Default Upgrade Next Week

I stopped into the local indy shop today to see if they would be cheaper than the dealer to get my pressing work done for the late swingarm and the alignment. (there are just some tools I dont have)

Well the economy is crappy and he gave me a bid to do the whole job of the swingarm upgrade and alignment for $50 more than the dealer quoted me for just the pressing of the bearing/bushings and do the drivetrain alignment.

Being a slight bit lazy, and knowing that it would take me a couple of days to do the job, laying on the garage floor using my little bike jack. I will be dropping Ester off the middle of next week and stimulating my local economy.
