Already got my tires, chain, and sprockets on. New battery and oil is done. Suppose I do really need some new gloves, would love some soft sportbike saddle bags, would think I was the tits if I had me a 2 way radio/intercom.

Other than that I just need to ride!

Ooooh me too! *sigh*

The bike has had the valves checked, new rear, and a new air filter put on over the winter. That's about all I can afford this year. If I had spare cash I'd be getting a new helmet and jacket or possibly a suit.

1- F & R bike stands
2- new Front tire
3- new riding jeans ( another pair of Sliders or Draggin jeans)

Well if I take the bike to Alaska then I will have a shit ton of things that I will need/ want.

1: Luggage, tank, tail, sides.
2: GPS
3: New jacket but it really isn't in the budget nor truly needed.

other then that i have everything i need for trips and all of my gear is in usable shape

OSP you still look'n for that tank bag?

that about covers my list...although it might wind up being about 6 months before i get a new ride...my life is going to suck:(

No cheddah...

well let me know before you leave... we'll work something out

I don't have a list of thing to get done before the "riding season"...pretty much the only thing I really want to do at some point is replace my speedometer. :panic: I should probably get new (matching) tires at some point too. :lol:

Oh and get a truck and trailer since the guy who I was hoping would transport me to my first track day is bikeless and moving to Colorado. :bash: :(

New Leather Jacket
Rear Stand
And a 4,000 Mile Service

I just got a new jacket and pants are on the way.:dthumb:

________
STRAIN INDEX

Rain gear
Lock
Alarm
Leather chaps
Riding jeans
Bike..
New job..

Holy hell I have so much bike related crap right now, I doubt I need any more, I have six different stands in the garage right now. My list would be:

1. New Track gloves, my Shock Racing GP-1's are beat. Probably Kushitani or Held, or possibly some custom Z-Racing ones.
2. Tankbag, I have soft saddlebags, I'd like a tankbag.
3. I want to do some work to the KTM. First and foremost a new set of bars, I put the ProTapers on and don't like them. "The List" for the KTM would be quite long.

Nothing.

I'd talk to Odie at Special OPS... I talked to him back when you first got your bike and he said he was looking to get his hands on an 1125 setup so he could hack it.

I've gotta imagine someone's donated a bike for him to hack at...

At -30 with 3ft of snow on the ground, Cutty might be a great donator.

Damn right.

1. New tires
2. Alpinestars short cuff gloves for short rides to work and such
3. Alpinestars boots

Should be able to do the tires and boots from my tax return check and the gloves I want arent too bad so I should be all set.

I want to get my VTX sold and get an FZ1

then
mesh jacket
new boots

a girl that likes to ride
i mean getting my girl to ride

:lol: i read that first line and was like... Oh shit... more drama in the FL

I'll take her when you're ready to trade up.

New gloves.

I am buying only exactly what I need right now. I went WAY over budget this past year racing and will dial it back a notch for a few months.

Once the decision has been made to keep the current bike or upgrade I'll know if I need a full system, PCIII, quickshifter, and GP pattern rearsets.

Don't be fooled.

Jarv likes to talk shit but he knows his chances of "trading up" are slim.

And by slim I mean "never going to happen in ten lifetimes".

says the guy we dont see anymore

if i keep it up she just might trade me in lol
:panic:

I still see Vicki on a regular basis. :diitb:

thats funny cuz i always see tiffany too
but she lets me put it in her mouth

Well if i must....

-Mesh riding pants
-Riding boots- AS Octane?
-Chatterbox

:lmao: Wait, is Frodo picking on ME for being short? redflip

I need a couple of small maintainence things done, like working rear brake. New tires, a new lid, and I'd like to get a new mesh jacket and maybe some new summer gloves. I have a nice list of little things I'd like to get, especially before the rally, but I'll be happy with new tires, lid, and a rear brake. :D

You don't need that for the rally, it's best you leave it at home.

I like having a useable rear brake. It's definitely been a learning experience riding without one :panic: :lol:

1.) Another helmet (Looking at Shark & Scorpion)
2.) New mesh shorty gloves (the padding in the palm of my A*'s is compeltely worn out)
3.) Bar end weights
4.) Armoured or Kelvar reinforced jeans

For me its a house and a buyer for my track bike :(

Tom

I probably wouldn't miss mine, I never use it. It can cause an easy spill in the mountains.

Hayabusa
1 Fit New Dash and cover with CF
2 Relocate Gauges and Switches
3 New PLugs
4 Oil Change
5 Replace chrome Fairing with black

Victory
1 Replace Plugs
2 Change Oil
3 Clean and polish intake Stacks (internal

Ducati
1 Oil CHange
2 New Front Tire

Goldwing
1Change Oil

There's no mountains, much less hills to ride here so I don't have that experience. :idk:

Whatsa matta you rear brake?

I seldom use the rear at the track but rely on it in alot of city riding situations. I find it useful on downhill approachs track or street though...

I've already got most of the stuff I needed to get.

Still need to get ohlins valves and springs rebuilt into my forks.

Need to get the ohlins damper and the custom under-triple mount I want.

The rest is just work, not anything I need to get... put on the new chain, wire up an ignition switch, sell some more parts, put the whole back back together and clean 'er up, learn how to not ride it like a gaping vagina, etc...

:idk: if he would ever email me back... :tt: Sent him a few emails months ago, when I put it up for the winter.

Emailed him again yesterday, used my military email.
Got a response today, guess it got his attention :lol:

After thanking me for my interest and service, he said he should have something by the end of Feb, and will let me know when it's ready.

Hmmm... now I may have a choice to make... Drummer or Spec Ops?

Special OPS is certain to be cheaper... However, you might not have much of a choice to make... whichever one comes out first...

The Drummer sounded pretty bad ass. I wanna hear the SpecOps.

I wanna SEE it... seems like all the 1125r's exhausts with the exception of the Drummer is ugly as sin... and even the Drummer needs a chin fairing to clean it up right IMO...

the fuck'n D&D is HIDEOUS

Truth.

1) Stop buying shit!
I now have a pair of short cuff Power Trip gloves, AGV gauntlets, Cortech gauntlets, Cortech winter gloves, and hopefully a pair of A* GP Plus I found on another forum, Cortech mesh jacket, A* Spinner jacket, A* Stunt 2 jacket, Fieldsheer leather pants, A* leather pants, JR race boots, Sidi touring boots. Cortech riding jeans, Draggin jeans, Icon insulated jeans, 3-4 different shields for my helmet, Icon knee guards... Have I forgotten anything?

2) Maybe pick up another RF-1000.
3) Another pair of riding jeans.

1. Front tire
2. Leather pants

Really think special ops will be cheaper?

The badweb guess is the Drummer is gonna run ~$700-800
I know I like the sound of the Drummer, like ebbs said it needs a chin fairing though.

As for delivery time... Odie says end of feb first part of March will be production. Doesn't seem to be a long waiting list for his pipe, but it's not the being drooled over on badweb either.
Drummer, Kevin has materials in for 10 production units. Still waiting on dyno results from the prototype. My guess is there will only be about a week diff in the delivery time, and there is a longer waiting list (from what people talk) for the Drummer.

Honestly it will come down to looks and sound. I know both of these guys will make sure it performs at least as good as the stocker.
I am just looking to drop a couple pounds and get some rumble out of the bitch!

Have there even been pics of a Special Ops prototype?

Negative.
Prior to this email from Odie, there has been no WORD of a special ops prototype. I kind of like this as it means there is a better chance I can get one quicker.

Nice.

XB pipes:

Drummer = $400 or something...
Spec OPS = $250.

Nice. What did you have on yours again?

Pretty sure he had SpecOps.

Off to search for pics of OSP's old buell :leaving:

He just posted one is a thread somewhere.

I know... gotta find it.

it was the drunk ho knocked over my bike thread...but you can't see the pipe.

Streetfighter thread. You can kinda see it.

http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/l...o/100_2730.jpg

Looks like the drunk ho pic is pre spec ops.

I don't really have any good pics of the bike with the Special OPS pipe on it... It was actually jacked up to begin with... I wanted the outlets to be slashcut, but Odie forgot... He offered to pay return freight and fix it, but I didn't have the time.

More Special OPS on my Buell pics...
 

Not really very good pics, but you can sorta see...

Thanks, I hope he gets something close to that for the 1125. Definatly has to be black though.

OSP, Why didn't you get rid of the cheese grater?

No time. That was on the list... I was going to hack it into horns... Can't find a picture, but I'd imagine you've seen it.

Don't think I've seen a grater made into horns.

http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...6025a809c6.jpg

Couldn't find a pic, so here's a terrible artistic rendition.

That is pretty terrible...but I get it.

Well fuck you Michaelangelo.... The horns are sick... the picture sucks.

Thats basically what I said, bitch. You Photoshop skills leave something to be desired.

MSPaint FTW.

1-new exahust
2- trim my tumor of my back end(fender) no need to buy when I can use what I got.
3- new brake set ups.
4- tires
5- new helmet

get my monster 696!

unfortunately my commission checks are getting smaller and smaller so i don't know when that will be.

until now, the dr200 is up and running, its 70 degrees here. just need to clean and lube my chain and put a sealing tape on my exhaust pipe.

I can now scratch off a front brake fluid reservoir (don't ask....mine broke :lol: ) and new tires! :rockwoot:

Now for gear. I hate shopping for gear.

I am putting -Get a truck on my short list.

ya i need one of those too

I just found out I may have to be in Alaska soon enough that a 2 wheel trip might be out of the question. If that is the case, its time to get a truck and haul what few things I own up there.

2 bikes...tired of riding bitch... :lol:

My "short list" has grown. Bleh

Race bodywork
Street tires
generator

Used Bike! :)

Shopping around kinda like these:
New helmet

New Jacket

or
http://shopping.scorpionusa.com/images/stinger-wht.jpg

Icon Kevlar reinforced jeans

lets see i def need tires but id like to do a damper and an afam/did evr2 520 conversion. maybe go up one out back. also hoping to scoop up another old 600 to replace my 450 as a daily beater and hopefully start saving up some cash so i can scoop an exotic up at some indeterminable time in the future (you hear me triumph? 2010 would be a great year to debut a new litre daytona)

Get 7.3 liter turbo diesel
Buy and own a gun
Keep losing weight.

The drummer is done...

A proposed 17hp gain from stock...
No word yet on pricing.

Still think I'm going to wait to hear from Odie, see what his final product is goign to look like.
I know I'm on the waiting list for a Drummer, but no where near the top.

Link to thread with dyno runs. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buel...tml?1234652571

Not bad. Any idea on how far down the list you are and when you can expect it?

No idea... The thread was about 4 or 5 pages long with "put me on the list" posts by the time I sent in an email. :idk: Plus I'm sure there are others not on Badweb too...

I'm actually leaning more toward Spec Ops because there shouldn't be as much of a wait, it should be cheaper, and I hope it will look/flow better with the lines on the bike.

Another week or two and Odie should have something to show at least.
Not like I'm missing any riding time anyway.
