  1. The bike is still for sale. I just put it up last week and left town for a week to visit family in Phoenix. I live in Centennial. You can reach me @303-521-2298

  2. I live in Denver and am interested in your bike. Is it still for sale?

  3. Where can I get a stator for the bird. Seems all websites only carry 97'-98'.
  4. Jeff, I went with the black texture, and the color matched the frame very well in most all light. True, the arm was textured and the frame was not, but in photos and real life, it worked very well fuckyouverymuch. Hey Now. I went with the flat black powder as well. It looked close but I'm rather particular so I then painted the frame, swingarm, footpegs, shifter, frame plugs, brake lever, and shock dogbones to match. Flat black paint covered with a matte clearcoat made it all match nicely. Nice exhaust huh Jer? Where did you get the tail section from? Looks sweet!!!!
  5. You can try some polishing compound. If the scratch is too deep, then use some very fine grip wet-sanding paper to take the edge off. Then buff it out with polishing compound.
  6. Have had the same setup since day one with a K&N airfilter on a 2000, I get 36-39 mpg. I'm in Denver so everything runs rich due to lack of oxygen.
  7. How about this: http://www.webbikeworld.com/r2/joe-rocket/sahara-vest/
  8. I'll check the airbox and see if thats where the hose is loose from. Thanks.
  9. Right after I shut down the bike I get a strong gas smell. I checked for leaks under the tank and there are none. Its a 2000 so all the gas lines are under pressure. There's two vent tubes coming down in front of the rear tire. The thicker one goes right up to the bottom of the fuel tank. The thinner one goes up under the tank area and isn't attached to anything. Is this my problem? It wouldn't be doing any good not attached. I know I'll get some gas fumes off the exhaust, but this seems to be coming from under the tank area. Anyone have a clue?
  10. Close, but with less of a paycheck. I work as a hyperbaric tech at a hospital, and have been an EMT/FF for the last 6 years. My wife was trained in the hyperbaric chamber when we lived in Chicago @ Lutheran General Hospital. Where you from?
  11. Yeah, the cheapo ones are pretty dim. I noticed these on another bird, and was impressed with how much brighter they were than even the stock rear turn signals, so I dropped the cash on them. They're $40 a pair, and made of metal instead of the cheap black plastic $40 is nothing if they're bright and noticeable. P.S. you must be an E.R doc or RN if you go by OrganDonor. The wife's an RN.
  12. I just measured carefully so they were even on both sides. Drilled the holes for the wires and screws. I can look at the specific wire colors for you if you need it. I just used a volt meter and tested for the hot lead. It took me about 20 minutes to do. I used to do car audio and electronics for a living, so drilling holes and tapping wires is not a big deal to me. It might take you longer if you're not used to doing this stuff. I know someone with those small led signals, and he doesn't like them because they aren't as visible at night. My biggest fear on the bike is getting hit from behind!
  13. I've seen them in the rear vents. Like the way they look also, didn't like the lack of visibility from the sides though!
  14. I did it to mine and shaved the plastic in the back so the holes left were removed. Here are some pics. If you have any questions on wiring, let me know? [attachmentid=2405][attachmentid=2406][attachmentid=2407]
