HAHA!! 3 hours my struts are not getting compressed until tomorrow when my tires get mounted. Should have the rear finished shortly and start the front after that.

I helped my friend install my FL II. In the time it took me to remove the air box and battery tray, he had the rear done and was waiting on me to get out of his way to finish the front.
The whole install was 45 mins....it was crazy.

Now for the update!!! the front is full assembled and on the ground. It was a little tricky getting the forks reconnected to the lower arms no big deal though. Just ran into a little trouble on the rear drums. Had to run out and get new hardware. should be done soon and back on the road. Will update with pictures soon.

thanks to everyone for your input, and help.
