MAKE sure the BIKE is STABLE..Strapped down if possible.. I know basic but we sometimes forget the simple stuff.. I KNOW LOL.... ALSO if your remove the shocks fom the swing arm drop the pressure to 0..easier....or pull the right exhaust pipe,,,,If you can and it hasnt been done grease the swing arm bushing..all the info is on Gadgets site.... ALSO CHECK the TIRE Rotation arrow....and check the bearings...... MINE was VERY easy, I dropped it off at my Wrenchs place and picked it up the next day :).EASY LOL..Rich

Thanks, rich I forgot the swing arm. I might as well do it all while, I got it took apart. No need to fiddle around. I'll do the safety thing first, make sure the things tied down before I spin the wrenches.
