Hoot,

Here are your fork springs, waiting on the Fork oil and I will send the rest of the fork oil I have. That should be enough fluid for you, if not, add some of what you have to finish the job.

Also included is Roberts New T-Bag Windshield Bag and his new Taller National Cycle Wave shield. The girls noted the thickness of this shield they are not accustomed to seeing.

Wow...
And to our earlier conversation, I'd like the dim's if you can provide them (via PM)
And a Scala too! How did you know what I wanted for Christmas! (just joking!)

Just wanted everyone to know that I did install my new fork seals and Progressive springs yesterday...

Thank You to Greg and Lawrence for their help when I contacted them in a Panic!!!

I guess all's well that ends well..

So have you had a chance to ride it much?  How do you like the new feel?

I replaced the starter switch on my blue bike today.  Too cold to ride, at least for fun, and I don't ride for any other reason... 

The entire assembly had to be replaced, which meant loosening the throttle cables, stuffing the connector through the hole in the back of the headlight housing, etc.  Took awhile, but it now works correctly.

Hoot, just glad to be able to be of some help.

I KNOW you will like those progressive springs.  They are on my top must perform mods for a 3rd gen Magna.

Keep the old one... It probably just needs a good cleaning...
