Bart, its the T-Maxx's big brother, the Revo. It has a bigger motor and way better suspension and I paid less that $500 for it (truck) then Nitro, battery, charger and tax came to $600 OTD. | ||
| Careyj |
Yeah resale sucks but I sold it for market value to move it. | ||
| Bartimus |
So what are you going to get next? | ||
| Warp2 |
Daytona race party? Sure!!!  March 11 (Saturday) I think it starts about 9am and goes till 230pm. I think. I'll have to check the tv guide when it gets closer. The theater is done and I still have the 65HD as well as the 61SD. Does everyone want me to get the frozen drink machine again. What was that last time... Racing Fuel? Mmmmm.  As usual I have plenty of room for anyone who indulges too much to sleep it off. Gotta be responsible ya know.  The clocks a tickin.  Time to gauge some interest in the party. From there we will figure out how much food and drink and how many strippers to hire!  SPEAK UP!! Who's in? | ||

So what are you going to get next? Its a surprise!!!! I'm leaving soon to spend 3 days in Glamis, my first time there and from what I hear its fun and it won't be to crowded cause its not a holiday weekend. As for the Daytona party I'm there!!!! | ||
| Careyj |
The more I read about them the more I'm liking the new 675's.  | ||
| M1combat |
Do it  . I hear they're excellent . | ||
| Warp2 |
If I were in the market for a new bike the Trumpet would be on my short list. If I were looking for a middleweight bike it would be the only one. | ||
| M1combat |
A Black 12R, a red 916 and that grey 675 are IMO the three best looking bikes man has devised. | ||
| Hattori_hanzo |
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Kobie...remember the D675 was our little secret. No one else needs to know. Feck...who am I kidding? The chances of me getting a new bike are about as good as me making it to Daytona this year.... | ||
| Charlieboy6649 |
If anyone feels like heading this way, probably not, Bufallo Wild Wings is the setting for my Daytona Party. They are putting it on the big screens and over the air. Also, 15% off the bill for race fans and up front parking for bikes... Anyone want to plan to get together on the night of the 18th? I'll be up for the trackday on Sun... | ||
| Jwz7 |
count me in kobie and i'll meet up with you charlie on the 18th | ||
| Charlieboy6649 |
Sounds good Jwz... Where's dinner? I used to know all the good eats I went to Phx so much, but I just don't know anymore. Maybe you could suggest a place. I always like to go somewhere that we don't have in Yuma when I go out of town. (Message edited by charlieboy6649 on March 04, 2006) | ||

Cool. So thats 2 confirmed and one "Feck...who am I kidding? The chances of me getting a new bike are about as good as me making it to Daytona this year...."  | ||
| Wyckedflesh |
Make that 2 possibly 3 if my Brother in law has the time off as well. I will be on the "no alcohol" list as its the day after surgery for me, so atleast 2 of us will be on the dry side of the bar I myself am looking into the 'Prilia SVX420/500 or the Duc' 695 monster...either that or a good Beemer with hard bags for all the roadtrips to cali every month. | ||
| Careyj |
Glamis was a blast!!!! I found a new rush!!!! Got a ride in a $70,000 sand rail with a 500+ HP LS-1 V8, that thing was AMAZING, nothing like doing 100mph across the sand and wheeling down dunes that are 100 ft high and at 60 degree down angle and jumping them dunes catching 40+ feet in the air and going 140 out off them!!!!!

| Hattori_hanzo |
Count me in! | ||
| Snottsdalebueller |

| M1combat |
I might be up for it if my throttle cable gets here this weekend AND I'm not too bushed from being in Daytona all weekend... | ||
| Bartimus |
Where you guys want to meet? I'll be coming in from Apache Junction. What's with this weather? Ain't winter over yet? I'm in Holbrook, AZ this week, and it's been snowing most of the afternoon! We finally had to call it a day, it was too dangerous to be working up on top of the cranes.  I hope the weather is better next week, I plan on bringing the city-x with me.    | ||
| Bartimus |
Hey Carey, I think I've found your NEXT bike!!! I do field service work for my company which requires that I do alot of travelling. While working out in Holbrook, AZ this week, I stumbled upon this bike.  As you can see, it is has the upswept bars, favored by the bar to bar crowd.  From the famous "West Coast"  Looks like a VERY comfortable seat, large wheels, and that upsept, "apehanger" bars. YOU"VE GOT TO GET THIS!!!  | ||
| Snottsdalebueller |
what a great track bike! | ||
| Warp2 |
Sorry for the late post. AMA Superbike Series start at 9am - 1030am. AMA Grand National Series at 1030am - 1130am. AMA Formula Xtreme Series at 1130am - 230pm. I'll probably run to the store during the GN race to grab chow after seeing how many show up. Feel free to bring whatever you want. See you guys tomorrow! | ||

 Doc was able to remove about 50% of the hardware. Turns out that alot of scar tissue built up around one of the long screws and the main nerve, so that screw had to stay and is the cause of alot of my daily pain. Now that the ortho work is done I can now start setting up an appointment to go see a 'Pain Management" specialist. Movement is limited at the moment, mostly cause of the wraps and stitches but also cause it just hurts that much. I am back on Percocett every 4 hours for about the next 3-5 days then it goes to as needed every 12 hours. | ||
| Careyj |
DAMN!!! thats one sweet bike Bart, did you get the # to call so I could pick it up this weekend, ohhhh and thanks for bringing the RAIN Bart. I found a bike already, it's a chopper!!!!  | ||
| Bartimus |
Wycked, do you feel lighter now with all that weight taken out? Carey, no need for the number, I'll just lift it for ya the next time i'm out there. Which will probably be next week. My Phoenix trip is pushed back a week, due to lack of parts. No problem with the rain, how about the snow? It snowed on me in Holbrook, AZ, and now it's snowing here in Albuquerque! So much for riding THIS weekend! | ||
| Snottsdalebueller |
thanks for nothin Bart! oh wait, you did bring rain with you... I made Lisette go on a very short ride this morning in the wet. I was fairly comfortable with all my rain gear on. She didn't fair near as well. LOL Ten minutes into it and I turned around and went home. She was soaked from neck to toe. | ||
| Charlieboy6649 |
Notice the innovative bow shape frame. Known for its rigidity and support. Beautiful next bike for you Carey... I had to teach an MSF class this morning in the rain. Yes, I said rain in Yuma. Thunderstorms actually. It was cold. But we tell our students rain or shine. That is because riders could be confronted with rain at any time. Anyway, just waiting to see if my leave got approved. If so, I'll be there for the March 19th trackday. Hope to see some of you then, either at the track, or for diner Saturday night... |
