Still paying my bike off. Plus we would have to pay to transfer the title and waist half a day waiting in line to do it.

Already have them torn apart, its not like it was much work. Took maybe 1 1/2 hours to pull apart.

S for the win!!! I almost bought the sf model on our show room floor. The blue is so sexy! Even the rims are blue. BUT the S is more capable. I love bein able to come home from work and head down the river without havin to worry about bein pulled over.

Good luck on the swap guys. Hopefully everything goes smoothly.

As an aside, this is why i ended up with the S model. Its easier to put street tires on an S than put knobbies on an SF.

All in all not a bad deal. Things went together rather easy. Just hope I tightened everything back down. Now to clean up all the tools and other stuff scattered all over the garage.

I like this set up a lot better. I have lowering links on which brings it down 3/4" in the rear and have push the forks up 3/4". I'm 5'6" and can now put both feet on the ground. Mind you it's just the ***** of my feet but way better than the one foot tip toe method of the S set up. I have owned many big bikes since I've been riding and I have to say around town this is the most fun bike I have every owned.
