Rode to UNM in ABQ and back to Santa Fe today (120+ mi roundtrip). Bike rode fine. Thanks all for support and info.
Picked up a cotter pin at a dealer in ABQ, but it was way too thick. I split it, and used it until I got back to SMR Motorcycles in Santa Fe. The guy went right to a drawer and pulled out an appropriate pin. Wouldn't take money for it.
Bike is riding pretty well. I still get nervous over 70 mph on the interstate, so I ride at my own pace. Have discovered earplugs make the bike go faster! ;D Well, they let me drive faster.
The cable came undone from the tach. Screwed it back when I got home. Is LocTite or similar appropriate here?
Rodentrancher, let us know when your bike is back to running. Maybe I can see it some time after class, or my occasional flight shift at Med Flight.
