Angry Where are all the Install Threads?

I just wanted to know why we have tons of "Before" and tons of "After" but so few of "During"??

I had to go about 3 1/2 years ago to find a good install thread on the Andrews 30T mod.

I cannot even remember any recent Dyna cam install threads, seems I have to go hang out on the bagger forums to find a couple.

I use the search feature and usually I can find some decent install threads but they are few and far between.

I like to see pics of everything being torn down, tools in actions, with the OP telling us why he went the way he did, where he got the tools, how he saved $$, what he messed up, etc etc.

I see a lot of bikes that have had some great mods, so I know they are being done constantly - just asking folks to show us HOW you did it not just THAT you did it. I am guilty too - should have done a True Track thread but I got lazy and skipped it - don't think I have ever seen a good True Track install mod.

What do yall think, am I the only one thinking this?

Some of the common good ones that are around, if there are any, should be stickied or be put into a DIY subsection of sorts.

I don't know where they are at, but throw up a link to the 30T install thread!

I am doing a hard bag install. Have a thread that I update as I update my progression. It's note for everyone, put it is a step-by-step and not a "I had an idea and now its done". Total spent on everything to date is maybe $600.
