I’m amazed at how well MaxPro/XPro packages these things and how good a job R+L Carriers did getting it to me birthmark free. I too have the aftermarket shifter recommended by Mike Festiva. I also purchased an RK natural chain (120 links) and a 16 tooth countersprocket. Interestingly, the rear wheel bearings were well greased and the front wheel bearings were bone dry. Thus, I repacked them and then tightened the spokes. This weekend I’ll adjust the valves, change to Rotella T4, do a few heat cycles and an initial break-in, then I’ll probably balance the wheels.
