$3500 seems a bit much. that, and $860 is a lot for the clutch. FYI, a Spec stage 1 is about $500.

$520 is awful high for an OEM IMS bearing, too. should be more like $250. the LN bearing is over $500, but it's quite different from the factory version.

18 hours of labor is crazy. i could do all of this in under 8hrs taking my sweet ass time with NO helpers and no air.

the lager deckel is located just below the flux capacitor & right next to the headlight fluid reservoir.

as for the alignment? a regular shop can do it fine. just make sure you get a print-out of the before & after. 'within spec' is not good enough; you want things to match farily well from side to side. FYI, i found a place with the newest hunter machine that charges me $60 for all 4 corners. it takes them 30min and they nail it every time.

as for the indy shop? show him the instructions on the LN site. if he won't do it, ask him if he'll let you do it while the transmission is off. it's worthwhile insurance IMO.
