Problem solved... where's my sign? 
But that nut is still damn close to bottoming out on the threads.

yeah I'll be ok.. it's just very close. I'll add some Loctite when I do the final assembly. I need to throw it in the drill press and knock out the holes for the pins that came with the kit. Probably go buy some new bearings for the hubs as well. Cheap insurance.

Hey look.. they fit! I still need to drill out the holes for the studs and then transfer over the rotor and put in new bearings/seals. But it lines up. Hopefully we'll get some rain and I can spend some time out there and not die from heat stroke... get some things done.

Very sweet!!!!
If I wasn't in such a hurry to get out the shop and deal with my nephew, I would have posted pics of mine too! I was worried about the studs too just because of all of the crap on that other board. I hope to bring home my 'new born' soon!!! Should I rent one of those storks to warn the neighbors!!!

I was reading the thread on Pirate about the stud length. They still look a little long post install. Looks good anyways Sean

I agree they look a bit long. I still need to put a gasket in there.. but thats pretty thin.

Its the best thing since sliced bread! Serious... it makes climbing a piece of cake. No fiddling around wishing you had 3 feet to control brake, clutch and gas.

Not the way the school (or me and all my family members) would like it. No one in CA can pick him up from school at this time. I am only authorized to drop him off. WTF? Hopefully we can get it sorted out in the family court while he is here.
Thanks for the encouragement. I just don't get parents that think their kids are tools to get back at other people!

Awesome. I was thinking about this the other day when I was out trying to do all of those things. Can you use the foot and/or hand throttle? depending on the situation?

Yep, there are two separate throttle cables.

The hand throttle is a very necessary and easy mod. I love mine so far. Tearflex has a pretty cheap kit sold at Summit racing for about 30 bucks if you dont want to piece a kit together.

Mine is more of a motorcycle brake lever attached to the shifter. It has great control of the motor.
