Yeah, i have a little back pain. Not too terrible, but i'm taking it easy at work.

Looks like the bars aren't bent at all!! They just shifted, so all i have to do is loosen them and re-adjust. Smiley SUPER HAPPY!!

I will be delivering Martins Potato Bread...

NPR FOR THE WIN!!

Be sure to check the forks for alignment too. They can get twisted in the triples in events like this

Delivering for reals? How's that work then? Are you a contractor that you need the truck? Curious minds...

NPR? I like NPR too... but not following the threads here

Yeah i need to go over the whole bike real well.

Yes. I am a contractor for the company. I buy the bread then deliver/sell to the stores. I cam rent a truck from them but its way cheaper to own.

If you plan to carry the bike in the truck often, I'd recommend you snag a Pit Bull Trailer Restraint set up. Not cheap, but work like magic.

I don't plan on it all that often. I have a nice strap-set from Coleman my brother gave me. Did well for the ride here. The biggest issue was getting it inside the truck. After that, cake-walk. Wink
