    I had to make a flywheel holder out of some steel rod I got at the local hardware store. It actually worked. I had bought a flywheel puller, so that went pretty easy. Replaced the condenser, and rode around for 45 minutes or so. She ran fine, so I think I got it. Thanks for all the advice. I really appreciate it. image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg

    Cautiously optimistic!
    Now do 2 things:
    > Re-torque the flywheel nut to 50 lbs.
    > Enter the Vintage enduro at McKee's Sky Ranch WV on 7/29...either of those bikes are PERFECT for it!

    Thanks. And thanks for the reminder on retorquing. I can't make the enduro, but if anybody in the Annapolis/DC area wants to ride somewhere, I'm in
