The rear wheel, the rear fork, and the rear caliper are history.

[FONT=Verdana]Side bar: As I was preparing to torque the pivot shaft of the new rear fork to 75 ft-lbs I was straddling the bike; left foot on the 1 1/8", bending over to the right to keep the 1 1/8" socket and the torque wrench squared up. The Lady came out in to the garage on her way to the office and said, 'I guess you plan on a face plant today? Get on the right side of the bike!' Being the deviant I am I needed an image. She held the combination wrench while I got the 75 ft-lbs on the right side. She's a good sport, that one [/FONT]:cool: [FONT=Verdana]Some times you need an extra set of hands; sometimes, you just need a gal in heels [/FONT]:D
