Author Message   Tbs_stunta Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 09:36 am:        >>Black looks pretty good, but I think I'm done with black vehicles for a while. Maybe its just dirty, Sanchez.   Tbs_stunta Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 09:39 am:        >>Who has any knowledge of this bike and what would be the expected cost to motard it out? There are a lot of Motard guys on cycleforums.com, the naked section is even called Naked/Supermotard. I think what you spend the most on are the wheels and brakes.   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 09:48 am:        Who has any knowledge of this bike and what would be the expected cost to motard it out? I know there is a kit for the electrical stuff made just for that bike. Matt, the guy that bought my Bandit has about $1200 in his. After the cost of the bike. Baja Designs did the electrics. Buchanan Wheels did the wheels. He said all that would cost a lot less now, because when he did his 5 years ago the wheels had to be special made, because Super Motos were almost unheard of here. Also his wheels are spoke...pricey. He said if he was doin it today, it would cost around eight or nine hundred dollars.   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 09:49 am:        Oh yeah, one more thing. you suck   Black_sunshine Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 09:58 am:        Glitch....Don't worry...I might let you ride it.....just kidding. Its too early to tell if it will actually happen. All my buddy said was that he will be selling it in the near future and I will be to first one he calls to buy for cheap. I think it would be a kick a$$ project. Guess I will need to figure out how to tell Chrissy she cannot be parking in the garage anymore.   Black_sunshine Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:17 am:        Here is a gallery of converted 450s http://www.macmoto.com/gallery.php   Stealthxb Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:17 am:        (mouth is watering)   Road_thing Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:18 am:        Black 'shine: Here's a couple of data points: I sent Buchanan's the hubs off my xr600 and they laced up 17" rims for about $400 per wheel. Try Baja Designs for a "street-legal" light kit. Probably around $400. rt   M1a65 Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:23 am:        Dave, Cut the lock and tell their sorry asses to bring another lock with them next time they read the meter...   Sanchez Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:23 am:        Anyone looking for a DR? http://atlanta.craigslist.org/mcy/157226186.html I met a guy last night at the V you should talk to about lacing wheels. He goes by "Frosty."   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:37 am:        Cut the lock... I would have if I had thought of it. Ann's aunt lives around the corner so we all had showers and such. I will if it ain't back on when I get home.   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:53 am:        B_S, you got gmail!   Missbehavin Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:55 am:        BA, any thoughts about Daytona Beach?   Braveangel Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:02 am:        Never been there so i guess i don't have any thoughts on it?   Braveangel Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:03 am:        I've only been to Mrytle,Panama city beach an Virginia beach!   Missbehavin Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:06 am:        Myrtle is pretty much booked, Panama is outrageous. I've only been to Daytona a couple of times, but dont remember much about it. My favorite beach is a little too far away for a weekend trip. Is there anywhere else that you want me to look into? I cant believe you actually have that weekend off!!   Bambi Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:27 am:        Depending on what you guys are looking for, Tybee is only 4 hours away. Very small beach but River street is fun at night. It is great for just a quick get away.   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:33 am:        I'm with Bambi.   Missbehavin Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:34 am:        Is the beach nice?   Kdan Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:37 am:        Sunshiny - Last time I looked (January) the DRZ-SM was $5700. The DRZ was about $5400. The basics to legalize and motard a regular DRZ was about $1700. That was from Suzuki. So if you're buying new...That's just silly. Now I know you can probably get wheels and shocks and lights and brakes and stuff cheaper than $1700, but it won't be as easy as buying a new one. Now if you just want a dirtbike for the street...You're in!   Kdan Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:42 am:        Is the beach nice? M_B It's an Eastcoast beach and it's OK, but small and not the greatest. It's definitely not Gulf Coast quality. But I usually only see the beach from the water. It's not as crowded with young hotties as PCB and the partying is sub-par, but if you're looking for decent sun, peace and quiet and some excellent kayaking, Tybee is excellent.   Missbehavin Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:44 am:        BA, what type of weekend are you wanting to have? Restful and relaxing, or bringing back spring break days - that REALLY makes a difference in where we go. Especially given what Kdan said about Tybee.   Braveangel Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:47 am:        I've been to Savannah but not Tybee island! Look in to Daytona an how long would the drive be?   Black_sunshine Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:52 am:        Glitch...awesome! Can I get to it when I get back on Monday from the beach? Thanks fro the Motard info guys.....I think I'm getting ahead of myself. I need to stop looking around until I actually get the 450...if I get the 450.   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 11:56 am:        439.9 miles 6 hours 41 minutes per mapquest   Ratyson Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 12:00 pm:        B_S.. One word... Aprilia.. it's comes streetable. It is due out for 2007. My buddy Mike (The one you may have met at MBIII on the older beat up ZX7) is planning on getting one when they come out. http://www.apriliausa.com/njb_dettaglio.asp?id=329 http://www.apriliausa.com/modelli/offroad/modello.asp?id=111 (Message edited by ratyson on May 05, 2006)   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 12:01 pm:        Can I get to it when I get back on Monday from the beach? Feel free to join in the fun whenever you like. Have fun at the beach with your wife! You do remember her right?   Bambi Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 12:42 pm:        and the partying is sub-par That all depends on who you go with! There are a couple of small pubs on the beach and they have stuff on the pier sometimes but River Street in Savannah has more bars and such. Kinda reminds me of a tiny bitty New Orleans and Tybee a tiny bitty Panama City. I liked it cause I could leave right after work, still get there at a decent hour, play all weekend and not have to head home until mid after noon on Sunday and STILL get back in time to relax a little and not be worn out for work on Monday. Other places may have more but they are so much further away it made it just not worth it for a long weekend. Hell, I use to pack up and go alone and STILL had a good time. Course I like Historical Places and just laying on the beach. With the 2 of you guys together, I'm sure you could turn it into ANY kind of week end you want down there. Oh, and did I mention it wasn't far from the Military (young and usually physical fit young men, wink, wink)base?   Glitch Posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 12:53 pm:        Can I get to it when I get back on Monday from the beach?
