Safe to say for all of us the answer must surely be... "Duh, I don't know." (unless you have the answer 'off the top of your head' but I don't think so.)

Yeah, but the request was in thou's
.8mm - 31.495 thou .9mm = 35.433 thou.
So use 32 thou and 36 thou feeler gauges.

True story, the way I heard it...When President Reagon was in office, congress passed a bill to convert all highway signs and official Government business to the decimal system, which would have finally pushed the American people to accept the metric system. He couldn't stop the bill, but he could do the next best thing. He pulled the funding out of the system that was going to get the work done. One thing he did that I liked.

Yeah, there were some pretty intelligent responses by a some of the other folks, but good ol' "monkeyshines" and "Leftoverhippie"(who it looks like was banned from their website after our little "discussion", and I'm guessin' because he couldn't resist throwin' in his own political opinions into it) were real "pieces o' works", weren't they?! And those two especially just exemplified some of the "classic" H-D riders image many of us hold for what I think is pretty good cause sometimes. (of course, in their defense, I DO have to admit that I "might've" contributed to their, let's say, anti-social behavior, seein' as how after reading some of their over-the-top initial responses to others in that thread, I took it upon myself with my very first posting to "imply" that some Harley riders sometimes "ain't the sharpest knives in the ol' drawer"!!!)

Hey now Keith, if YOUR motorcycle was sittin' in pieces all around YOU in YOUR garage, with the handlebars over THERE somewhere, the forks sittin' over THERE somewhere, that thing-a-ma-bob sittin' over THERE somewhere, and all those OTHER pieces sittin' that box of stuff over THERE somewhere...well, I wonder how YOUR sense o' humor(once again, notice the lack of that superfluous-u in that word "humor", if you will) would be???!!!
If that was me I'd just call BSABOB.
