Ok...so after reading many arguments as of late I just needed to post a celebration.
Yea, I am a newbie, yea, I've probably annoyed the experts by asking questions (unintentionally) that have been asked before, and Yea...I haven't helped many other members out because I don't jack s#*t about engines (I'll build you a house, but I don't know motors)....but today it all paid off. I listened to all of you, read your postings, and applied it all and today my friends...today, I went for my first ride on my bike since I acquired it 9 months ago. It was exhilerating, a blast, a kick in the pants. I went 60mph up some moderate twistys, I went 100 for a stretch, I went 0-80 in...in...hell I don't know I was too busy hangin' on to check my friggin watch

Thank you all for knowing what you know and sharing it. Now back to the tool shed to make sure can do it again tomorrow.
