Thanx all.

I wear a shoei (sp?) helmet. I almost put on a non-dot little peanut helmet as I was leavin the house. It was too cold and I opted for my usual full face job. Thank christ!!! I threw that little piece of **** in the garbage when I got home!!!!

My wife lost her 25 yr old brother Friday. The family is pretty banged up. I want to believe that Pete was watchin and he saved my ***!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I am feelin a little better. Got her torn down and the front end appears to be straight. Is there an "official" way to tell for sure?? I used my jack handle as a set of bars, made the bike level on the jack and eyed up the front wheel while looking straight down the front of the triple with the homemade bar straight. Wheel looks straight as an arrow.
Made a list of parts needed to replace and it looks pretty inexpensive so far.

I may get out of this for around 5 bills!!! I hope.

I was considering going to a different style of tank. Any ideas??? Pics???

I really think a week or two is not out of the question to get this piggy oinkin again!!!

Need a little help guys.

There was a small metal "box" that was originally attached to the inside of the rear fender, behind the battery. Some type of electrical componant. That went bye bye in the wreck. I need to identify the name of it so I can order one.

It was in the middle of this mess. You can see the two posts that were ripped out of it. Thanx
