Introducing Loki's new baby!

[Loki]

I know, I know, its been to long for me to do this but i wanted to get good pictures and get all my mods done. Well i still have neither... lol but i figured, if i get all my mods done at once, how can i show off my progress???? So i took some pictures today for the fun of it. Going to have a gopro later this week so videos and new pictures.

Nice looking bike Loki! I myself am thinking of trading my race can for a D&D.
looking forward to the bods you apply.

 

[DustyXB]

Looks good Loki. I wish i had a d&d honestly. I like my jardine but i want something with a little more body to the sound.

 

[BuellGaza]

More like Diabla Negra! than red

 

[Bolty]

Very nice bike[up]

 

[Loki]

I love the red so much more on this one. And the D&D makes a world of difference. Power wheelies are so easy and ive started to get some clutch flick wheelies in second but with the giant stock levers, its alittle harder for me. So excited to get everything done and also do some films and pictures. Expect a wheelie picture very soon .

Funny little story. I was just getting use to the bike and the extra power doing small wheelies. I cam to a stop sign, stretched my legs, left them in front, got bored, powered on... front came up unexpectedly with my legs still out in front. Let it down (going down a hill) as a car was coming. I was embarrassed as i thought i looked silly. But the car drives by and gives me three little honks like saying "Bad ass!" And my buddy tells me i looked bad ass when i did it. Lol "Loki- Makes wheelie mistakes, looks bad ass doing it"
Now im to scared to do it again! Lol

I would delete what type of alarm you have just to be on the safe side. If you know the type of Alarm it is you can learn how to disable it very easily. Nice bike! Sound clips??? I love D&D's

 

[frostedflakejake]

haha I REALLY thought you and your significant other had a baby. haha

 

[Loki]

I am alone... Thanks for reminding me frostedflake! D:!
lol

and jobe, i understand your concern but i cant edit it anymore and i trust everyone on the site. Plus to disable it you would have to set it off first and i have the bike within hearing and seeing distance. She isnt going anywhere this time! (I pray)

 

[claytucc3]

I love the way my D&D sounds and I haven't even had a chance to ride it....lol. It sounds like you have your bike well planned out. I too want to ceramic coat my header. It is ugly as sin right now!!!!!!

 

[Loki]

Heres a bad picture of the lights. I cant wait till i get something to take better pictures!

 

[BuddhaBuell]

looks great Loki [up]
ride on brother

 

[frostedflakejake]

Well since your single, be glad then that you didn't get someone pregnant

 

[Loki]

A few more updates. Added halo themed lights around my headlights and broke my eyelets so just removed them completely. Im still unsure about the lights but here they are.

Also go in some ASV F3 levers today. Put those on and had a new experience. Turns out the ebay listing for the levers was wrong and so when i installed the brake lever it was pushing the brake already. And i didnt adjust my clutch lever perfectly so it would barely engage. Well anyways i went to show my friend. I noticed sitting there that my brake lever would barely pull in and i just thought "Man these levers are tight" well he was taking to long so i decided to leave. While turning around my bike was acting weird so i thought it was my clutch and id go back and adjust it. Started up the street and my bike keep getting slower and slower, id give it more gas thinking it was trying to come out of gear or something. Then my front end started sloping down, and down, then it hit me. My lever was so tight because it was locked up on me. Well there i was sitting in the middle of the street trying to take off my lever. Got it off, then my clutch stopped grabbing at all. SIGH
Figured out i should grind my brake lever down so it didnt apply ANY pressure when attached. I tired to adjust my clutch and i kept failing, so i gave up on that for a bit. At this point my friend was by and he gave it a shot and fixed it for me. So i fixed my brake and he fixed my clutch. Now i would get to enjoy my levers but i became pretty worried about them and figured they wanted to kill me!
Though after riding around for a good while, the levers are working amazing, look amazing, and feel amazing.

P.S for anyone wondering, there is hardly ANY vertical play in the clutch lever. I have a video showing this if youd like me to upload it.

P.S.S sorry for typing a book. Thats only have of what my day was like. My friend had a interesting day as well. Lol

I have a pretty bike

Tomorrow im going to cut up and re angel my license plate bracket. Planning on posting pictures of that too if you guys are interested. Thanks for looking!

Are those the gel thick grips? Do you like them?
I'm looking to replace my stock ones and wonder if it's a big difference.
Thanks.

 

[Loki]

Yes they are, and i f***ing love them! They are so comfy and provide such a good grip. they are amazing. Get them. I had them on my last bike and liked them so much that i bought them for this bike and my friend is thinking about buying some for his bike as well.

 

[claytucc3]

I am not sure on those headlights either. They are definitely different though....

 

[iman501]

headlights are different, that is for sure!!!.....i like the LED's Dave (or whoever it was) did on their bike though!

 

[Loki]

Ya, i wanted to do those as well and still might, but was having trouble with the LEDS. Ill end up changing it im sure.
