I've been riding for over 10 yrs... maybe looking to go get a nice cruiser... Its stressful having a sportbike here in Vegas--always stressing out hoping your bike is still out there after running into a store... and don't even get me started w/ the drivers here.

God, damn!! That's a sick bike Marco, you got good taste! I would definitely steal it from you, even though I've never ridden a bike. I have ridden dirt bikes and quads before, but never a street bike.

Right now my baby is stock. Just have brand new 08 engine, tranny and clutch. So still have a but load of warrenty. And want to keep it for awhile as I want to install the next renasis engine that they are soon to be putting out in 2010. So I don't see the point of doing anything to the engine ATM.

And the rest, I have been with my soon to be ex and he enjoyed living off of me and being a leech so I am broke, and will take a bit to get my accounts back to bulging and rebuiding my portfoilo.

So they are on the to do list, and I keep window shopping.

And the pics, I keep putting it off. As I let being preggers and having a baby get in the way of the usual fawing over my car.

I like the kit, minus the parts that I circled in the picture. You should get a shop to customize it, the painting would cost somewhere in between $200/$300/$400. It really depends on the shop and quality.

I hope I didn't cut you off. If I did I am sorry. I was 2 times aggressive when I was preggers. People used to go out of their way to get away from me.

You have got to kidding right?? That is too precious. You must have had a bad night, and are not fully awake.
