Yes, you will, when you finally decide what you truly want to ride.

Couldn't agree more. We all have our "Dream Bike" in mind, and most of the time it dosn't come off an assembly line.


And for us northern folks, you gottahave something to do all winter.

I hope it doesn't end. One of the things I like the best is doing the mods. If I get to a point where I can't do anymore, then I will have to get a new bike and start all over again.

If you keep your bike long enough, you'll likely reach a point where you've done all the mods you want to. Barring a change of heart, you're done. In a way, it's kinda sad if you reach that point, because mods are always something to look forward to, hehehe...

For myself, I'm nearly done everything I want to do to Reaper. All that I have left on my list is a Baker DD6 gearset, braided SS rear brake line, and 21" tubeless 40 spoke laced front wheel (what can I say, I LOVE the classic look of a 21" 40 spoke front wheel!). Maybe a couple of knick-kancks here and there, but that's it for the big stuff.

Cheers!
