Funny how some folks quote vendors recommendations (that they agree

(when they disagree with them)....


FWIW, I'm going to try plain-Jane Ford ATF Type F initially. We'll see
how it works out.

I was also going to go with the E1 plates. I saw that they don't recommend synth oil. I put synth in with the OE clutch and have had 0 problems. Is the E1 made from different material and more susceptible to slipping?

Thanks for the input!


Sorry I wasn't specific, I really meant to do a google search.
wachuko's thread that I read is actually on the XLForum....

Rim tape looks good though.

Good luck on the reflector, lets see a picture when you're done.

Whats the full P/N on those bolts? Are they polished stainless?

thanks,

Hard to find any vendor with the SP versions, so I'll probably go
with AlloyBoltz.

I've eye'd those AlloyBoltz up more than once. I keep telling myself it's for when I run out of the "important stuff" to do.
