So I just got to San Antonio and should be staying here at least 3 yrs. Who's the reputable dealer yall might suggest for these parts? While passing through Dallas and visiting some family I stopped in at DallasHD to have them look my ride over and or have my TPS reset. Fantastic service and pricing. However, now she idles low and consistent but back talks and or fires like a mofo..? And the tech that spoke with me said it has an intake leak of some sort. Idk what all that intails or the cost involved in repair but that aside she still runs like hell (the good hell) any input is always greatly appreciated.

Try this thread:

It's the Storm Fronts, Austin area and such seems closest to you from the map, since there's not a Storm Front section specific to San Antonio that I could see. There's some good folks with a wealth of knowledge posting there so you'll be in good hands.

Thanks brother we'll see how it goes. Not to sound ungracious like I can't take a compliment...but...the red stripes are gone. The fella before me put them on and it seems my 4 yr old could have done a better job, while they looked ok at a glance they were kinda all over and had been done with pin striping like you'd see on the side of a car. however...thanl you

Ha, i'm always surprised when someone is up when I am. Speaking of which, i have a rockstar in the freezer i need to go drink. Gotta put in a few more hours yet. Anyway, sloppy details should be dealt with severely, better to have them off then. But yeah, at a glance they do look sharp. I kinda liked the thin line stripe there though.

I got a retro-reflective stripe kit from Tapeworks graphics and put them on my tuber's wheels very carefully... off the bike. I'm partial to red stripes I guess (they look orange in the profile pic due to the flash).

One of these days I'll probably get black, or white rim striping for my XB for better night time visibility, they really jump out at you when lit by headlights.

Hope you find some folks local to you. Be safe brother.

Yeah I used to have some reflective strips on a ZX6R that I fightered out a few years back and yes they def grab your eye. They just look gray under normal conditions. I really liked them and I'm all about being seen and heard so as not to get ran over. I'll prob get some more...I never thought about doing the wheels with them, but thats brilliant brother thanks for burning the candle at both ends with me...
