There's something I had not thought of. I'm starting to talk to a lot of other Harley riders and getting good info on the favored independent shops.

That makes sense. I live in a hot climate in the desert, actually had my twin-cool radiator fan come one today. Blew out of the side like a hair drier. When I got back from the ride today, the bike was hot and at idle the neutral rattle was talking to me. Still not as bad as it was with the Syn3.

I figure if it could help a 3rd member live in a 2,300 lb 1,700 hp dragster doing sub 1 sec 60' times. It should help the little 5 or 6 speed on the lightly powered HD.
