OK..........Is it me or have I been on 2 strokes too long? Getting to know my 09 TE310. Pulling suspension to send out and clutch setup for auto clutch. Forks off and out in no time. No hasles nor surprises. Rear shock.........oh boy. bottom bolt put on by Luka Bratzi at the factory. tight fit in there too. Ended up removing 1 side of linkage wishbone to get at it. Then removing rear subframe and silencer was not fun. This thing was set in with tighter tolerances than a darn Luger pistol! All the wires and such too. Clutch came out like a snap though...........although with the auto decomp.......had to get the air gun really singing before hub 27mm spun off. Is it me? Is the bike just giving me the "Hey.I'm-ah new-ah over here-ah". "Tight-ah like-ah virgin......no?" I am realy impressed with the bike though...don't get me wrong...just sems like the 2 strokes were so much easier, and I am talikng frame/chasis stuff here...........nothing engine related. Did notice something funny though.........mechanic who assembled my bike wrote with a marker on the front axle "Hey Joe...Good luck" on it...........pretty cool. Finally, is the dash/speedo and the key setup all an integral unit or seperate? Have not made it that far yet.
