"Disclaimer":
I just want to make it
very clear
that my posts are not the "Do it my way or it's wrong" type of posts. These are
just things that I do or have done in the process of working on these bikes (the
one about the kicker is an example). I'm just hoping that some of these will be
useful - if we can prevent someone from damaging a part, or make his work easier
or less frustrating as he works on his triple, then we've been successful. I
don't want anybody thinking I "just came up" with these ('cause I don't work
THAT fast). A lot of them were sent out by PM to individuals who had inquired
over the last few years.
