[QUOTE="DJB, post: 939084, member: 10544"] First of all Bust behave around the Newbe. You live in California. Russell Day Long Saddles is in California. Goto the website, call them an talk to them. I believe you can make an appointment to bring in the bike and they will modify it for you that day. Takes about 4 or 5 hours I think. So if they are not far away you could go first thing in the AM and be home for dinner with a great ride. I agree with the idea that the seat is first and the links are last. Shortening the side stand needs to be done by someone that has a machine shop and can do math. It is not just remove and inch from everything because of the angle and you want to keep that angles the same. You also need the little pad on the bottom so you do not sink in the dirt or pavement. So now you need a math guy with a welder. By the way you are welding a cast piece of aluminum. That means that if your welder is not really good at what he does he will leave it appearing ok and yet it could be not worth a sh**. And yes please PM MEM. You will have a great time just talking to her. ;) [/QUOTE]
