Mix and match after market this and that toss it all in . Why I would never buy a used bike. Unless I knew the bike as well as my own.

Not sure what you're saying here. Putting a full fuel Moto kit into a basically stock bike. Being as I'm not the one that owns the bike I accidentally called it a classic instead of a limited. I'm not seeing where you get mixed and match parts from.

Your OP read like it was your bike, so that had me a little confused. Maybe FM was confused as I was. Nevertheless, they're taking care of you, which is what I've come to expect from FM.

Yeah it's hard to say. I do a lot of my friends bikes. I'm the one stupid enough to buy all the tools lol. I've gotten some crap on here for asking a question or for advice on someone else's bike so I tend to leave that part out now.
