Does anyone know where I can get a Wiseco 904 Big Bore kit installed in the SF Bay Area? Also, any ideas on good machine shops to put the sleeves in and do the over sized valve job? Thanks.

I could, but I am worried I would mess something up. I have Dinqua's instructions, but it seems like a whole lot of careful work.

I just tore mine down for the first time, took about 6 hours to get it apart and nothing too scary. I'll be putting it back together next weekend.

It has been great fun, and I only 'got religion' once.

Do it, its not that bad when you get in there, you are only tearing the top end down, and you will save a c r a p load in labor, that makes it worth it alone in my book. I can only afford my labor rates, which are way cheap! I do think most Bonneville riders dont work on their bikes, atleast here in ABQ, cause whenever I tell the dealer I am going to do it myself they look at me kinda shocked!
