I did order a new clutch lever and a matching brake lever. Hmmm... I wonder why.

I bought the silver ones off bikebandit. I just didn't trust the ones on flebay, after I got back and saw them here on the computer.

Good stuff Doug man, today , in light of Hawkwinds recent chain woes I decided to
go through my chain link by link .......... no issues ........... washed the chain in Kero
took it out and warmed it up good then lubed it up and adjusted her .... as it needed
a bit of slack taken out of it .... a bit sloppy she was after events of last week

the pipe i left silver for now, but i might not even run without it for a little bit until i get the bike running. it will be loud, but it will allow me to set up the bike so it runs a little rich with the pipe on it and correctly without it since ill probably run without it when i go to the track. more power!
