Motorcyle goodies for me - Christmas present thread

ontwo · 12-20-2010, 03:12 PM

This weekend we had our first Christmas event. Scored $100 from Motorcycle-Superstore. Just ordered an integrated tail light and some new grips.

What's everybody else gettin?

Spot tracker, I think thats the only moto related thing I am getting this year. I don't really have anything I want. I kinda need a longer gear shifter, but I probably will just buy it.

I didn't have any moto presents on my list. But not that it matters, I don't think anybody got me ANYTHING off my presents list. Usually I don't know what to suggest, as in I don't have a list. I usually just buy what I want so when xmas gets here, I have nothing to suggest. This year I purposely didn't buy some things I wanted, so I could suggest something. WHY? At this point I don't know, cause nobody got me any of my items. A bunch of crap I didn't need or want. Total loss!

That's why I only ask for gift cards

I've already been told that I've got some coming from newenough

Same here.....I usually get what I want myself because I know exactly what I'd like to have....as opposed to that Cliff Huxtable sweater

Got myself several sprockets and a chain set for the RMZ and some boots & helmet for dirt

I'm torn between the GPX laptimer and a Starlane. GPX does everything I want, but a friend of mine that has one picked up fewer complete laps this season than I did with my Ultra-Lap.

Performance-wise, I'm going to continue running my bike as close to stock as possible. The original chain and sprockets may have to go soon though... 15k miles with about 40 track days have started to take a toll on them. On the other hand, I do sometimes wonder what suspension would do for me (about 240's fully geared up).
