[QUOTE="Ari Rankum, post: 446977, member: 1861"] Excellent, excellent, excellent!! I may be able to provide the "what if" story for you at NAFO, especially if I leave by bike and arrive by plane. *MY* second gear issue has been met with a lot less intestinal fortitude. After failing to get the dealer to even agree there's an issue, and after "firing" them as my dealer after another couple issues, my second gear has degraded to the point of almost being worthless. I've neither found another dealer, nor ponied up (heh) and ordered the parts myself. Nonetheless, this is the bike that will be leaving Baltimore en route to NAFO. I was very interested in your observations about the design changes to the dogs, by the way. The fact that they did this and that there is documentation of at least one AE developing this same problem suggests to me that there is a design issue. Once again, really excellent job on the re-build. Well done. [/QUOTE]
