Reworked the shock setup a little.
Swapped the shock's side to side that fixed some clearance issue's at the top
then made some diff. lower plate's and moved the bolt hole's a little and now have plenty
of clearance at both end's. Still need to make a new brake stay arm so just stuck that plate
in to mock it up.

Had to whip up a new chain guard since there ain't a lot of room now.

Messed with the Dyna some after work today playing with diff rpm setting's
for the shift and ign. kill With the two adjustable output's I'm using one to trigger the air shift
the other trigger's a relay that cut's power to the coil's as a way to kill the ign. on the shift.

I turned the shift down to 3500 to make it easier to test ride
and played around moving the kill rpm's up/dn a few hundred rpm's and also added more
rpm's between on and off rpm's and learn a little more about how to make this shit work
the way I want.

Then I got low on air in my refill tank and couldn't refill the bike tank so with not enough air for it to shift right
I put it up and had a beer. B) B)

Back story leading up to the relay deal.
So get to the track about 11:45 am. Pit spot I like under the big tree is open
so park and and get unloaded.
Get the genny and air comp. set up and then rode the bike to the tech booth
to turn in my card and then back to camp.

And waited and waited and waited finely got to make a pass at 3:45 pm.
Any way's go make an easy pass to get a feel of the bike do a soft launch
(1.82 60ft time)and run 80 mph for a shake down pass I wanted to see what raising the rear did
to the front at speed and it all felt good so go right back to make a hammer on it pass
get the light launch it bog's then come's alive and then shuts the F$%^ off at the 30ft.
and for the first time since I started this shit I pushed the bike back off the starting line.
