So now I need to fill them so I ordered 2 more HG2s. Still on sale for $7.99 pair.

Doing better than me. I'm researching how to spend more money!

Me and SO have a ratted out GS500 bike in the garage that used to be beautiful and run about 10 years ago and we are now working to bring it back to life. It's going to be my step up bike from the Rebel 250 I'm riding now. (I did mention I got my bike license back in October, right?)

Tomorrow I have an appointment with my neighbor (a big bike guy) where we're going to finish ripping it down to a pile of parts so we can send all the frame out to be powder coated. That'll be a chunk of change. I was thinking a glitter black "graphite" with a couple pieces like the second rider handle and what not done in "snowmobile purple" a really pretty gloss medium grapey color.

Now, I'm surfing ebay for additional pieces and parts I know we'll need down the line like new handlebars and grips, and other odd pieces. Most I'm finding in an anodized purple aluminum that almost perfectly matches the powder coat I'm thinking.

Can you tell I like purple? And I don't like dark boring colors on something that's a small target to start with? There's a reason my jacket is almost a neon purple! I am woman! Hear me roar! See me coming! (Cuz I don't want you to hit me!) :w00t:

Wooo! This mod is amazing. I'm a big boy now! :D I mean the noisy cricket is great, don't get me wrong, but this is just so perfect.

It's a decent mod....much improved over the original, but it is just too darn big and heavy with two batteries in it. During the summer when I was out and had the black one in the side pocket of my cargo shorts, I would find myself slowly veering towards one side when walking.

Did you try the Fuji that I threw in there as well?

No, haven't opened it yet. I watched Vic's review on it to get an idea of what it's about. Seems really interesting, will definitely play around with it soon. :) After your warning I was curious about exactly how spitty the preinstalled coils were so I tried it then promptly regretted it, super hot citrus koolada did not feel good on the chin lol. Got some 1.65 claptons in there now at 70w. It feels about as heavy as the invader 3, so aside from the shape it's fairly familiar in the hand.
