    Winter Mod List

    Some things I did to my 02 Busa while the white stuff was on the ground...

    Perreli Diablo Rossi Tires
    Galfer Rotors/Pads/Braided clutch and brake lines
    New Sprokets (40 rear 17 front)
    Power Commander III USB
    K&N Oil and Air Filter
    Barnett Clutch

    Might be thinking a Northie tech day when the weather is warmer might be in order. I went from a one car to a three car garage. Amazing what a divorce can bring on.

    What? Ok, so um...yeah...

    Anyhoo, a tech day sounds good. I might have a couple of things I need to do to my bike.

    If money permits, I'd like to at least get an FE kit, flush mount signals, new windscreen, and hopefully an exhaust with PCIII.

    Unfortunately, the white stuff is still on the ground. I'll be moving my FZR into the shop, aka my living room, for some winter maintenance.

    Nice Knuckle Dragger. Sahweet.

    John: I have garage space in HR if you want or need it. No need to freeze to death.

    My winter mods were a yellow seat cowl, which I'm LOVING. And new tires from TFOG. I'm ready to play. I would love a yellow belly pan but can't find one for the '05. So sad.

    But I will say: the last Northie Tech Day we did, was pretty darn decent at Scott's. We had bikes, and great bike genius, tools from all over the metropolitan area, and some pretty darn good food for a bunch of crazies. IRDave did his thang, and he's amazing, Joe and DK did their thang, and all in all, more then a few people were not only helped but edumacated. Me being one of them.

    Oh and dogs, we had great dogs too. (sorry had to throw that part in - smoochie smoochie)

    Open the garage and they will come. We can make it however large or small as you would like. Everyone pitches in and it's a pretty good day for everyone.

    So you're saying I need to park the X-Terra OUTSIDE?

    The space is here if you want it John. As always.

    Re: Winter Mod List

    The only thing I've done so far was fix some electrical gremlins...british vehicles and wiring never go well together...

    I hope to get done:
    6 piston calipers/new MC
    1/5 turn throttle insert
    new hides (currently leaning towards PP 2CTs)
    racetech front springs
    get the thing on a dyno to see how its running compared to my previous sea level environment

    ...hopefully my fellowship stipend can afford all this

    No WAY! Aw dude, sorry to hear that man. Well, I'm still in the Lvld/FTC area (soon to be Greeley....) so let me know if you need help or anything.

    Shoot me a line sometime, you should still have my e-mail addy. we can get drunk and tell d-vorce stories! At least with this one there are no kids involved.

    Take care bro.

    P.S. this thread is worthless without pics!
