[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 945067, member: 3828"] Tony, It looks like you're on the right track for the parts. Not sure why you'd want the adjustable links as the stock ones should work out for you fine, but to each his own. I'm replying only to encourage you to NOT bring your bike to any bike shop for your annual state safety inspection. Instead, you want to find a local auto garage type inspection station that also does motorcycles. The reason being that a bike shop is very likely to be overly picky about your bike inspection in order to drum up some new service business. No joke. I had one local dealership fail a rear tire even though it still had legal tread depth. But once they fail it and record the failure into the online inspection system, there is no real recourse other than to replace the tire. Most auto repair places have plenty of car stuff to keep them busy so they will be far more casual with the once over before slapping a sticker on there. If you need a recommendation for such a place near ManchVegas that will take a ride-in without an appointment (I now use them all the time) send me a PM. [/QUOTE]
