Thanks swordy. I appreciate everyone's encouragement.

I'm only a month into this but I feel like I'm not making any...or at least not enough progress. And the more I get into this the more I end up disassembling because, well, I've gone this far with it I might as well do <this, that or the other> while I've got it all torn down. What's a little more time and another few bucks gonna hurt? I took a perfectly fine and functioning Nightster and almost completely disassembled it. And I'm not a mechanic, machinist or fabricator. Some days I wonder if it will ever run again.

So it's nice to know you gize are out there following along and siliently cheering me on. Makes me feel like I'm actually not crazy. Thanks.

Hell no Ergo, THIS is the FUN part...and all that work WILL pay off. You're just peeking behind the curtain...all the mystery will soon be gone. Good or bad.
