If you are doing it give yourself a coupla days (more likely a day and a half)
If you are having a shop do it schedule a much lighter wallet.

Either take it out and install the new one yourself or let the shop do it all.
Reason is that if you take it apart then you have to carry all the loose parts (without loosing any) to the shop. Not sure you would be thanked for handing them a box full of parts for them to sort out.

Both parents are schhol teachers, i am also a qualified school teacher, but I run a pub instead.lots of friends tat are pretty handy with tools, but they are also pretty unreliable for this, as they all have young families and small businesses of their own.

Good one guys.....ride safe, and dont stick the long one in the wrong one.....
