Rep Power: 291 Spring install party
I'm not offering to host one...but just curious what other peeps got saved up in the basement to install this spring?
So far I've got:
Rearsets
SS braided brake lines
Rear Shock (from a GSX-R 1000)
not much, but it'll totally change the behaviour of my bike
post up, b1tches! it's a celebrashun!!!

Rep Power: 0 some wheel studs, so my wheel doesnt fall off again. Still have to order my exhaust parts, as well as some piping so I can make intercooler pipes. Then I just have to tune my car. Your bike is going down Jimbo.

If he bought a H4 HID kit and then went and installed TYCs, his H4 HID kit would have been a waste of money - unless he stuck with OEM, as his TYCs would be H1 bulbs. Though in any event, TYCs are known to have problems taking HID kits into their sockets and you will probably need to drill the sockets/holes larger to accomodate.

Rep Power: 0 haha, ya my wheel fell 1/2 off while i was driving, apperently my old rims dont work with my new rim's lugs, i thought i could make it to the gas station maybe 3 km away. Needless to say i was wrong. but still, my car if all goes well should be trapping around 110-115mph, your bike stock from what I've found on the net does --> Corrected 1/4 mile: 11.87 sec. @ 110.02 mph. which is total ownage of my car. However, last year at luskville your went 13.xx if i'm not mistaken? :P ya im gonna lose but I want a shot at it.

Rep Power: 291 hehehe launching a bike is hard.....retarded hard. but, i'm better than a couple years ago at luskville. *sigh* straightlines are so boring, though.
something else i might be installing:
if i win an auction on ebay today...i might install different rims/tires on my bike this year. Instead of teh stock 160/60/17, i'll go with 180/60/17's...fatness! I'll have to get a sprocket/chain kit, and rear rotor as well as spacers...so i might sit on the project for a few months. but...should be fun if i get the wheels!! hopefully it won't hurt cornering (superbikes have 180's...so i don't understand why people say it hurts cornering).
bottom line: i'll race you shandon, as long as the trophy is your sister
