I'm having a hard time removing the hump off the frame for the front bags. You guys have any suggestions or tips? Im tring to remove it with a cut-off wheel, anyone use anything better besides a plasma cutter?

he** . . . plasma cutter that would be great. I find myself using cutoff wheels, patience, another cutoff wheel, bandaids, more patience, and then another wheel. Took me about three 1/4" wheels. I took the upper stops off first, then sectioned the horn & ground everything smooth with a grinding disc, took about 2 hours, giv er take. The trick I found is section everything in small peices and use a lil patience and youll get right thru it . . .

Do you have access to an oxy/ acetylene torch? If not you need to buy one, it'll pay for itself in a very short time and you'll be able to keep all your digits minus a burn or two.
