I've been hunting around, and I can't figure out exactly how to remove the class computer so I can do the E4 repair. On my 86 venture royale, the class is attached to a pivoting mount, so I can easily get to the plugs, but I can't get it out, I loosened the four screws at the back, but that doesn't seem to be all I need to do to get it out of the fariring. Need some experienced assistance please.

Ok - I won a Superbrace off e-bay about a month ago. Tried to install it and it would not go between the forks. So, I raised up the front tonight and loosened the pinch bolt and front axle. Still wouldn't fit. Loosened the lower fork tube clamps and same thing. Air pressure at 6 psi. Progressive springs in forks. It is a 2" thick early model brace. Can't get my calipers in to check the spacing. Don't think the forks have a problem. Anyone have experience with these? I think I will hand it off to Lowell and have him check it to a couple of his bikes. I tried to contact Superbrace and received very canned answers. I asked for the tolerance and measurements and got no answer. Next thing on the list: I retorqued the front axle to 75 ft. lbs. as indicated in the manual. Dang that was a lot tighter than when I took it apart!! I have noticed a very minor twitch in the front when starting and turning sharp at the same time. Maybe this was the problem. I will find out in the A.M. when I run to work. Retorqued pinch bolt and top tube bolts. Front tire feels ok-maybe a bit stiffer to turn. Say 3-5lbs. force needed to rotate the wheel. Thinking of pulling wheel and replacing bearings just for the heck of it. JB
