Hello,

Just wanted to take a moment to thank
- mcoomer
- DeafLamb
- Bill Kapaun
- operator
- HillRider
- Retro Grouch
- BCRider
- FLYcrash
- rickowensis
- LarDasse74
for your help.

After a delay in getting the parts and some vacation time away from home, I finally got my bike working again. I followed your suggestions and I'm convinced my bike now rides better than before the FH body broke!

Cheers!

You are most welcome, wodcommuter. Out of curiosity, which service procedures did you do, and which parts got replaced?

I always love it when the OP gives some sort of conclusion and shows some gratitude after the troubleshooting. Too many people here seem to disappear the moment they get the information they want...

I second that sentiment. And you're welcome wodcommuter.
