Rex: Enjoy NYC, but do not, I repeat DO NOT under any circumstances allow Court to show you the "finer dining" spots in Brooklyn! Henrik, on the other hand, is a delightful dinner partner...he drinks. r-t |

Steve: Between diaper changes, would you come down here and detail my bike? I've never been very good at "clean"...nice paint, by the way. Is that "saran wrap" blue over black? r-t |

R-T, not saran wrap..exotic crystals. It's the weirdest thing you ever saw work. Sorry big guy,as much as I like detailing stuff yer gonna have to do your own. I almost got my arse in a sling over spending to much time in the garage the last couple weeks. Gotta go hang with my bud for awhile now |

Rick, I haven't had it out since the transformation but i'm sure the rain would kill it. I plan on making a cover for it. That pre flash for red eye is a real eye opener when your that close I guess. |

Rick--The child has obviously inherited his good looks from his lovely mother. In person, RR isn't the prettiest thing you've ever seen, even when he's not wearing his rubber crawfish hat... Sorry, Steve, had to out you! Tell me more about that color--what brand, etc? r-t |

R-T, I found it poking around on the web one day. Go to www.xoticcolours.com (spelled just like that) and you can see some better pics. There is a store off 610 that sells the product. RR |

Paintballs, available at any Wal-Mart, reloads available readily. Still thinking of adding one for tailgaters for those times I don't feel like speeding to evade them. (Figured out flinging them from my pocket wasn't enough to provide necessary impact to splatter, looked more like a grape bouncing off whatever it was that it bounced off of, not that I would ever do such a thing, nah never, honest.) |

I have an open aircleaner similar to that, I just wrap duct tape half way around the front of the thing if it rains too hard, and keep going. On another note, if anyone wants and aircleaner like mine, I can have them made, around $160 or so. Polished CNC milled aluminum. Shoot me an email if ya want one. Alex |

Road_Thing I know of a starving artist in Baytown that will paint your bike cheep. He painted a buddys hog (tank, f/r fender), black for $100. and offered to do some custom stuff for just $40 more. The kid is real good. |

Skulley, thanks! I might need a paint job on the Norton once I get it all dialed in mechanically. I've got some "custom" bodywork in progress for the S2 that'll need a squirt, too. Ping me offline and let me know how to contact the guy. r-t |

Hi Jody, The bar end mirrors are Napoleons. You can get them from most any motorcycle supply store for about thirty bucks. The blinkers are made by K&S. I found them at a local supply store. Lockhart Phillips has similar ones too, but the K&S ones are supposed to be better. They are surprisingly bright, in fact, I never forget to cancel my blinkers anymore. Timbo |

Hi Chris, Nice bikes! I had planned to do a Thunderstorm conversion on her bike in the near future, but now that the XB9S low has been introduced she says she wants to check one out and see if it fits. That may put the TS conversion on the back burner, but.....I may make the XL into a trick cafe conversion at the same time. We'll see. Timbo |

Timbo, That height problem is always a pain. It's nice to know you can get on ANY bike and be able to touch the ground. I had to lower the wifes Sporty for her so she was comfortable with it. I want her to take my M2 so I can get a new one, but she's not comfortable with it. Pooey! Chris |

Hey Spiderman... I own a glass engraving company. You will have to let me know if you want a set of beer mugs with that spider engraved in them. It would be pretty cool. |
