area I spotted one more lighting vendor and thought why not get some more HD superiority put on me. As I was going through the display area a woman walks up and asks can I help you? My eye starts to twitch with the anticipation of rejection again when I told her what I was looking for. To my shock and awe she says "we got one right over here, it's a universal fit and will have to be hard wired". Now I am staring back with the blank stare and she has to repeat "you want it installed"? Mumbling yes with how long and how much the reply was $90 and 30 minutes, (yes I know it's a $20 part that anybody with a 8th grade education could do themselves but given my track record of ordering incorrect parts and promptly doing way more than $90 in damages) I shouted DO IT! Sure enough I was out within the 30 minutes and was glad I risked the shame of metric one more time.
