[ST] Incredible Growing Tank



Fred, it's not simply a matter of moving the eccentrics.  The tank simply won't go back far enough to line up the front mounting hole ie: hitting against the frame with the pump plate protrusion.

>The Ohlins puts additional stresses on the frame thus making the tank 
harder to fit. ;-)

What is really scary, it that for the second time I've actually dropped the bike.  This time in a complete fit of "lame-brain-edness" I figured I'd roll the bike outside for a hose down with the shock out.  DOH!  The bike came off the center stand with a thump.  So I'm concerned that I've actually tweeked the frame.  I WAS certain that there was no way this could happen, it landed pretty gently (I realized what I'd done the second AFTER I'd done it and kind of caught it on the way down) but now I'm not so sure.  I think I'm going to get it "computrack-ed" just in case.
