Title: Need opinions please!
Post by: Slag on October 01, 2008, 02:07:11 PM
I know that it may be difficult to find an opinionated person on this site, but I had to try. As several of you know, my clumsy ass let my bike hit the pavement on our recent AR trip. Apparently the brembo monoblocks really are that bad ass, and I managed to stoppie/tuck front end while pulling into a parking lot. The only damage is a scratched right fairing. I am looking at less expensive options than a repaint or a new fairing.

My first impulse was the xerox sticker kit, but that is already being done in the group. I am considering going with the Alice desmo setup. I think that it will look kick ass on the black bike. I will also add the white number boards to the front and rear.

Here is a pic of the kit...

Although I really don't give a sh!t, I say go for it [thumbsup]

Cher should be finishing up Project Xerox soon, I'm sure she'll be excited to jump right on Alice!

BTW, yes the brakes are very, very good. One finger good... :P

I like the Sterilgarda, always have...

and that stunt is called a "scottie" not a "stoppie", in honor of our board member who performed that maneuver on HIS new 1098 at Cresson ( before he earned the nickname "Doppio Highside" )....

yo and werd to your mutha...
