                You can look at the December Kat of the Month if you want to see it. Not much different with all this stuff going on really...... Just detailed stuff.

                  Fix plastics (been sayin that for a couple years now , though )
                  Paint EVERYTHING
                  Bolt on the GSXR1100 shock I bought LAST winter (I'm a procrastinator)
                  SS brake lines , cash flow dependant
                  Maybe put on the new chain and sprockets (if necesarry)
                  Find out why one cylinder seems dead
                  Probably more stuff I'm forgetting , but that's why I wrote it all down somewhere .

                    Maybe a Wiley-co slip on. I'm waiting to see how many riders here had problems with installation and leaks.

                        They wileyco's so far, save for alittle bit of problems with the mid pipe seem to be pretty popular and those that have bought one seem happy w/ the purchase.

                          I will remove the body work, clean it, wax it, wait until after I check the carb sync before reinstalling the body work & buffing off the wax.
                          I don't know how fast my bike goes, I've never stopped to find out.

                            Here is my list....


                            Ride to the Beach at Gulf Shores one weekend. Head over to Orange Beach also.

                            Ride over to Pensecola, hook up with Convict, head to Fort Walton Beach, Destin, then Panama City Beach.

                            Have Convict come to my house, then Head to New Orleans, get smashed, crash at my cousins house, and ride back with a hangover the next day.

                            Oh...... wait, winter is that season you northeners can't ride!!!!!


                            I KIDD!!!!!

                            I want to get the SS lines for my front, maybe the back as well. Get the HH pads for the front.

                            Wet sand my bike.

                            Maybe get the engine cases chromed, I really want my rims and swingarm chromed as well.

                            Paint a few other peice on the Bike Orange as well.

                            Maybe rebuild the forks with race-tech springs.

                            And then Ride to the Beach.
