Re:TAMPA SVT's scoot 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
Awesome bike! Can't wait to see what you do with the next! I guess I bought my R* a little too soon, otherwise I would be all over this one!

Not to jack the thread, but I have an 08 also and I want to get ride of the left side cover under the gas tank (Like Rich has done). Can someone point me in the direction for a "How-To."

Thanks, guys.

No, but it may have my undivided attention for a few weeks if the R* leaves. Shouldn't take much more than that to get it tuned (just not doing that in the basement). Almost road ready...


Gray:
Check out this link (has another link in there, too). Link

Tucking that fuel pressure regulator up under the tank isn't too hard and you don't have to cut any of the fuel lines. Just takes a little preventative care to do it right. Shoot me an IM if I can help ya.

Only two days left on the auction. High bid is just above $10,000.00 Nearly 2000 people have looked at it.

Link to Ebay Auction

I'm thinking of lowering the reserve tomorrow to make sure it goes.

If anybody knows anybody that's interested, I'd sincerely appreciate it so I can get started on the next one..

Thanks,


Rich

If I knew the bank would loan me that much I would truly consider it...

How much do we have in the RSC fund?

With all the money Doc saved on not paying out for beer, we should be in good shape. Of course, I'm assuming the beer was never bought.

Oh, I'm sure all that money still went for beer...
