only problems have been took care of with the help of yall and the good suggestion on the forum. wrapped the header - and turn up my radio for the riding noise, which i only noticed when i was riding paved roads at high speeds. camo viking is running strong and i have been riding fast and hard. after every ride i clean it up and remove my wheels and spray everything with hilco cleaner and lube. (after every ride) i mean the 100 mile weekend rides with heavy mud and dust. keep posting yall got good ideas. later
