Neil's New '09 Firebolt

[neilrl79]

Fired it up and rode about 50 trouble free miles so I'm assuming that I was correct that the rough running the other day was a direct result of starting and shutting it off multiple times Sunday.

I love this bike! I can't wait till nice days are the norm and not an unexpected treat.

Passed my MD state inspection today even with the illegal windshield(inspectors words, not mine). LoL

When I got home I immediately removed all the reflectors and belt guards!

Waiting at the MVA for my number to be called so I can get my 2 year stickers.

Installed some NGK DCPR9EIX plugs and readjusted the suspension settings today, then went for a nice little ride.

In the last 2 weeks in have ordered an HID kit from DDM Tuning, 2010 Buell LED tail and tag light from Surdyke and some cheap(and most likely temporary) led turn signals from eBay.

The HIDs and Turns are coming from China so I'll see them between now and July and Surdyke expects my order to ship by the 26th. I HATE WAITING FOR DELIVERIES!

 

[neilrl79]

These are the turns I bought.... $10 for a set of 4 shipped, how could I lose?

So I installed my HIDs, 2010 LED taillight, and my $10 Chinese Led Signals today. The HIDs and taillight are great but the turns are horrible! I hate them almost as much as I hate the stick signals. I left them on for now, but that will be replaced very soon!

Got some new gear! An Icon Hooligan Street Jersey and matching Icon Hooligan Gloves. They are light weight mesh and flow a ton of air! Not super hardcore protection but definitely safer than the T-shirt I went down in in August.

Wow I really take it for granted here in SD. No inspection of any kind. Almost anything with wheels can be street legal. I need to find a CR500 and make a supermoto out of it
