OK, I am going to ask a lot at once, so take it easy on me!
First, I am staring in semi-despair at my track body work (Armour bodies, if that matters) and the bike. Any hints on mounting it? My biggest question is wtf to do with the places where the stock body work has a pressure fit stud. What do I do to mount the aftermarket stuff to those places? Other than measure 3 times, drill once, and use patience, anything else I should know?
Secondly, I just ordered an Ohlins rear shock. One day at the track on my bike/barcalounger convinced me that stock suspension had to go. Budget didnt include a kit for the front yet, but the rear is gone, and so is the damper. So how hard is it to mount the rear? Just how much do I need to pull apart to get at it? Any tricks I should know that will make it extraordinarily easy?
In the grand scheme of things I am not too worried, I am armed with a set of tools, a shop manual, and 2 weeks until the next track day, but any help or guidance you could give would be hugely appreciated...
I am editing because I already forgot: the front fender only really comes off when the front tire does, right? And what do I do with the electrical sensor after the kickstand comes off? Help me o wise one, please!
