Uncle Jesse, its been a couple of years but I try to remember things about folks I meet and if memory serves, when I shook your hand it was like and island sized bear paw. It is a tight fit in there without a Hitch Doc set up. Feeling your pain.
I finished up dropped the wheel put in new bulb greased spines on differential reinstalled and put on new brake pads two hours not too bad for a old Fart like me
you know I had looked at that and was not sure how much the swingarm would drop I figured I would get some maintenance done while this was all happening I will drop the shocks next time
Being new on here I don't want to seem a smart-arse, but I carry an ordinary bicycle clip-on rear light,& keep it in the saddle bag.
Takes up no space & is a bit of emergency back-up--keeps the cops from bookin' you..
(also) over here we get mist & fog, & an extra light is handy then too.
I have standard set-up bike so can get at the bulb o.k.----BUT---
How many of us carry a spare set of bulbs anyway???
