IMHO. Start a separate thread. Post your pictures, show the damage, ask the questions. bill

Laramie,
Congrats on the new bike, it's amazing how well the 990 handles off road for such a heavy bike.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm starting to get greyed out, have both knees rebuilt so far, but hopefully won't see a walking stick at my side for another 30 years or so.
Still have that '07 BTW  Dirty
