Civilian contractor if I remember right. Congress keeps cutting the funding so his job is an up and down thing. They've even pulled him out of the grocery store once to send him to the desert.
If you were close I would say come over I have every thing here to do it I use to do a lot of motor cycle parts and some TPI parts. Send me some picks ans if its some thing I can do quick you can send them my way, Im no pro but I think I do a good job here is a before and after of the swing arm I did for my buell.
