wow $1500 huh[&:]what if ya did the work yourself, have you priced parts alone??

 

I have thought about it, but I'm not that comfortable trying to do some of the things that will need to be done. I also wouldn't really have the time or place to do it. If I bring it to the shop I work at, we'll most likely get real busy and I wouldn't get a chance to touch it
But, when we're busy, I'm makin money . I work on cars, and I don't have much of an idea about fixing bikes. [&:]

 

bikes are honestly easier than cars once you know what to do - and getting a service manual takes care of that

 

Dress for the crash not for the ride. Glad it wasn't worse.
