Not too shabby
I got the chance to take the bike out for a little ride this evening. I played with the clutch adjustment for just a minute on the center stand. It seemed okay there. As the bike warmed up a little it would clunk just a bit going into first gear. But, it shifts right into neutral and all the other gears fine. The handle pulls much easier now as well. Just a little fine tuning and I should have it.
The whole bike seems to be a little smoother now. I found as I was emptying my use oil pan that the spring that keeps the oil filter tight had fallen in the pan. So now I'll have to drain the bike down one more time so I can pull the filter and put the spring back in. It's not like me to only do things once.
The highway boards are an excellent addition to the bike. For my short frame they are perfect. I only wished that the shift lever and brake controls were up there as well. Rachel says that the passenger floor boards were a good buy.
Next I'll look to the brake cylinder.
