Well John I ended up selling it to a fellow rider in need. Hated too see it go but I couldn't ride both and I didn't want it to sit and waste away. He promised to ride it and care for it the way that I did so that made selling a little easier. Thanks to all that helped, he should get plenty of trouble free miles out of her. Now about the forks; when you said to post in a different forum, how do I do that? My computer skills are almost non existent.
