I have a new pony in the stable........long drive to KC and back in one day.  Does driving over 1,000 in a day count as an Iron Butt event?  Let me tell you I have NO desire to do it on a bike under 24 hours after yesterday.

The bike is now in it's rightful home and I need your help.  The previous owner put some clip-on handle bars and removed the stockers which I'd like to change BUT I have never wrenched on a Duc.  If you have the heart and time would you be willing to help?  I will buy beer, food or any type of cigar/cigs you need to bribe you.....any takers?  [moto]

The bike will be for the girlfriend and me too of course and maybe, just maybe a track bike.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Cool, man congrat's on the bike...and with chopped cans.  [thumbsup] [moto] [thumbsup]

I'm sure someone here has wrenching experience with clip-ons.

Thanks.  I'm in no rush to do it today or this weekend.  Want to ride it a bit and maybe bring it to Hard 8 Sunday for some "critique."

Let me know when you have some time.

The only mob warning you shall receive will be the glowing of torches and the rhythm of marching feet  ;D [beer]

I'm in.  My skills are:

Drinking diet Pepsi

Eating beef jerky

holding tools

pointing out people's mistakes

laughing

looking good (well, actually I'm still working on that so...)

BTW, if you want the option of tracking the bike, clip ons are a good thing to have.  Mine make the bike feel much better and are not uncomfortable.  See you at the Hard 8.  The bike looks great as it is.
