its raining bikes
 

going to be abusy week for me and new bikes. I go the ins on the buell today and ma picking that up tomorrow. I also went to look at a new track bike and wound up buying that too. Got an 07 gsxr 750 for 3K its got some body damage on the right side but all levers and pegs are intact and the bike runs great.

Figure I can get a few bucks for the street stuff and use it towards race plastics and suspension upgrades.

Tom

well aren't WE just stocking the garage :lol:

(cool man)

' Hey big spender '

congrats!

again.

you suck...find me another gixxer for 3 grand

So you can go out and buy two bikes but will get killed if you bring another helmet home?:lol:

:lol:

:wtf: So, what...the Priller, the old GSXR, the Buell, the new GSXR and the TL? Holy shit.

Money bags!

:lol

Yeh no shit, what are you up to now 5 bikes? Anyway I think I'll be on the island this weekend

nice! ive just negotiated a new to me bike project as well. trying to pick a good time to go scoop it up. hopefully this week

details-details!

I may just stop by his house and grab one for myself, it will bring me up to 3, 6 if you count mini bikes

grab me one, will ya...i'll take the 07 gixxer...kthanxbye :D

i'll be at four counting mini's ;) five if you count mopeds

How you talk Karen into letting you have more bikes??

Told her I will pay off her cc bills and buy her a few more pairs of boots.

Sounds like a win win for me :rockwoot:

tom

If you need extra levers, I have OEM levers from my 08 750 but I'm pretty sure they'll fit an 07.

So thats the key, huh?

Its worked so far, besides shes a shoe/boot addict so if I can score a bike or 2 out of all of it then its a win :)

Tom

then you can try hats ;) my boy was buying off his wife with puppies for a while. Kinda limited though :lol:

I'd say so. Get your ass on the road. You're burning day light.

were leavin in about 15, as usual someones not ready yet.

tom

Who's driving you? Chris? Wife?

Nice. I want an 07 750 track bike for 3k too.

so you get two new bikes and she will be wearing some new tall black leather boots for you?

and she bought that? damn you're good.:rockwoot:

Well if buying boots got you a bike then buying finger nail polish should at least be good for another helmet purchase:lol:

Spotted!
 

I found him in PA!

nice! hey tommy, impressions?

guess the Buell died on him...:lol:

Blast you.

Go lay down :lol:

It made it home fine. I am a bit hurtin right now after 20 miles and some NYC traffic i am a bit beat. I am liking what I have seen so far. Power delivery seems very smooth, not much engine breaking with the slipper clutch so I have to get used to that. Suspension is much stiffer than the priller, I may tighten up the front though since the front end realy semed to nosedive with kinda hard breaking.

Not sure what to make of the brakes yet but figure they may need to bed in a bit more to give better feel but def have good stopping power, and unlike what marko said about the other buells shifting is very smooth and effortless.

Now to get it broken in so I can beat on it a little and get a better impression of it.

Tom

motoman breakin, the buells seem to do better with it

whats that?

Mine was shifting too smooth today...thats how I knew something was wrong.

vans all cleared out. looking forward to v-twin fun next year

whats up with the firebolt?

You figure you buy a new bike you could splurge a little and buy some gloves.

redflip

:lol:

One more thing, Tom. I don't think that the temp tag is large enough, I can't read it from my blackberry from 40 feet away:nee:

Minor issue. Bolt came loose (thanks vtwin) from the shift linkage. It bent and I couldn't get it tight because it was bent. So I had to turn around and take it home on my way to meet Tom. I got a new bolt, after the HD parts guy searched the store high and low for 20 minutes to find it.

Oddly enough, it was shifting really smoothly. Thats how I knew something wasn't right. :lol: Didn't have that normal HD clunk..it was just sliding right into gear. Which was nice, but not normal.

That was my squidly moment, we were just going up the block to go grab lunch, had i remembered you could go helmetles in PA I may had left that in the car too :lol:

Tom

jeebus don't say that out loud around here. :lol

i know right? I amost got crucified over some pics from last years toy run

That is super cool!!!

The red really looks nice out in the sun.

Did tommy post pics somewhere I haven't found yet?

Nope. I haven't seen any.

Prick is slackin!

Truth.

I know I know. I took a few this afternoon and will get them up tomorrow morning.

Yom

yommyyac.

I say you upload tonight or get banned!

well I am at work now and said camera is at home so theres not much I can do. So bear with me and i will get them up in the AM, I have to fire up my other laptop to upload them :)

Tom

WTF You have seriously let us down. You better have some cool pics to redeem yourself.

I will do my bestest, did take a few good front and side views, none of the rear due to the humongus temp tag :lol:

Tom

The humongous lobster claws on the front didn't deter you either?

nah, its def growing on me esp now that I have it home.

Tom

Waiting so very much on these pics... can't wait! They are so dead sexy!

They dont look so big from the seat, do they?

Well its officially afternoon by any stretch and no pics.

Who wants to do the banning?
