As long as all the loose and protruding chunks are gone, the remainder won't make any functional difference.

[quote="Major Softie"][quote= When was the last time you had a bunch of ignorant squids passing you on the right and over the double yellow line - on Harleys? If someone is hogging the left part of the lane and oblivious to my presence behind him because he does not use his mirrors, I wil...

That's what they did with the Paralever. On ALL Paralever bikes, it is normal to see the ring of grease that was flung out of the OE nipple-less joints onto the inner swingarm walls.

[quote="Chuey"][quote=" So here goes...........gspd..............it's clear that you don't ride that bike of yours. Very pretty, but once again, we've never seen a picture of you riding (or flipping) it. You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool Chuey none ...

Plugs and compression A-OK.

Still waiting for the retainer. I was going to replace it at my next filter change anyway. I don't t...

Damn. Fek. Horror indeed, GS. I bet you didn't know where to put your face. I attach a steaming mound of sympathy from Oz. ps: please update final figure in thread header after repair. Thank you for the steaming lump. I know a con rod knock when I hear it. Repairs should be in the $100 to $2000 ran...

I like!
Is that the same bike as before???!!!

I thought I would be rolling it over to (4)00000kms this weekend. it ran perfectly this morning on the way to the Trenton rally, only 420kms... ...BUT, on the way back it developed a con rod knock. I limped it home (350kms) at 100-110 km/h while my loyal buddies continued on their merry 150-160 km/h...

I wanna see this sucker!
