Well I finally think I found the one I'm rolling with. Going to meet the seller within a week to close the deal when our schedules coincide. Its a 2007 with about 6500 miles that has been parked for some time. I will be riding it home and replacing the plugs and changing the oil at that time. Are there any good how-tos that you guys can link me to for these procedures? I am fairly new around here and dont navigate the site too well yet. Thanks for your help

Im also going to look to start cosmetically modding it right away with some carbon fiber bits, painted cowl and such. Is british customs pretty much the place to shop or are there other places I'm not aware of?

I will also be looking to pick up the +09 arrow slip-on and a K&N filter which should do it for performance mods. Its fast enough as it is.

Super excited to become a member of the family. Thank you for your help and insight!

thanks, how do i search for best places to shop? I figured that was an answer from the people who shop.

tj at ridersdiscount (forum sponsor) has unbeatable prices on most things; if you're in the market for something, its worth asking a price on his threads first, also check stg and cycle sector, they got some great deals too. british customs has a pretty good selection, but if you're a penny pincher (like I am) maybe not choice #1

if you're looking for CF bits....you can also check with BestemUSA and our own forum member NJCustom (he makes carbon fiber tank sliders, etc)

Bestemusa has great prices! A little too good, whats the catch? Chinese carbon fiber? lol

They're made with tears of clubbed baby seals :thumbup:

LOL, seriously tho whats the deal, is it just of a lesser quality than the stuff on British Customs?

They were very nice to deal with when I purchased my tail section. I'm fairly positive they're in house since they modified the tail to fit the taillight at my request. It was a very quick turn around.
