I did end up finding a old post that stated there is a tab on the left hand side of the rear shock w/ a dot punched into it. It looks like I'm in postion #2 w/ a rear sag of 1 3/8". I'm not sure if thats good or bad for rear sag or not.

as soon as I get a few pics of my old Vance & Hines slip-on exhaust I'll tose it up on the forums to see if anyone want to buy it.

Do the frame sliders. It is close on the bottom of the fairing, but it is worth it. I took my time and used a drill press. Worked perfectly.

Thx Spicy.

I do have access to a drill press F3 but I'm still going to think about it. I sure would hate to mess up and hate myself later.

On a side note maybe someone can help me out w/ my HID Hi/Low
function. I currently have everything wired up and my low beam works great. When I try to turn on my high beam nothing happens, it just stays on low beam and my high beam indicator comes on in the dash board. On the install guide it states to "Now connect the High/Low function. Simple plug the male end (plug from the HID bulb) into the female end (plug from the hi/low harness)." The male end they refer to is two #16 awg wires one black and the other white. I'm sure the high beam isn't working because those two wires aren't hook up. Heres a link to the kit I have http://www.ddmtuning.com/Products/DD...rcycle-HID-Kit. If anyone has a idea where to hook up that black and white wire(#16 awg) that would be tight.

I did the frame sliders yesterday will it was raining and I must say it was easy as heck.

My next project is to change my fork oil and front tire. I was wondering if its possible to use my new frame sliders to hold my bike up w/ some jack stands? I don't have the cash atm with it being summer and no income coming in so I got pinch pennies till school starts up again. So I can't go out to buy new stands and my garage is dry walled so I can't use the rafters.
