Definitely not the 848... too much stuff to replace/repair if you have another incident with a dumpster or have somebody knock it over in NY.

Tuition is a pregnant dog.  But you are making the right choice.

1) you get it done cheaper doing it yourself.

2) you learn more doing it yourself.

win win in my opinion.

buy the 848. build it into an 848 streetfighter

He Man

you mean let it rot into a street fighter? The money si going to all be spent anyway. I have tution covered with my summer work ( its only 2500 a semester) so im going to drop as little as money as possible into getting the bike good to go...then tracking the balls out of it.

Maybe you should take the money, sell the bike, and get one of these.

Yeah, but it won't fall over, and that's the important thing here.

This thread has run it's course. Consider it locked.



(I'm auditioning for mod-what'd you guys think?)
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

if you were auditioning for a mod, then you should have used the word consider.

Besides I have the power to lock it.  [evil]

Seriously though that bike just has more surface area to wash when chicken shit gets spewed on it.

I will say this, the 848 is running cheap these days. I dont know why. but they pop up for $8grand from time to time.

If i get a chance to snag it at 7500 or 8000grand i think its worth it.
