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!

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.

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

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.
