Thanks for all the tips guys. Easy. In fact, the entire conversion went smooth except for dialing in the indexing, but I've got it 90-95% there.
It makes for a fast runabout, and beats all my vintage machines in terms of feel and responsiveness. The frame is more compact than I'm used to but I'm sure that (plus the tires and the weight) contributes to the zippiness it has.
