  1. speedy recovery. a good friend of mine just had this operation, make sure you follow the instructions on keeping the area around the tube clean.
  2. and the front wheel......just kiddin....
  3. i installed mine per instructions. i left the spacers whole. i also have block-offs and stainless de-link. it was VERY stiff for about 1000 miles, then loosened up a little. ps..sometimes fluid is leftover, so they may be getting overfilled

  5. good luck!

  18. not a bad deal, but i think i had about 20 bucks into my recover. of course it doesnt look as nice as an original cover. i left the brown cover on, sprayed glue on it and recovered.
  19. i just stapled a black vinyl over mine. marine grade. the chrome strip is just rubber 3m moulding. but i found a Corbin on ebay, now this just takes up space.
  20. i will check the connection, but, i just put a new bulb in and it looked ok. where is the reserve lighting device?
  21. i have no low beam. it worked, very dimly, for a short period...maybe a couple weeks. started it this morning and no low, high beam works but shows a draw on gauges. bulb is about a month old. any ideas?
