Seth;

No I didn't even think of it! I was so happy I could see the coolant instead of
the black residue in the reservoir...great idea though.

The MC shop where I purchased parts recommended 10w fork oil so I went with
that. Also,progressive said their fork spring was drop in with no spacers
required on the PC. My front forks are right to the top of the triple tree (I
think that what it is called) I am finding the front suspension OK but the rear
seems too soft. It is set at #2 setting on 3 year old oem shocks.

Also, when everything was back together, I had to replace a few light bulbs.
Both rear turn signal bulbs, 2 dash lights and the headlight bulb.

The tupperware only rattles just off idle briefly...when I take off.
