that $800 went quick

[mrlogix]

Well, I just purchased new brake pads front and rear from Lunatic Fringe. Then went on ebay and bought a 5 pack of oil filters, 5 sets of gaskets and crush washers for the filters. Also bought a new K&N air filter, set of Canyon Dancer tie downs, frame grip pads, bike cover and a front triple tree T-Rex stand and rear T-Rex spool stands. Doesn't take long. Stopping in my local bike shop tomorrow and having a new Michelin PP3 front tire put on to match the rear.

I have a set of trex stands. I love them.

To bad our wallets don't come with free refills. That would be nice.

hey Goose, when you get a chance pm me. Like to see if we can hook up next Sunday (8/2) so I can pick up the parts.

 

[heagachongoose]

Speaking of money disapearing... I finally bought a bellypan dammit! Found one on ebay for $35!

Woo!

 

[mrlogix]

seen it. Been looking at belly pans and mid fairings. I don't think I can get anything to fit without some judiciuos modification. The header Dean put on the bike is a one off and in the way on the right side of the bike. :upset:

 

[heagachongoose]

I'm getting ready to start fiberglassing my fairings. I'm planning on having negatives set up to where I could glass another set of positives out. Send me some pictures of your header setup and I might be able to cook you something up.

 

[mrlogix]

cool, will get some pics tomorrow

 

[mrlogix]

what fairings do you have? The Flexiglass cover to much of the right side of the engine. Talked to Dean and he said they make a spacer to keep it off the exhaust. Really like the SoC fairings, but have a hard time convincing myself it will be okay to cut up a $700 set of new fairings.

It's only money..LOL

 

[heagachongoose]

I have the factory side fairings.

Its plastic man, you can make it do whatever you want.

The flexiglass setup is too tight around the bottom of the engine for the oem dogbone. I have this nasty habit of chopping up everything i buy LOL so it won't funtion the way it was initially made to.

http://www.airtech-streamlining.com/buell/1125R2008.htmLook at airtech's fairing set logix. Very affordable and imo the best looking.

With a little cutting the XB Supersport lower from airtech fits nicely with the factory side fairings. The 1125 pans will not reach high enough.

About the same price as the flexiglass. With camloc hardware you in the plus $600 either way. They are nice tho.

just FYI. Found the T-Rex stands on their ebay store. $240 for the pair, Front triple tree stand and rear spool stand with a free set of spools. Free shipping CONUS.

 

[heagachongoose]

That's where I ordered them from. They came with spool lifts and a swingarm lift. Along with extra spools and lots of stickers! Excellent customer service with them. Ive been looking at their frame sliders.

 

[mrlogix]

okay, so I should have known that there was going to be issues. First issue is because I am a *******. I ordered the canyon dancers tie downs and forgot (duh) that I have bar end mirrors. They have a model that will accomidate them, but that is not the one I ordered. #2, I ordered multiple sets of the o-ring and crush washer kits from an ebay seller named BajaRon if I remember correctly (will verify sellers name when I get home tonight). The price was $4.25 per kit. I ordered 4 and received one. Sent an email via ebay to seller to ask them what happened.

 

[mrlogix]

dammit, T-Rex just cancelled my order and refunded the money. Said they do not have stock of the ordered items. That was actually the order I wanted the most.

 

[mrlogix]

Anybody want to sell some stands?

 

[heagachongoose]

Damn that sucks :/

When will they have more in stock? What do you need them for? I have an extra harbor freight rear stand I usually use on the dirty bikes. I ahould be momentarily done with my trex stands soon. You can borrow them for the time being.

 

[mrlogix]

looked on C-list and may have found a rear. It's out in Beechmont. Told him I would stop by on my way back from meeting you Saturday and take a look and make sure it will fit my bike. Appreciate the offer.

 

[heagachongoose]

1125 swingarms are VERY wide compared to most bikes. Id be surprised if it clears. You could always spread it though. I had to do that with my spare stand.
