Ah, ok. I knew about the Monaro/GTO thing, but it was still really weird being down there and seeing all the Monaro's and thinking "damn, everyone's got a GTO."

The Holden Commodore SS is the big thing now, between that and the utes. Well done on the conversion.

and I'm in North Carolina all this week and next for work. We'll have to hook up the weekend after next.

As Zoolander said, I need to tame the beast before I let it out of the cage...

I just got the tires and brake pads in today, going to grab some stands and get this stuff mounted. If I can score a brake bleeder somehow tomorrow I should be good, at least for the first wave of parts. Have a front rotor set coming later this week as well as some SS lines, going to do the brakes right.

At the same price as STG? I'm back in the USA for good, so I'll stop by. Thanks man!

because you don't have time to give me snuggles like you used to...

Sorry man, I know I've been in a cave recently. What's going on with your bad self?

cannolis are done and working on the family meat sauce now. i'm coming correct.

Casper and I are bunking together, his only condition was I had to be little spoon.

continued:

More complicated, but better:

Scorpion Alarm (i500, i600, i900) or equivalent. These alarms have three dimensional movement sensors and optionally perimeter alarms, plus remote notification to a pager-like device. The instant someone starts to screw with the bike, your pager goes off. Expect to pay $250 (used) to $500 (new, top-of-the-line) for this kind of solution with remote notification.

Damn, that really blows about the title. Good to hear you finally have it in hand.

I got the majority of the little stuff I wanted to do to it done, already changed all fluids, new front rotors (left one was warped when I got it), new tires (rear had a HUGE flat spot), stainless lines front/rear, new brake pads, Pazzo shorty levers and Progrip grips. My only thing this winter is to figure out what I'm going to do about plastics, the front cowl is all fux0red, tabs broken, fitment issues, the works. If I can get a decent OEM replacement for that and the right ram air cover, I'll have Paul (attackpainter) repaint it. If I can't, I'll try for the aftermarket ebay fairing sets. Either way, it's going to be a spicy meatball. I thought about the gear indicator too, that sounds like a decent mod.

You need any help with the brake pads or just finding a place to wrench, let me know. I've accumulated a decent tool set with both bikes, and brake pads are ridiculously easy to change.

Done.

Excellent. I'm working in New Albany until about 5:30/6ish, anytime after that I should be good. The CBR's up and running, ready to go.

Haven't seen you around in a while, how's the 636 treating you?

How's about tomorrow?

I don't think he knows anything else but attention whoring.

I have to figure out what those birds were. Those things were everywhere at the feeding, it was crazy!

I just stopped by there today looking for you, popped in to say hi. I'll have to have a look tomorrow.

I prefer m-m-m-MONSTER SNAP! I also used to play entirely too much Unreal Tournament.

i promised i would upload my Aussie pics, and here they are: http://www.binaryshower.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=5

I seriously feel like Rocco in Boondock Saints right now. FUCK! What the, how the fuck did you get that over here?!

Seriously though, how the hell did you get a Holden Commodore all the way to the States?

I should have them rotating between the koala, kangaroo, and the emu. All the pics are here: http://www.binaryshower.com/gallery. I haven't really gone through the Aussie or Czech ones, I'll try and work on that this week.

I smell road trip! I made some friends when I was in Key Largo, some of the reefs there are totally awesome. Best time to go is July-ish, the seas are calm and visibility is a lot better.

I'm on it, can't wait!

If you have some time, I've got the hardware. What day works for you?

Is this the pre-bike night ride tomorrow? If so, I won't be able to, work.

It does seem that the door was slammed shut pretty hard on that one...
