My son is a physical therapist student. He said the pain was where the tendons connect to the bone. He sugested streatching my arm out all the way and twisting my wrist arond. I did that all winter in my truck on the way to work every day. (40 miles each way). I also squeezed my fist like I...

I'll try moving the seat up. I had to take the quick adjuster bolt out because the seat would not move out of a position in between slots on the seat. (The seat was loose). I think the seat has been dinked with or something. It is on the middle hole right now. I will see if I can move it up...

Thanx joedrum. Will do. Once I get a picture I'll put an avatar. I can live comfortably without the stock pipes if I must.
