    Sooo I just joined you northies...

    Not to worry, I'm sure your insurance will cover therapy and all that.
    Started a new job today!

    Anyway I moved in with a buddy who has an RSV1000 that desperately needs a new rear. I don't have a machine, and don't want to screw up the pretty blue wheel with irons, but we bought him a race takeoff (Thanks Thadius) to install.

    Who's the best for install in FoCo? Prices? Experiences?

    Call Scer (Scer on the board). He's a solid guy.

    +1 for Scer, his shop is in loveland. He also has a very large selection of take-offs for future reference

    +1 for Scer. He put my tires on and he's always great with tire knowledge and just a good guy all around.

    another vote for Scer. Haven't had any work done but partook in his free tire seminar.

    Welcome to the north and congrats on the new job.

    Awesome, thanks for the suggestions guys! I had been thinking about him, but for some reason I kept thinking he was in Denver.

    Oh and as of right now I'm with a buddy through the end of the week just west of Shields on Prospect.
    On the bright side, I do now have access to an RSV 1000R, and an R6 to ride if I so feel the need!

    Haha well if you guys are up for a meet n greet next week or sometime let me know!

    And I didn't want to say anything until I cleared it with him, but I have to give a huge thank you and thumbs up to Rybo for posting that job at his company. Interviewed, got it, and apparently I'm doing really well in it. So again, thank you Rybo!!!

    Congrats! I was wondering why I never heard back from them, haha. luckily we're ending up moving anyways, so I'm not bitter.

    Sounds good. I don't have a bike right now of course so I'm more than willing to be D.D. PM incoming to you and the rest of the FoCo Fratasses!

    Ironic, I had to move to accept the offer!

    Wait till you hang out with him more than once. The guys a total d-bag. And if I had a nickle for every time he parked it in the corners, I'd buy myself an island.
