^True... but looking for something more tangible.

More permanent you mean. Gas is plenty tangible

- Got good gloves? $100 would do for all the cost, but a good bit.
- Adjustable lever
- A rizoma reservoir
- New front tire...

why in god's name would i put flames decals on my kilt.


they would be patches or embroidered. [roll]

Too? Wrap is about $1/foot, and you'd probably need a 50' roll to do all the exhaust. Sucky part is that it only comes in 15' or 50' (or more) roll size...

The decals there - try searching on 'number plate' to similar for those on the tail

think I'm going to do the exhaust wrap.
I like the gold color on that bike, but I think more of a silver color would match my bike since I don't have the fancy expensive forks.

Bluetooth for your helmet.  I just got one and am able to listen to music streaming over the internet, GPS directions, and make/take cell phone calls.  I also picked up an electrical connector that uses the trickle charger leads to feed a "cigarette" lighter adapter into which I plug in my cell phone charger.  I never have to worry about a dead cell phone that way.

Ciao!

Already got the bluetootha few years ago. :( Wish I would have waited till now because they are much less expensive now.
