Picked Up My Bike from the dealer today!
12/24/10 2:07 PM

Hello Everyone

I picked up the bike and gave it a good checking over and all seems good Thank God. That Mirror that looked scuffed in the picture was fine after all. There is a smell of oil when stopped at a light but the mechanic said its some oil that sprayed into the radiator when the original engine exploded...so we shall see? She ran well for the trip home around 25 miles and they said to break it in like a brand new bike because basically its an all new engine. I ended Up paying $6 bucks for an inspection and out the door I went ...Thank God for the Extended Warranty it really paid off in my situation!!! Here are a few pics with the new exhaust Sounds Sick!!!



Thanks to Everyone that Helped out with the good advice during this mayhem!!!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year To One and All!!!

Glad to hear all is well.

There is a smell of oil when stopped at a light but the mechanic said its some oil that sprayed into the radiator when the original engine exploded...so we shall see?

I wouldn't be surprised at all. I ususally smell oil a bit right after an oil change. Especially on the busa where the oil runs right over the head pipes if you don't stick some sot of funnel in there. Still a great bike even if the oil is hard to change. I love 'em both. Merry Christmas, Snuffy!!!!

Thanks Blue yes You are correct thats the Iridium and the fit is slightly off but you can make it work. Me personally I like the chrome version but the chrome doesent let my EZ pass read through it so i changed back to the iridium....I can't stand waiting in line to pay the toll.

Somefun Yes its great having her back in the house I was missing her big ass in my house...lol...and I am liking the looks of my new pipes...Thanks

Thanks Privateer I purchased it after reading threads by U and Scotty on here....Lets hope spring comes quik!! I rode her home the other morning from the dealer in about 25 degree weather and it was to to chilly for my liking to enjoy the ride back home... The Sound is Sik!!!

Happy New Years Guys!!!

Well Snuff..I'm happy for ya that your screen fits"okay".Mine didn't....at least a 1/8th inch gap all the way around...maybe slightly wider.I love the screen...but I aint ridin around with something so "off" as that.I installed some threshold tape(grey) in between the screen and fairing...looked"kinda" okay...but just wasn't "professional" in fitment as I expected.REALLY hard to believe a Co. like Lockhart can't get six simple holes drilled in the right place,and the angle and width of the "lip" is not right either.(where she mates up to the inside of the fairing).Geez....I wrote em and told em about it...did they offer to do anything....nope.Not one peep.NEVER AGAIN!Powerbronze has the identical type screen,in goldish clear like the Iridium.Same deal....they must have used each other's molds to fab their 14 screens!.(can you say "suckah" ).
