The rear was not hard really. You definetly need a breaker bar. makes it easier. I turned the axle nut a hair to the right and then loosened right up. It made it nice that my neighbor was able to run over and help hold the wheel steady while I pulled the spacers and the brake caliper bracket. I took alot of digital pics as I was pulling it apart and hope i rememmber how it goes back together!!
The co I work for has a Powder Coat shop down south and I'm getting Gloss Black and clear coat for FREE. I got other small stuff done there and will be sending more later. I welded the plate holes last month and had the rear fender painted here at my shop and just got it back on.

These guys at work thought that I would get mad but when i hobbled around the corner i just busted out laughing.
The messed up part is that the lady who sideswiped me (on the phone) tried to file a claim on my insurance. Beeotch.

i will post some pics of the Bike after I get the parts put back on should be wednesday. I Hope.
