HAHAHA, will do. I can already see my self throwing my hands up, cussing up a storm, and beating the life out of what ever causes the crash.

I would probably just call the cops get it towed where ever take my insurance money and put it towards a new bike instead of rebuilding it like I did this last time.
 
Isn't it bad juju to talk about crashing before you even finish the bike?

Dude, "you can't have no in your heart"-Joe Dirt
 
nice bike/work, and not to thread jack, but I sent travis nichols a message, no reply, attempted to find his FB, no dice, anyone else have any ideas how to get a hold of him for one of them bad airbox covers?
 
octo! whatap.. i think the scoops are a bit too big for my taste... not sure about "off" tho [smirk] either way, im sure itll look great on x's bike
 
Is it just me or is Travis' airbox slightly.....off?

I thought so to is some of his past pictures, but I doubt they are. Why would he go through all the trouble he did to make it and the settle for close enough. X will know for sure though in the near future though.
 
I hope it isn't off [smirk], I think the pics of it in black primer are deceiving. But I could be wrong, once I get it I will snap some better pics.
 
well creepy but I had to search your FB friends list xtreme, and found him sent him a message. Thank you! and I don't think travis Air box is off, I think it just looks that way based on angle of shot, and lean of bike...
 
Nope, this one is all mine, I could only imagine the body parts laying all over the place of a friend, loved one, or whom ever lays it down, not from the crash but me destroying them for ruining my bike.... If I lay this down hard and do some major damage I might just get up and walk home to leave it there to rot

Completly understand..haha I wouldn't let anyone ride the beauty youve got there. Very good looking, lots of time and money! But would be dwn to meet up with yall n ride sometime once its complete
 
I am hoping to hit up a few bike shows, Moto GPs, and some lengthy cruises. Also having another MI Buell Meet this summer.
 
Hell ya GP here in August. Cant wait..its always bad ass.. cept i ran out of gas last year downtown [mad]. Lucky pops was downtown and could bail me out with a gallon of gas. Haha. But me n some buddy buellers here local would gladly meet up with ya and cruise around and hit Meridian if you plan on attending all the events they have here.
 
I will see I have a buddy who I am planning on riding to the GP with I am not sure on dates. I know one is in Indianapolis.

I owe my "bank" roughly $1200.... I'm not entirely sure what it is that I bought. Lol and that's just from this year.
 
Well little update I got everything wired, fueled, and oiled up. Went to start the bike and all it does is turns over. Got fuel, need to check spark, but other than that everythingbis plugged in all the grounds are solid.

Was my birthday yesterday so I was out and about all day and at my families today, so no real work getting done this week. My air box cover from Travis is in the mail, and my front fairing has the mounting holes drilled but still needs a little work for the headlight setup.
 
Well tried to get it fired up and even though I have fuel to the throttle body I am getting nothing through the injectors. I can't smell gas and I am not getting a spark. Looked for my other tip sensor and need to look a little more going to see if maybe that is the issue.

Otherwise I did a little drilling and sanding to cut the headlight hole I want. Really happy with how it looks. I need to trim down the "ears" and windscreen for the fairing chop before paint. I went with a single headlight for more of a race look. Plus once the fairing is painted (going straight black) the headlight should settle into the fairing becoming invisible I hope.
