  1. Did it 10+ years ago. Best money I ever spent. Keep liquid tears on hand for the dry eyes...won't last forever though.

    Lifetime warranty...well..the place I went to changed names/ownership (yeah right)...so if I ever have to go back I get a 'discounted' rate. Keep that in mind. Would I still go back and do it? Hell yes. Best investment I ever made..and I was severely nearsighted. Contacts messed my eyes up a few times (especially while I was in the Army).

    Never looked back.

    enough said. i had to read a lot of bullshit in this thread, but this was the post i was looking for. i trust this guy and i don't even trust my mother.

  2. You're doing it wrong.

    I never read the instructions, so I'm not really sure if I'm doing anything right or wrong. But common sense should have told me not to try to weld on a live hand grenade. I was just trying to add some cool looking little spikes to the squares. Seemed reasonable at the time, but that was back when I was smoking a lot of crack. I should probably give welding another shot.

  3. If any of you want to save some cash buy the one without a ramp gate. I built a gate for a guy and he never showed back up with cash so I've got one already fabed up and painted black ready to roll. I'll even weld it on for you if needed. I'll let it go cheap.

    Can do other customizing to the trailers to if needed.

    I tried to weld once. ONCE.

    $178,500 in medical bills, lost part of my thumb, my entire left ball, and three toe nails on my right foot will never grow back right. So knowing someone who welds and can stay in one piece is a great advantage :D

  4. A ZX10 with a turbo......NICE!!!!!!

    I wouldn't care what it looked like or how ghey it was in other's minds, I'd love to ride that just once. I'd just have to make sure i update my will and make arrangements first just in case. I can just see the story now...

    "A man and his motorcycle were found wrapped around a light pole over 25 feet off of the ground on the south side of 270. Investigators are still trying to piece together what happened."

  5. In 2008 the GSXR was redesigned with many changes to the engine, suspension and brakes. The 06-07 design was all new at the time and only around for two years. I'm guessing they made a lot of refinements and fixed problem spots from the 06-07 model.

  6. I wouldn't say he was drinking. Did you see that 220* turn he made at speed? Sick.

    I've watched this video 25 times and still see more impressive shit. i'd say 180mph is a very believeable mark.

    And you have to realize this guy wasn't running from ANYTHING he was just having fun.

    He''s out there smoking and look to his right.....ahhhh shit

  7. i'm thinking the cops were all over a bike thing and called out the air support and he had no idea about anything.....and he HAD to be drinking to do what he did right? I have been riding for a while and could never ever dream of riding at speeds that ANY mistake will kil you.....we unless a lot of money is involved....lol

    the topic was "if i had 24 hours to live" BTW

  8. if he make you happy thats all matter.i use to dig harleys until i own one brand new ,08 electra glide,he last 6 months before i get rid of it.im not hater but im not going buy one again.

    Care to elaborate on that statement? You can't just drop an assumption like that (and at the same time abusing basic grammar and the English language) without at least an explanation to back up your opinion.

    In other words...WTF are you talking about?

  9. i dont like the v twins. cant really do weelies on them, and the other bullshit for drilling the heads is lame. rather just buy an inline 4

    Can't pull wheelies on a v-twin? I'm pretty sure a Ducati can manage a wheelie or two ;)

  10. I'm almost 43 years old and have owned bikes off and on since I was 16. Starting with a Honda MB5, then a KZ550, a GSX450, LTD454 (man I loved that bike), and the only bike I bought brand new a VX800, another KZ550, a 2nd gen Magna, and my latest bike a 00' GSXR600.

    So I like old school standards and cruisers...or so i thought

    But this gixxer has me hooked. This bike is so much fun, and SO much safer than any bike I've owned. It is so light, so maneuverable, and the brakes are outstanding. It can stop a full 20 feet shorter than my Magna in my panic stop tests. It's over 100lbs lighter and has twice the brakes. 20' could mean your life.

    I have no idea why I never owned a sportbike. I've done 150 miles in a day on this thing and it is MUCH more comfortable than I EVER thought a sportbike would ever be. I plan on taking to my mom's place in the mountains of WV on a 300 mile ride and I'm not even sweating thinking about it.

    I can't see me ever owning anything but a sportbike from now on.

    Life begins at 10,000 rpm :D

  11. I hope we never take for granted the ones who put their lives on the line to protect and serve the public. We are able to enjoy our freedom with the cost of their lives and all their sacrifices. I respect these people above all others. The family are in my thoughts and prayers. RIP.
