Thank YOU for all the help (the triple, the seals, the valving stacks, the oil specs). Your help really made this possible!

Greatly appreciated Jamie, you're a true gent!

I tried it once before and my dyno guy was unable to get it to run properly. I hope that perhaps the HRC jet kit may enable me to clear that hurdle next time.....
If your jet kit didn't come with base line settings let me know and I'll shoot you the "No Air Filter - Ram Air" base settings..... though there is a reason you got all those main jets with the kit......

Thanks Mike I think I will just the thing for a while first, lol (though send them to me if you have them; may have them in the notes that came with my kit.... not sure.....)

Hope all is well with you

Well, one day shy of month wait later, I finally got the steering damper clamp I had ordered on eBay from one of our entrepreneur friends in China.... So, I finally got to mount up the Ohlins this PM. That's another OCMD task ticked off.....

Having put over 1000 km (600 miles) on the bike without a damper, I can't say I ever really missed it. However, as I have it, it's paid for, may as well install it......

cheers
