  • ATTN Ft Collins Members!! Assistance needed.

    I am stopped for the night in Torrington Wyoming and have a broken exhaust stud on number 1 cylinder. If you have a driveway I can work in and a drill (or just electricity and I will buy you a drill) to replace it I would be most appreciative.

    We will be hitting Ft Collins late morning.

    Try me by PM and i will send a cell number (based on which might have reception). Our motel has wifi tonight.

    I will be tracking down a new stud as soon as we hit town.

    Thanks
    John

                  many thanks

                  Many thanks to all who responded and to Joe McCarthy where we gave it a good college try but I could not get it out. So after a couple hours and alot of stories we rode anyway - myself, ryan, dylan, james and brant (motoman) led out of denver by joe on our way to buena vista where we stopped tonight. Heading south with motoman escorting us to the CO border.

                  Many thanks all for your support as always.
