Yeah, where do you live, Skuby?
I've got quite a few people that I probably wouldn't otherwise talk to I guess I look at them as, "contacts." Life is networking!
Surely you've got something to sweeten the deal?
OFF-TOPIC: Back when I was working cable, I traded services for work all the time, man. We did digital phone work as well so basically if you had any problems with your tv or phone I was the man...
Wonder how much stuff I gave away? Lol...

Dang man - didn't see the update! Looks great! I wasn't sure if I wouild like it based on that picture above with the red pin stripes - but I think the reason I didn't dig that one too much is because it doesn't have the black decal on the tail to break up the white.
LOOKS GREAT! Not sure about the red pinstrpes, though.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of the pin stripes myself either. Thanks for all of the compliments too! I've got a friend in photography, so I'm going to see if he can get some decent pics of me doing some turns whenever we're both available on a nice day.
And for the guy who said it was too expensive, just shop around a little. You might be suprised! I think mine were done for $70 a wheel. However, what racked up the expenses for mine was how much the shop charged for mounting/dismounting tires and pushing out bearings. It's worth asking around and getting quotes though! My bike is definately getting more attention now....

Yeah, I thought about the hugger. Just didn't know if that would be too much red....
Also, if anyone has a BLACK or RED/BLACK micron that they want to trade for a carbon one, then let me know. Or if someone wants a red ART exhaust. I'm still looking for that perfect color combo for the back end of my bike.

I'm in San Diego, CA. I've gotten a few quotes and they're all just a bit over $300. One guy asked for close to $500. I gave my search after that.
Not much to offer to sweeten the deal other than a box of donuts.
BTW, I've asked on another thread, but you guys know the color code for the white on the 2001 Erion??? Yea, I got the color code in the trunk, but it only covers the black.

Yeah, I agree with the black exhaust and red hugger idea as well. I've passed on a couple huggers lately, but if I can find a good exhaust, then I'll pic one up.

Just to throw the idea out there, I think it would look sexy as hell in the front if it was
all white (remove the blk sticker above headlight)
I tossed the idea around on mine for Months before i finally took it off and loved it!
