Not just yet. The shop had to order an adapter to mount the splined wheels to their spin balancer. He said it would be in in a week or so, and I am to go back and get them done.
They did a great job mounting the tires and replacing the tubes.
They also had a look at my rear belt as it's been squealing. Tension looked fine. Drive pulley was in good shape. They suggested using a belt dressing (stick form sort of like wax) on just the sides of the belts. They advised against the spray as it attracts dirt and wears the pulley. They didn't remember the brand, so I'm searching for it now.
The guy's name is Bill (bill@ironhorsemotorcompany.com). They are an authorized S&S shop and can service and upgrade the motor.
Hi Matt After fitting my blockleys I found I had 'fiddle' with one of the mudguards to move it slightly away from the tyre as it was rubbing slightly on heavy cornering. Try running a finger up the lower inner side of the mudguard , with you finger in the gap between tyre and mudguard. On mine there was a small round headed pip which I assume is a weld which was causing the issue. Slackening the mud guard bolts, especially the small horizontal support on the inside, getting a friend to lean against the mudguard then tightening up got enough back to stop the rubbing. Just something to watch out for as I was not aware of the rubbing until I noticed a track forming on the tyre.

Yes, thank you. I did have a bit of trouble with them and for that matter the stock Avon tyres as well. I adjusted it as you mentioned. Seems fine, but I'll keep my eyes on it.
These tyres run great. I'll take them on a more aggressive drive when I finish adjusting the pedal cluster. As it sits, I can only drive for ~15 min before getting leg cramps. I've tried all the posted tricks but they are not enough. I'm working on pedal solution that is quite a bit more custom and should yield ~2-3in of additional pedal movement.
