It was cool riding them at first but now I'd just as soon not. Pain in the butt to get crank and cams in time. And when it's rear tire changing time.. RUN!!!!! what a PITA. My dealer is one of probably few that still permit 'regulars' into the service area. It isn't uncommon to aide one of the wrenches from time to time. I had the pleasure of assisting in one of those rear tire changes from ******. You are absolutely right on the money with that, Chy - It was not fun. Every bit a two man job with a non-motorized changer - and it still was a nightmare. 2004 Triumph Speedmaster (J Lo) 2006 Yamaha Stratoliner (Adele)
