My high school has a program where I can attend a technical college for the first half of the day then go to high school for the rest. The best part is that the high school pays for the technical college.

This friday I installed my yoshi. It sounds so good. It was about 40 F. I took I out for the first time this year. It was AMAZING!
At the end of last year I put a KandN on and my jetting wasn't perfect. I redid it over the winter and it is perfect. The jets are drilled to 110s with 2 washers under each needle. I am so happy. I cant wait for it to warm up as the temp has dropped below freezing again.

ajaygraci · March 9th, 2009, 02:59 PM

maxedpenny · March 10th, 2009, 09:42 PM

IDK yet

OEM Black is winning right now! Then if I ever buy a new fairing or factory painted anything I wont need to get that painted to match.

Right now I cant afford it either. LOL. Last summer I was making 13/hr and had more money than I knew what to do with. I bought a bunch of stuff I didn't need when live cashback was at 25% on eBay. New tablet pc, Yoshi exhaust. Now I am broke.

lol, makes sense, and I know exactly where you're coming from too.
