I just now realized what I was looking at! That's the bike that Dustin re-did for his buddy, I think?? That was awesome. She really looked so happy, what a great gift.

It was a nice feeling to see how happy she was 
To be fair, I didn't do all the work but either way, it was satisfying

She was like :jaw drop: How kewl! Very nice bike. I think my wife will enjoy an upgrade from her Ninja 250 to the Ninja 650 someday. She's still happy with the 250, but I've told her our 12 year old son will want her 250 in a few years.
I love the color on that bike, black with the metallic red frame. :tup:

That 650 is a great bike, I especially love the motor. I can't say I wasn't a bit jealous after riding it for a few days before giving it away.

Put my brothers exhaust from his 2012 zx14r on my 2008 zx14 as I sold him my Brocks system so I could buy more parts for my turbo build.

The Hawks petcock started to leak when switched to reserve. New petcock, fuel line and filter. Then put 50 miles on her before some rain.

I brought it home
This purchase has taken me a few weeks to pull off. We had some issues with the title and then my bank acted like flat out fools. Kind of treated the seller badly so it took me a while to get it home. In the interim - I picked up a Power Commander used on Ebay for right at $140. I was really happy with the price.
I also bought a kickstand as this is a pure race bike - I did not want to get stuck with using the bike stand by myself. I will remove the bottom section of the fairings and install the kickstand. It will just make it easier to move around the house. Plus it was only $32.
I'm also talking to one of the forum members about a speed shifter. I'm really excited about this mod. All my life I have heard of guys talking about this and most of them say you feel like a God when you have this. I have never felt like a God but I would like to So hopefully this deal works out.
