Ok, so everyone knows I bought a trackbike from Zach.  Problem is, its a trackbike....... :P  So, help me make it street legal by next Sunday.  Maybe local shops or internet sites with quick shipping, that can help me out.  All ideas and suggestions are appreciated [thumbsup]  I was thinking of maybe some round HID's for the front, kinda like the new R1.  Will cut holes in front fairing.  I also need a mirror, prolly bar end, or maybe pig spotters, just to be legal.  Need tail lights, maybe just LED strips?  A horn too.... Come on peeps.... bring on the suggestions and comments.  Any good local shops in Ft Worth and Arlington? Inet sites?  HELP!!!! I don't own a street legal bike anymore.....  Squid-like [cheeky]

best way is to not ride the bike. 

Do you have a motorcycle endorsement on your license? 

Do you even have a passport? 

Do you know who you are?

Anyway, what do you think of these HIDs

you can obviously go to Lowes and buy some metal and make your own tail bracket....really simple.  Moto Liberty and Cycle Gear in Bedford has some good stuff also and if I remember they do have some brackets for the R1.

Do you really mean Sunday as in 30 hours from now?

That's way above my paygrade.  I'll try and think of something though.

I guess that R6 rides much better for you than the R1.

Ride what fits.

I worry about how good HIDs from other companies are.  Halogens are not very expensive relative to HID.

That's way above my paygrade.  I know, now let me ride your Hyper      I'll try and think of something though.   [popcorn]

I guess that R6 rides much better for you than the R1.  2001 R1 not babied......  2006 R6 with reworked suspension, Full Titanium exhaust, Ohlins damper,  roughly 360lbs.... yeah, it's better          Ride what fits.   Like a glove
