No problem.   waytogo

Good write up.  waytogo I can't do one for the life of me,...I've tried.  I keep forgetting to take pictures along the way, and I always end up with just two pictures; one before, and one after.  Undecided

For older bikes you omitted step 5B: "realize you forgot to put the speedo thingie on the wheel, so remove wheel and restart."

Nice job, as always. If the lawyer thing doesn't work out you can work for the Haynes Manual people.  waytogo

Oh, and when we're drinkin' sometime, I'll tell you about the time I forgot to pump the brakes, hopped on the bike and backed down my driveway, doing my best Fred Flintstone braking maneuver.  Shocked Roll Eyes

or in my case ... make sure the speedo thingy doesn't spin around the axle and break while removing the wheel ... bang head

Also make sure that the spedo thingy isn't caught in a bind lest you look down sometime wondering how fast your going and the clock says zero.
Don't ask how I know.
