    That's solid, I've got nothing to one up you with there without gross fabrication.

    I got a nerve block on the first go, but not the 2nd. I suspect a 3rd is in my future, but I need to let a year pass first. That nerve block is incredible, I was attempting to crutch my way into the house returning from the hospital but I was stuck. I looked down and realized my limp casted leg was snagged on the underside of the threshold to my house. Thought that was pretty cool.

    Sounds like you need to fire the builder. That's what I did after I had my transmission in and out 4 times trying to do it myself.

    I did... after he went through it twice. This was my first go at it. I'm starting to think the 3/4 fork is bent. I'm gonna blame the help anyway.

    Do you have the aluminum or iron 3-4 fork?
