Yeah Ive noticed! I was originally shopping for another set of 02-03 R1 forks, but Im finding 04-06 forks with radial brakes for the same price and more common than 02-03 forks without brakes. And 07-08 complete front ends are everywhere for like $500. Its more than I can spend right now, but SOO tempting. I need a project to work on. This cold weather is making me antsy.

If I were rich, I would buy a nice house, but not huge, but on some land, then I would have a custom built shop out back. With a room with tools and lifts just for bikes, car lifts, full service tools, mezzanine, and a multibay storage room for cars trucks and bikes. Id keep building stuff: bikes, cars, 4x4s, buggies. Maybe even try and start a business out of it. But building them is what I enjoy most, so thats what Id spend most of my time doing I think.

i actually put some thought into this if i was to win the lottery i was going to but a bunch of land just over the nh border theres 100 +/- acres and i was going to build a race track and maybe a 4x4 course and hold races etc. also devote my time to helping others, it sound cheesy but i think id enjoy it gives me something to do and makes others life easier dont know how maybe auto repair or teaching people how to help themselves. everyone can do anything but most dont know how so knowledge is the greatest gift

Don't complain to me unless you can offer a solution too.

Whenever things go to sh*ts and don't go the way you'd like, I blame it on the fact that "the world is ending."

Chefen,
you are supposed to put the cigarette out before hoovering up the butt and setting fire to the vacuum's contents.
