By the time I decamped at 2:30, Marcin had donated his not insignificant mechanical skills to three bikes, valves were checked, a shock was replaced and a Honda was up on the lift having both sprockets replaced and a new chain installed.

Marcin - I owe you again!

Thanks, Beemer01

Curt, Why didn't you lift up the bike with the lift to work on it? It's a lot less stress on the knees...

I am asking you, Y2K, if your friend Martin bought another Sprint after last years uh . . . . incident?

(Maybe I should qualify my Martins; House, Purple, etc.)

[Beemer01]

But I could start earlier in the morning!

The guys over on ADV gave me some other things to look at to explain that left cylinder rattle -

Anyone riding this Sunday???
