Installed the new shocks and springs last night!!! I was a little leery of how the black shocks and springs would look but after I got them on I am really happy with the look. My tank and sidecovers are a glossy black already so they all work together really well. The only hiccup was due to the larger diameter of the spring I had to cut a notch out of my chain guard to allow space for the spring. Not a big deal, I like playing with my angle grinder.
As for dealing with Dennis Kirk, I would do it again in a heartbeat. Customer service was great, and the parts were packed to a very high standard. My parts got here in the promised 7 business days, factor in that there is a Canada Post strike taking place which slows everything down a day or two.
Thanks again Tweakin, I thought I might miss the relay due to backordered springs but you bailed me out!!! Much appreciated. I'll buy you a beer if we ever end up in the same place in the future.
Now, on to my wife's bike, I got two weeks to have it ready to roll.
Thanks again to every one for their input and help. Nice to feel like part of the family........
