  1. I am too cheap to get the good stuff, actually I grabbed a headlight from a crash scene. It was a projector for a halogen bulb but it still works fine. Actually there is a couple of different glass lenses available. the US glass has a spiral pattern on it and the EURO market has smooth glass. this site http://www.dealextreme.com/ has all kinds of crazy knockoff stuff from china and has different glass for the projector if you want to experiment a bit
  2. I did a retrofit on GSXRNurses gsxr 600 and it was a bit of a pain but I have ADD. the popular projectors are from acura TSX and the honda S2000. Any projector that you use is 100x better than a reflector housing. With that said a projector made for a HID is even better. The shape of the projector housing is different betwwen the two, with the HID projector being slightly shorter and fatter. Motorcycle projectors have a cutoff that is straight where most if not all car projectors have a cutoff line that is slightly stepped, left side is slightly lower to keep light away from oncoming traffic.
  3. the stock projector actually has a pretty good pattern and a good cutoff, I dont know that you will need to run the high beam. A regular cool white halogen would be fine so you can still "flash" cars or other riders. HID have a couple second warm up so you can't do that quick flash of the high beams.
  4. I qualified for supplier pricing but that was $1200 off of sticker.
  5. 100% correct. Just doing the projector will be enough. You need to get a time delay relay (or switch) though so your light doesn't flicker when you start it (could result in premature failure of the bulb and ballast) k4/k5 gsxr 600/750 Projector = low beam reflector = high beam / low , dual filament k6 and up 600/750 Projector = high beam reflector = low beam
  6. We test drove a SS last week, we were kind of on the fence about it and the dealer didn't want to come down much at all on the price. Did you have a similar experience?
  7. how can you tell the bear is asian?
  8. I dont know how old your father is but his retirement withdrawal should not be subject to any early withdrawal penalties if it is used for medical bills. Take some time to do some research and speak with a tax professional
  9. I think it is great when they show "Job Fairs" on the news and everyone is either dirty or has their freshly ironed jeans hanging off of their ass. I do know a couple of exceptional people that were laid off and I guess that means the economy is actually pretty bad and neither had financial troubles and both are currently employed. They can chime in if they would like too
  10. GSXRNurse got her second bachelors in 13 months and makes about 3x as much as she did before. Her "CrackerJack" Degree is serving her well. Maybe if people didn't live above their means they would have money saved up for a "rainy day". I could easily make it two years without any income or unemployment benefits. Everybody I know who was receiving unemployment didn't start looking very hard until they got close to running out of time.
  11. if it looked like a giant bear on a little bike then it was probably him
  12. We got two from them back in feburary, they shipped out of sc and arrived in a couple days. There was a problem with one being the wrong size but they fixed it
  13. in back to back rides katanas crashed Most memorable quote "This ain't my first rodeo" then crash
  14. I ride behind people all the time and they do some stupid shit but they have never caused me to wreck.
  15. I see three different models of kawasaki 600 cc bikes for 97 Ninja ZX-6R Ninja ZX-6 Ninja 600R the zx-6r and zx-6 have the following rear shock Bottom-Link UNI-TRAK with remote reservoir, gas-charged shock, adjustable preload, 19-way compression and 4-way rebound damping the ninja 600r has the following rear shock Bottom-Link UNI-TRAK with air adjustable shock, 4-way rebound damping Todd- sorry about jumping on your advice, I searched zx600 and only saw the gas charged shock. If it is the 600R then it is air adjustable
