I'll tell you one thing... That vanity tag on the back of the bike cost $76. When I got the SMRT tag, it was $35. Pa has increased title fees, lien fee, there's a new BS county fee.... and now they gouge you for a vanity tag. Pricks.

So, the inner shoe was all but gone. The tech said I had about 3 more rides left.

Good thing the guys on the HD forum were such hammers about checking it. The cam run out is only .002" which is awesome for a 53k motor, and the lobe and cam journal look fine.

The guy that's doing the work is a forum member that does side work, and has the respect of the other members. When he offered his help for parts cost and 1/2 the dealer's labor rate, I jumped. At this rate, I may have it back next Weds! My seat is finally shipping this Friday. It's coming together.
