      Did you know that while you had the cams off would have been the PERFECT time to inventory your shims (if you hadn't already done them previously)?

        Pretty sure I remember a thread where he's done that not so long ago Steve, so I believe you can rest easy on that one

              She's ok!

              Thanks for the shim reminder, but I did check them in March, but checked everything again before putting cover back on. All still in spec. right the way I left them in March. Got everything back on and cam chain tensior set and the bike is running well and starting easily! Wife hasn't had a chance to take it out for a ride, hopefully tomorrow. Again I can't thank everyone enough for everything, all the great advise and helping me not loose my mind. I am a little proud I was able to do all I did for the first time and do it right. terrylee
