Looks like my riding season will be shortened for a while. Went to see a different orthopedic surgeon yesterday about my right knee, which was scoped out 2 years ago by another surgeon and is failing. I was hoping he would be able to do another scope to buy me some more time but after his thorough evaluation he says I definitely need a new knee. There are several things going on in there that just cant be scoped out. He also looked at pics of my left knee and said that it looked much worse then my right knee. I told him that knee was scoped out in 1998 and its been holding up fine save for some low level pain. He was surprised. Either way, looks like ill be shooting for a Jan 2012 surgery date. I should have sufficient leave for this by then. He also took me off naproxen and started me on Celebrex, which seems to be working a little better. WooHoo, only 10 more months to go!!

Ok front forks have been slid up an inch and looks like I just got lowering links and the caliper bracket handled. So the other piece to the puzzle is a shortened side stand. When I did this to my Vmax I had access to a welder and did it myself. No access this time and bike jack wont fit Venture. So I was hoping to buy one, anyone providing this service? Thanks Frank Edit: Looks like some Royal Star bikes had a shorter stand. 2006-? a source for one of these would work too if anyone can confirm. Ebay was a bust.

Well that was a long Daytona 500, but I liked the end. I'm glad Jamie won that, after losing his ride last year. They should have used that epoxy the first time they tried fixing the track though. Would have shortened the time we sat around watching it dry. Margaret
