Gaahhh!!! Race Tech!

So I worked on my motorcycle Saturday with mixed results. The oil and filter change went smoothly. First hiccup: Then I broke out the spray can of engine degreaser that I bought from Cycle Gear. Popped off the top and lo and behold... it was lacking a spray nozzle! I wanted to clean up the underside of the engine and around the front sprocket. I did my best to get the caked on stuff off.
I then tackled the removal of the front forks. I placed the motorcycle lift under the bike, removed the front wheel and loosened the triple clamps. Breakdown of the forks was easy. Pretty basic suspension looking at the guts of them. Reason I'm upgrading the forks by modding the dampner rods and adding a Race Tech Gold Valve Emulators and Springs. Using an el cheapo Black and Decker drill/drill bits makes slow work of the dampner rod mod. Enough so that I was only able to do one side. I had to go out and get a decent drill bit specifically made for metal. Next I studied the placement of all the bits to include the new. Emulators: check, new spacers: too short! I mis-measured the needed amount, 270-275mm. Then the new springs: too big!!! The overall diameter of the springs were 40mm. I needed 33mm. Faaack!!! I bought the Race Tech bits back in September during a F650.com group buy. Didn't get around to tackling the install because I was still and crutches. Install ground to a halt. It being a weekend, I had to wait till Monday to call Race Tech to work out an exchange. I hoping to get the part by Friday so I can knock out the bike this Sunday and ride.
I'm really looking forward to checking out the performance of the mod. Posts from other folks on F650.com seem pretty positive.
