[lonesoldier84]

adding turn signals which sit in the handlebars

also adding LCD rear turn signals as i didn't have any at all before now

also swapping out main front fairing for one thats not smashed up

also putting in new front brakes

also putting in new front tire as old one leaking and worn out

also having electrical system fixed as running lights/turn signals weren't turning on

Turn signals are good! Let's see some pics when it's done.

Why didn't you do it yourself? Where's the other 84 things?

 

[lonesoldier84]

i didnt want to mess with the electrical system and since it was going on for that anyway the tire and brakes are quick anyway so didnt add much to labour cost.

as for the pics.....i'll do you one better.....turn signal video those handlebar-end turn signals look snazzy in the box hope they look even better on the bike itself

they were cheap too. the fairing wasnt tho

I think the bike needs to come back from the shop first

i ran out of money

couldnt even give her any gas for a few dark days in the middle there.

dark days indeed....

but things have sorted out for the end of the summer here and the bike is my top priority to get her in decent shape before I put her in the stable for the winter. Anything less would be an injustice for all the joys she brought me this summer... and I'll manage to just scrape by before classes start on Sept. 2

I'd fire the chimpanzee that is my financial coordinator but then I'd be out of a job....

 

[grumpy1luvs2eat]

Yep, lonesoldier84, get'r ready for winter. Glad I moved to Mississippi. The windshield froze one day for two hours until the sun came up. Big change from Ohio. And you got all that work done 1.7 mill? GRUMPY

 

[Hellgate]

okay I really trying to understand this. So you are out of money so you take your bike to the shop for the low, low price of $1.7 million. Hummm....

oh I know it's all good. it's just getting everything organized for full time school is pretty frustrating at times. it'll be worth it though. 2 years I'll be done. Then I will PIMP the FZ6 out....it will be the most heavily modified FZ6 in the history of Yamaha well it still wont hold a candle to Wavex's 3.0..... R.I.P. 3.0
