Nice pick on the Evo clutch! Definitely show us when you install it.

I spoke with bandit and they said what I'm describing is normal. I'll get it back together after work and she's off to the dyno tomorrow!

Well I lubed up th mainshaft and slid the comp/ clutch assembly back on and torqued everything down, put the pressure plate on and there's no play anymore... It weird but whatever I think she's good to go. I set the primary chain tension, rolled the chain around a few times and check multiple spots. It may be a little tight at the tightest spot but it's at about 5/8" upward movement in every other spot. Wish me luck boys tomorrow's the day!

Get some sleep tonight! Ask for a SAE sheet. Sometimes they give you a std sheet only. Full tank of fuel an tire pressure spot on. Good luck!

Also ask if they can do the pull in your final gear.

I had a thread over at HTT about what to ask/do/prep for a Dyno pull.

I'll look for that thread on htt. Muffler bearings are brand new and lubed, blinker fluid is clean and topped off and the tires are only flat on the bottom! There's no way I'm getting any sleep haha, I dont think I slept since I got the bottom end!

The tank is full, tires are good now and I got my phone and iPad. I'll be wheeling my bike into a trailer tomorrow for the first time since I've owned it but it's all good because it's suppose to rain anyway. I hope it's cleared up by the afternoon.

Bobber I will see if they will pull in 6th and I'll try and get SAE and STD
