It is time...

BTW @Mellow , I don't think that's a Bobber. A Sport Cruiser. Then again, maybe it is a Bobber.

Yup, it isn't but that's all I could come up with... I'm sure you'll like it.

Also note to observe the chain on the top when checking slack on the bottom. The top shouldn't move (straighten up) when checking the bottom slack, measurement should be taken just before the top starts to lift.

Wouldn't that allow twice the total slack?

Good question. Did you find the recommendation was accurate or not?

I don't know, because I have never checked afterward.

I don't check my chain often enough.....I guess I'm a slacker!!?? Russ.

Just so you don't yank on MY chain...

So in reading this it seems like you’re keeping the AK- I agree as it’s nice to have variety in what you ride. Sometimes, you just want to twist and go, and other times, ride a more traditional bike. Enjoy it! I had the Silverwing out yesterday- not as fast as the ST’s , but a nice diversion (~ 130 miles round trip yesterday). Next time I’m riding it’ll be the 2000 ST.

Actually I am considering selling the AK. I have a really hard time deciding between 2 choices like that.
