finally got it in... a couple of pics
before



and

after



Pretty straightforward although it required a little shimming and filing (thanks Xbimmer!) to keep the third 'tang' from bottoming out.

a couple of other pics:

Ha! SmartLevel; I used to work for the electronics engineering dept that made those until the company decided to move to Oklahoma City. I was quality control, repair, applications development, Cad drawing person and many other hats. Miss that company!

So dude, it was sitting at a 12deg angle before and is now at 16deg? Is it really obvious that the bike is now tilted more than it was prior? I'm wondering if that increases the load on the side stand bolts much. Please keep us informed on how this works out over the long haul.
