PUC you ol' mile buster, how are you ? Long time no chat.

Thank you for the input...... All I want is both...lol... not looking at any get rich quick scheme and in the Get rid of the "stuff" and put some money into my bike fund for future tires, maintenance etc. I would rather all this go on some bikes to keep them all going, I also have $$ invested in rescuing these bikes from the scrap yards. Again, the $$ goes into my bike. Thanks for the insight .. Also I have 2 full sets of matching keys/ bag locks/gas cap/ignition .. Again looking for a fair price ... FYI.. I have "given away" more part then ever sold off of these bikes only asking for actual shipping costs ( which most have covered, some didn't)

MK1 or MK2? The MK1 makes short work of removing the rear tire compared to the MK2. I wouldn't say either is dificult but there is a good bit of prep work to get to actually removing the wheel. Follow the service manual and you will have no problems. There are some short cuts that work, but I would advise going by the book the first time around. One good short cut, if you pay close attention and do it safely, allows you to remove both wheels from the centerstand with no lift. Set up on the center stand, then use a ratchet strap from the center stand to the front frame to secure the center stand in the forward position. use a small bottle jack under the front cross member to lift the front end and remove the front wheel by the book. Let the bottle jack down, pull the front end down and secure it with a tied down strap. Remove rear wheel by the book. It's critical to do this on a solid, flat surface free of debris. Do not attempt this method on grass or a gravel driveway.

They definitely have the power. My son loves mine and you know how the young ones are on power and speed. I am going to try the Darkside in a short while since my tire will soon need replacing. The only PIA on these are the oil changes.. 3 ..count them 3 oil plugs and two are are real pain to change ..

That would be bad ass brother. I’ll be leaving Vegas Sunday morning on the 2nd, I’ll make a tentative route when I look at a map tonight.
