Hi Ken,

Thanks for making me aware of that issue...I'll certainly check that.
Not tonight, though...the inlaws are in town until Friday morning
spoiling baby Darby! I take it that you are running 13.25" shocks, then?

Did you spin the rear tire with your 13.25" piece of flat iron in place?
Its
possible to put the swing arm at such an angle that the u-joint rubs the

inside wall of the swing arm. It should not be a problem when the bike
is weighted
but still something you need to be aware of. Mine will sometimes rub
when
rolling it around un-weighted.
