I put the bike in the stand and got it up to where it was easy to see things. A bunch of little things added up to a pain in the butt. First of all, I found out the workshop manual I purchased back in Dec is for the 05>07. I call the seller today and no beating around the bush. he will have the correct one in the mail tomorrow. it is the same one the dealers use. The bar risers (2inch) are a bit too much for this cable. Oil in the cable helped a lot, and I will not be building up my forearms using the clutch. I did not know about the alignment marks until one of the folks posted a lot of pictures. Then upon the stand, I could see the small indent on the spline gear. I put a MC jack under the bike and got the rear wheel off the table. Then I did a shifting test. Seems to work OK. One of the biggest help was this forum. To say the least, I was frustrated. During periods my wife stays away from the shop, because ( start with Naval terms not fit for the church. In short thanks a lot. The new workshop manual will help out a lot.
