Looks more than likely I'll be making that trip to BMore tomorrow. A dude in Alexandria said he could help but, he's only available today and I don't think I can get it done today. Argh!

Re: Cycle whore thread
Yea my current living situation, I don't have space for stands. Moving out this summer though. I forgot I know a local guy I bumped into few months back. He tracks his back all the time. Hopefully he can give me a hand. I just shot him a text.

I'll do it. I'm assuming it's a rivet-style link? I'm here:

Definately looking into mild options, but a front end swap is out of the question.

Already have a second bike, but a third bike...now we are talkin'. I'm working overtime to get a new Speed Triple, yum.

One of the guys pm'ing me said he sat on one and completely changed his mind about what bike he wants. I think he is scouring night and day to find a good example of one.

Good luck, they must ride really well.

Speed triple is sex on wheels, and SO comfortable. It is a great mix of sport, and leisure.
