1300 wheel for the darkside mod is on its way, I would recommend some new bearings they felt a little rough and they do have 21000 miles on them. The road grime is just a little xtra I threw in there for you, it comes from illinois ohio indiana missouri arkansas tennesee mississippi louisiana, Yeah so it's been a while since it's been cleaned. Laughing Laughing Enjoy the darkside

thanks Pard, as soon as I get the rest of my presses mounted in the new house here I'll be making a box of goodies to send your way as well. As soon as I can I will get a DS mounted and report my likes and/or dislikes to the group.

Thanks again,
George

George,

Dislikes......hehehehe You obviously don't know what you are getting into. You will burn your motorcycle tire and dance around the smoke naked, you will be so happy about your darkside.

I can't wait to you get it either.......it's gonna be great.

hehehe, you want me to send you pictures of me dancing around nekkid?? If so, sorry to dissapoint cause it ain't gonna happen.

BTW, When I do get it on and try it out I will put it through the paces to the extreme and give you a full unbiased review from the standpoint of a very experienced rider as well as from a MSF RiderCoach (I know that doesn't make me an expert witness or anything, but I like to think I am pretty intune with what's happening when on two wheels) Of course I already have an idea of what I EXPECT it to be like, but I'll try really hard not to let that influence my actual perceptions of the darkside.

Gstanfield

I told ya there was plenty of cleaning to do. Don't forget to check/replace the bearings. I thought they felt a little rough to me. Good luck and we are anxiously awaiting to see you on the darkside.


See you out there

Wheel looks cleaner than mine, but I'll clean it anyway Smile I'll be buying some bearings this week and getting a tire very soon. Now it just needs to get warm enough to melt the roads, but it's looking like we won't see a high above 25 for the next week and tomorrow is supposed to be a high of 4 degrees.

Good thing the shop is heated Smile
