Sanebiker says;"Use the tools that came with your bike"
I'm still freaking out on this one. Do you mean to tell me that HD gives you a tool kit on newer bikes? I thought only Honda did that. My wifes Honda Shadow can be rebuilt from the ground up with the tools that came with her bike.
Sad, they need to head south where they would be appreciated a little more.
I hear ya on that, too. The US wanted to give them Bronze Stars and our side wanted to give them grief. Want more? We don't have an equivalent to your Purple Heart up here.[:@]

Very funny. The head job did in facttake place - in a well-lit garage, and in front of a witness. Indeed, the job went surprising well. The only fiddly part of it was getting in behind the rad to access the timing belt pulley. Having a drop light made that easy to do.
Even if I wanted to use the Sawzall, the condo ***** won't let me plug it in anyway. For me to work down there, I have to have one eye on my work, one over my shoulder to look out for the condo ***** and a third eyeball out to watch for the geriatric drivers so they won't run me down. (Most of the people who live here are older than air.) Add to that a parking stall that's barely wider than the bike and lighting low enough to grow mushrooms and, well, you get the picture.
