I thank you all for chiming in. I will admit I like the feeling, knowing that I fixed something. I replaced that rear master cylinder, and when I pressed that lever, and stopped my spinning tire, oh man, that excitement. I would love to do more of that. So, I think I am willing to give it a shot. Worst case scenario, I figure, I will have saved myself the cost of disassembly and parts at the shop, as I bring in a box full of my failed experiment. So, I bought myself the Clymer manual for the bike, and intend to read up on how this procedure is supposed to go. Any walkthroughs you can point me to would be appreciated (preferably with pictures). Within the coming weeks, I will be able to run that compression test, and once I get a fuller picture of the problem, I will be able to start in earnest. Thanks for helping me here guys. This really is a great forum.

Just read throughbthis whole thread. Sounds like your bike was tip top after leaving the shop, but you hit that speed bump, now you have problems again.

You're going to have to figure out what happened on that bump that created whatever issufe you have now.

Did it possibly crush a header pipe?

What hit?

Do you see any damage?

You CAN fix this bike yourself. Picking up a couple tools as you need them is way cheaper than shop bills and waiting til you can afford them probably wont take any longer than waiting for your turn in line at the shop.

You can do this. We can help you. Just hang in there and don't let it frustrate you! Fixing it will be a very rewarding experience.

Experience is something you get just after you need it.
