Well, I took the bike out for a ride for the first time.

Cooter you were right, I did exactly as I wanted. BUT, thanks to you all I did have the opinions to help my research and make a (what I think) is an informed decision. 34, I took your hammer performance info and did the heat cycle as they suggested. After that initial round, I took Barretts advice on seating the rings in his break in post.

You all have been a big help.

I thought I'd show you the back story of this project:

A while back the bike and I were involved in a rather high speed low side.

So I left the bike be for a while and I got the itch again. Here's what it looks like today:

The observant eye will see that it is a lightning with a fire bolt tail.

So anyway, thanks everyone and I'm back on the road.
