So by any stupid chance does anyone have a lower triple tree. Just took my upper tree off and the threads are stripped. My Celina trip is definitely in jepordy at the moment.

If no one else chimes in, I've got one you can have for the cost of shipping, but you'd have to buy a die and clean up the stripped threads.

Update: Never mind, sorry I just read the title before responding. Best of luck.

Ordered one off ebay a long with a tap and die off amazon. Looks like Thursday will be an all out flog to get the bike together and on the road Friday morning.

Good luck, man. Hope you make it. The only thing I can offer is have everything else finished by Wednesday night. Packed, locked, and loaded.
You have, what, around 400 mile haul? Ride safe, brother.

I was wondering about you when you mentioned mounting the new wheel and being done.

I really hope it works out on the timing.

We sure don't want to have to mail a sheep..

Technically speaking if the trip never begins, I didn't break down. Got to admit, I feel a little guilty about breaking Phil's balls about screwing his up in Eureka Springs.

DON'T!!! If you set a precedent the rest of us have to follow and Phil will not know how to act

Do not forget, if worse comes to worse, a 5 pound shop hammer and air impact are a proven fix . . . . . .

i have both those items on standby. A 3/4 impact should do, right?

Now I'm tempted to just throw the top but in the garbage and clamp some vice grips on the stem. If you get it all fixed up, bring that tap and die to Arkansas in October. You know, just in case.
