faxeman · November 30th, 2011, 11:30 AM

thx!!! :P
i'm from Genova an old seaside town where you can reach the mountains in 10 minutes on twisty roads

how i can upload photos??? LOL

saxnbass · November 30th, 2011, 12:14 PM

Host it someplace like Flickr, Photobucket, etc. and then use IMG BBcode tags.

Genova is a nice place, I've been through that area a few times, though didn't stop in it. I spent about 8 years in Vicenza, other side and not quite as far north.

Welcome brother, your English is better than many born here and millions who refuse to learn it. From a beautiful country with such wonderful cars and motorcycles it's great you picked a ninjette like us. The best street 250 there is, and you bought used which is best. For headlights just change your bulbs to Sylvania SilverStars. If you want expensive mods there will be plenty of suggetions for you, just ask more specifically for exactly what your thoughts/needs are. Peace out, happy trails!

Welcome Faxeman, Visited your country a few years ago when my daughter lived in Livorno for a year. Beautiful country.

Saxnbass, you didn't happened to be stationed at Vicenza? My son in law and daughter where stationed down at Camp Darby.

Here's a pic from their apt balcony. How much would this apt. view cost back here in the states.

Thanks!!

in my country people are used to follow/buy only the most fashionable thing so a cheaper bike isn't cool to ride so it's much better overcome a ducati in the middle of the curve or a T-max in the traffic with my little greenie...
Mods now i'm on the verge of buyin' an homemade silencer and later on clip-on and foot peg

Welcome, my friend!

saxnbass · December 2nd, 2011, 12:33 PM

I'm looking at clip ons and rearsets right now too. I've pretty much decided on Bohemian Racing rearsets, as they look nice, seem quality, are adjustable, and only about $280. I was going to get Woodcraft clipons, but my mate that has them says that there are a pair that are more adjustable with positioning that'd he'd recommend instead of the woodcrafts. He said he thinks they were the Driven, but he's not 100% sure on that; anybody happen to know?

i just discovered an interesting site
http://www.club517superbike.com/cust...10-4187-1.html
where i can buy rearset and much more seriously the preload cap for forks!! they have a very low price but i'm afraid of import taxes and transport.
Someone knows how to import???
