USED! and get the F3 or even F2. If you have never ridden street bikes, start small. My old bike (pictured above) is a great starter bike and you can pick one up used for about $2000.00 in good condition. Its comfortable, easy to ride, and has power when u need it.

Do you know how to ride? If not, I don't recommend getting a new bike to learn on. That would be worse than learning to drive stick on an 8.

yah, you wont be so disapointed when you lay your bike down the first time if its an oldie....but to lay down a brand new bike may be disapointing, in addition to the pain you have from road rash. You don't have to worry about road rash in the sand of the desert . I was thinking of getting a 40th anniversary Harley...then I watched too much Discover channel emergency room...too many ruined bodies...good luck.

I have been riding since I was twelve and it is the greatest feeling on earth. I think about it every day. It is a passion, a life style, an addiction. As long as you are responsible and safe.

I miss my bike ... :*(

I plan on using a mini itx form factor, 7 inch touch screen, 512mb ram. The itx boards use soldered 1ghz processors. It's not going to be the fastest setup, but it will be far from slow.

Rotary Rasp....I received my MS parts and spent 6 hours last night installing just the MS front bumper. It would have been a simple 2 hour install, but the foglight portion was rediculous. Anyways, I'll have fog light brackets for you at our next meet, please just send me a reminder the night before so I put them in my car for you. If these work for you, I would hope that you would give me yours in exchange...so that when I sell the bumper, I can reattach them for the buyer.

Addictive...why did you decide on the nitrous?

YES!!!!


Are you gonna sell the brackets with no lights in them?

How soon do you want mine back? Because the projectors haven't come yet.

I'm contemplating how best to sell the bumper/parts. I have the front appearance lip sold, and could probably get some bucks for the rotory emblem...I'm thinking the rest of the bumper, w/or w/out the fog light brackets may get me another 80 bucks. Someone may need just the brackets..for what, I don't know....but hey, you did.

No rush, If I sell it prior to hearing from you again, I'll just send you another note...and we'll figure it out then.

Cheap 60 hp! And FUUUUUUNN!!! Plus I spoke to charles about his kit and he has had NO problems for a year now. I always thought Noz would blow up the motor after 2 uses if you leave everything stock. But I was wrong. So, as soon as I buy my bike, I will get the kit.
I guess can say i have a little addiction to speed. (AdictiveRx :D)
