Thanks guys. Pulley and rotors from ride wright finally came in so I guess I'll take it back apart one day this week and put those on.
Mike... I wish I could put a tank lift on it but it won't work with the HHI trees and I am loving the jockey. That **** is some kind of fun! I've only stalled it once so far. Def gonna be hard to break a 30 year habit of grabbing a clutch lever.

Saving up every penny I can get my hands on to get a heartland kit. It really sucks having a ss and not being able to slam it down.

Trees actually hit the tank. They barely miss it with no lift at all.

Are your trees mid glide or wide glide?

Are the bitchinseats wide glide trees the same as the hhi ones? I didn't know if perhaps Rich was just remarketing HHI's trees as his. Anyone know?

The original Bitchin trees (mine) were made for him by Perse (stamped on my trees), but the guy retired so Rich had to outsource them to someone else.
