Nah, I am looking for a race ready Evo.

Too bad you snoozed, you could have a really nice one. Although, I am sure the new owner will probably trade you straight up...lulz

roybfr · 07-10-2009, 05:57 PM

I wonder if the new owner would trade for a Vespa ET4, all the chicks love it. Will throw in blown 350 too.

Thanks!

I will bring the British Pre-Race and the F1 Race as well. Pre-race for sure... the race itself may be difficult. Just make sure DVR is good to go!

Yes I bought a used ET4 for my wife. Its an 01, got it on the cheap, not just vespa cheap. It is really not bad, fun to ride but I am sure I look goofy on it in full gear. I got rid of my FJR1300 and got an 07 FZ1, all black with gold forks. Great bike... but aren't they all. I will snap pics and post them up. 3 different bikes in one year.. you should be proud of me KC.

Bought a new motor and transmission for the 69 vette (383 w/ 6 speed T56). We have been working on the car, pulled one of the valve covers off and found a rocker arm laying there and another looking kind of bound up. One broken push rod, half of it in pieces in the oil pan and another bent. Luckily the cam was not damaged and at first glace nothing got in to the combustion chamber. A rodder friend of my dad that owns a shop in Spencer is going to install the new motor and tranny in trade for the old motor and 4 speed M-22 that is in there now. On a more positive note we got the E brake installed (total PITA), head lights, tail lights and turn signals now function. A crap load of wiring that went no where removed, rehooked up some of the gauges (yeah gas), installed a new steering wheel (old one bent), got a under door sill plate installed on the passenger side and finally got replacement front wheels for the front as the original ones were to wide and rubbed. That it's...

And on a BMW note.... still don't own one. But a BMW motor cycle may be in my future.

Troy - FZ1 is hawt. I like the new ones a lot - glad you got rid of the rid of the FJR1300 and got something a little more respectable...

Cool

It's been far too long since we've had new programming to mention on Discovery HD Theater, and far too long since World Rally Championship action has been broadcast in the U.S., so it's good to hear that the two are coming together this October. Expect weekly coverage from every round in the championship in 1080i and 5.1 surround of 4WD turbocharged vehicles rocketing down narrow off road routes plus "a range of other content." Those familiar with the series can attest to the beautiful locales WRC finds itself in, and should look great on our HDTVs this fall. That brings nearly ever racing series into high definition, except For 1 notable exception.
