No , it is a ( careful ) easy installation , I posted a long time ago , this is the best money spent on a mod you will never ( well almost ) see .

Uh , the arc of the swingarm is the reason for a two piece driveshaft . When the output shaft , swingarm pivot and the rear axle centerline are parallel , the distance is the greatest .

Hmm . the end ( on the throttle side) has what looks like the barrel lock on SnapOn and Cornwell tool boxes . I don't know what to do now ?

This bar end moves in / out 3/8". I cannot turn the Allen bolt to loosen or tighten anything . I bought these from a "member" of this site . I tried contacting him MULTIPLE times with no response . I will never purchase ANYTHING from this member again . I am trying to buy a used one to cut a apart to see if I can lock the threaded portion so I can remove / repair this situation .

It is unbelievable how much an idiot can do personalizing these bikes ,

At the rear , the driveshaft will rotate 2.9 Xs for every wheel rotation . You can verify rear axle ratio by marking ( with a dot or mark ) on the driveshaft and the rear wheel . Rotate the rear wheel one revolution while counting the driveshaft rotations . If you get 3 driveshaft revolutions for 1 wheel revolution you have 3/1 ratio .

I have a rig like Footgoose's Lincoln that is about 6'' long and bendable . I have NO problem greasing the front joint . I have a bout a dozen adapters to grease just about everything .

Now that's good .

I would interview him with a lot of questions before I went anywhere on this .

Keep your old stuff . You can sell it off on this site .

Bike looks terrific ! As far as brake fluid flush : use DOT 4 fluid . Excellent , all the good points .mixes w//DOT 3 . DOT 5 / aka silicone fluid . Light blue hue . Incompatible with any other brake fluids . The 4 is almost as high a temp fluid as 5 . Not worth the change .

My black frame has a one wire throttle cable system .

# ! remove the shifter pivot bolt . Loosen the locking nut behind the bolt , hold the nut w/a wrench and unscrew the pivot bolt . If it is rusty , lubricate the bolt and shifter and replace . If it is not , plan on removing the shift cover and repair .

How much slack are we talkin' about ?

Uh oh . I've created a moniker !

Does ANYONE have a junk clip-on ? I need it t experiment ( cut apart ) on . I bought a pair of clip-ons and one of the weights is LOOSE . I want to cut it apart to see how to fix it . It is the throttle side . It looks like a barrel key works it . Think large tool box key .

Youre a pretty smart man . We are glad you are on this forum . BTW , when you get through you are going to have The Batman version of a Scura !

Huh ? no habla espanol

PD , the second relay complements a good known working system . It is not made to cure anything . It is made to prevent excessive load to the start system .

You can't eBay ? Read my heresy on the automotive ( marine actually ) relay in series to the OEM starter relay on the V11 . This keeps all the solenoid current off the factory EVERYTHING on the bike .

Thanks brother !

Hmmmmm . that would generate some $$$ too ! BTW , what color did you use on the chops ? It does look good ! Oh yeah , you found a part # for the oil filter in Baldwin . What is the part # ?

You are either single , using this as a business write-off or have a great marriage !

I will get rid of the old ones for you .

Or , we could swap out front forks . Those Ohlins just don't cut it for the stealth look . I could tolerate the gold look !
