  1. Do you have credit to go with that $1200? This all depends on what your looking for or how mechanically inclined you are. If you look hard enough you can probabbly find something that cheap however you will spend at least that to get it back on the road. Just my .02
  2. I guess its that or a coin toss on an F4I or busa. I'll have to think hard about this one.
  3. Yeah I about fainted when I saw the price... If you have those throw em up on ebay or the forum this spring. I'm sure someone would show interest. I'll wait for my taxes before I order a set unless I find something cheap enough now.
  4. I know yours was a different app, but did you have to make any modifications to the bike? My buddy has a gixxer K with those on it and they are very nice! Helibar dosent offer a settup for my bike.
  5. +2 on the murdered out look! I'm not a fan Icon's lids. Correct me if I'm wrong but arent they made by HJC? Or at least the shell construction is?
  6. Yeah I know but I'm in a weird situation right now. Long story short: I've been seeing a sports med dr for a little while now. (For what started out as Tendonitice and has formed into Tendonothopy) However ya spell that. Anyways I've been going to therapy to repair it and the doc isint happy with the results and recomended to either stop ridding or change the angle at which I ride. Rather not sell the bike or stop ridding.
  7. Anyone had any experience with these? http://www.convertibars.com/index.cfm Thinking about putting them on my 636
  8. good gawd if that aint the truth. Gotta do something to keep my mind occupied for these winter months...
  9. Used helmet is like a used condom...
  10. Dont quote me but basically they draw it out, then spin it, then re-inject it into the damaged area. By spinning it, it does something with the healing factor. It causes cells to repair faster.
  11. I"ve done 2 bikes. 07 CBR 600RR and an 08 GSXR 750. I was drunk when I did the CBR. It turned out perfect!!! For the GSXR I was sober and nervous... Needless to say I fucked it up a little.

    Hmf

    I've always had great luck with HMF engineering in Cleveland. I deal with Austin who runs the retail end of things and he's extremely knowledgeable. Hans the owner is a really good dude as well. They used 2 of my bikes for prototypes 06 CBR 600RR and 07 GSXR 1000. In doing so they gave me pipes of my choice. If you have a new bike or popular bike that they dont offer a pipe for give them a call!
  13. That better of been a full system... I'm not sure the credibility of the individual that told me. I'm guessing if they are going belly up it will be for restructuring...
  14. Someone told me Andrews was going out of business?
  15. They said thats part of it. My tennis elbow or Tendonitis has gone into tendonothopy. (spelling). My fingers/hands go numb from time to time. Makes it hard when your working on stuff.

    Pipe

    I've got a scorpion pipe that I love and hate... I like the way it sounds, but not the way it looks. Its that funny blue flame and chrome look. I think it would look better all polished, powdercoated, or wrapped in Carbon Fiber. Do you know if I send it back to them if they can do this?
  17. WOW!.. What a small world... I remember when Scorpion lids first hit he was trying to talk me into one. I had came into the shop and he warrantied a broken side piece off my Arai Tommy Gun. I went back later on to buy a jacket and lid from him but he had left CR. Lol, this is too funny...
  18. Is he bald/shaved head, wear glasses, used to work for Jeff at Crooked River motorcycles?
  19. Wow I cant believe I read the whole thing! As stated on the first page you can ask 10 people and get 10 different answers. With that said here's what I do: -Fill the tank and add Stabil -Put the bike on stands -Put battery tender on. Or pull the battery and put tender on -Lube the chain -Put progrip orange butt plug in exhuast -Clean the bike every two weeks, lol -Put a lock on it and make sure you have at least fire and theft Oh and I like JB80 over WD40 its twice as good! A good "dont", tire shine the tires... Thats a big no no. I know someone who did that thier first winter.
  20. Sounds like you had a similar treatment. But you did have a 100% recovery?
  21. This is interesting to see. I've posted my condition on other motorcycle enthusiast sites and no one ever commented. I thought maybe if I put dirt bike or heli bars on my bike it would help but its hard to say. My therapy is stretches, massages, intense icing, and some electrode deal.
  22. I wore a brace for almost 1.5 years and it hasnt healed by itself. I really hope the Therapy works but have been told its a joke.
  23. Huh, thats cool. I'll get in touch with him.
  24. I've had Tennis elbow since 07. I've never played Tennis in my life. I remember the day it felt like I got stabbed in the elbow. I was on my 07 GSXR 1000 with a passenger on back. I've dealt with it since then and had two cortizone shots. Recently it got worse and I decided to do something about it. I went to a DR and they sent me to a sports medicince DR in Streetsboro. He said first were going with Physical Therapy. If that dosent work they will pull blood and spin it then re-inject it into the damaged area. If that dosent take then they will do surgery... Hope this works I really want it fixed. Worse part is I might not be able to ride the first part of the year
  25. Where's the shop located? I've been through Ravenna many times and dont remember seeing it. Is it close to the Macdonalds & BP close to RT 5?
