Damn, good job.
Your hired :grin:

I'm still fitting my MX rear fender.
I think it would of been faster to just make my own mold and inject it.
I couldn't live with how the side plates matched up with the new fender so I welded on some shoulders. Then I shaped the side plates so that the edges rest flat against the shoulder. A bit of novus compound and a buffing wheel and I'm done. I love thermal set plastics. You should see my custom fab'd acrylic saltwater aquarium :wink:

Now, first time I loop the bike I'm gonna cry like a baby! :cry:
I need to remember that this isn't a show bike. I've been spending too much time just looking at it but what I need to do is just go ride.

I tried to insert the images but the site doesn't allow off site image hosting :sad:
Maybe this will work.

Lights, pumps, skimmer, are German. Made a few upgrades as far as Reef Jr aqua controller. The cheap timers were for first wet run and the wires hadn't been routed. Now if it would be self cleaning I'd be set.

We closed our fab shop soon after building the tank. I had enough time to work on my tank and rebuild my track bike after a spill @ reno fernely raceway :doh:
I miss the fab shop

Your templates arrived KDXer!
They are next to my desk at work :doh: I pulled them out and was simultaneously side tracked.
I had a 'big money' day today and I can always feel it afterward(drained).
I'll have to finish up the 2 projects I'm doing (personal) so I can dedicate some quality time to the KDX graphic project. I think I need to step it up a notch on the next sets.

I'll be back on later tonight

I'm still here fellas.
I'm shopping for a toyata tacoma as of this last weekend. Trying to finish some gixxer plastics and pipe guard at the same time. Wish I didn't have to sleep :hmm:

I have viewed 3 different trucks I like so now I need to see who wants to sell me one...

Hey everyone,
I bought a new Nissan Frontier! I test drove the Toyota and Nissan back to back and immediately changed my mind. The Nissan had a sporty feel but the Toyota was just sort of "blah". Both are nice solid well built trucks.

Found one of the only 6 speed, silver, nismo trim off road 4x4's in Northern Cal that was for sale. It's an 06, has only 8k miles on it and paid 1k less than dealer trade in value. Toyota w/ similar equipment (both fully loaded) would of cost me 6K more :neutral:

Now I can go get my KDX dirty :supz:
Well, some day after my anniversary celebration (friday).

Tonight I had to spend 3 1/2 hours doing online traffic school :sad:
Liter class sport bikes are nothing but trouble on the street for someone with my throttle control capabilities. I'll be at the race track on the 25th just to get my fix.

Hey KDXer, I still have your templates and they are very 'useable' so don't think they got tossed or anything like that. I can tell you were very thorough in making them. I hope to start scanning them in after this weekend. Ok, bro?

Maaaaaate, thats more than OK, just whenever you have the spare time is fine with me, no rush. Speaking for myself I can't thank you enough for taking on this project, also very glad to hear the templates are useable. Awesome score on the truck, sounds like a VERY nice unit. :supz:

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY !!!! (for Friday) :partyman:

Remember to stay rubber side down on the 25th and most of all HAVE FUN !! :wink:
