So Jason Britton has been across the street from my work do some type of photo shoot for Icon. I do not see any video cameras so doubt it is for his TV show. They are using the roof top of one our buildings for the shoot

Nice. Is that the 600, 750, or 1000?

Now its time to start modding. You should remove the reflectors and that ugly fender for starters.

1000. Reflectors are gone and I have the fendor eliminator in the garage, it was stainless/alum so I am in the middle of painting it flat black.

Only other mods I have are frame sliders that I have to go pick up tonight and a Power Commander (fuel injection controller) that will be put in after the break in is over.

This is exactly why you don't need a fast car. Just a refined one like the RX8 that hadles and feels like a motorcycle.
