Enough about that... show us the bike already!!
You're just making us wait in an attempt to build up the suspense for a dramatic unveiling, admit it.

Yeah I looked into it, but it is DOT approved and name brand. A lot of that crap you find on Ebay and other sites isn't even approved or labelled "not for street use". WTF?? I got this one on close-out, I think thats why it was so cheap. I was looking at the new HJC "Crypt" helmet but I can't find one in my size in stock with a good price.

As for the bike getting finished unfortunately I am sitting here in California with my thumb up my ass.
Honestly this course is so easy, slow and boring. All I do is play on the internet all day and STILL max my exams. This could easily be a 2 week course instead of 4.
I had the wife call about my paint, he said his part will be done soon but the airbrushing might take awhile because his guy is working two jobs right now and doesn't have much time.
Believe me no one wants to see this thing done more than me, there are a ton of bikes here and every time I see one I feel a little deader inside...LOL
