That.
Yeah, luckily I think I'm near the end of all the "looks" mods.. did the suspension, so that's the first mechanical (not including exhaust and intake), and I'm waiting until I get a lot more miles on my engine before I tear it down and put in a 107" kit or something along those lines.. it just bothers me seeing it sitting in my dining room for months on end while I can't be out riding it (even though we just had several days in a row where it was over 55*..wtf).. so i MUST tinker with it..or just clean something, or take something apart, clean it, adjust it, then put it back together...must tinker with it..must tinker..
on the bright side, without including this year's powdercoating bill, i'm only about $2,700 in to mods.. made out like a bandit with most of it between sales and giftcards and such..

Think its more like being Hooked on crack...
I've only got a little over $6k in mods and don't have wheels or the 103....
And most people cant even see it...
Many, Many nights I just sat in the garage and stare at her thinking what to do next.... course have a JB and coke while doing it helps me dream.

what sucks is knowing what MOD you're ready to make, but you're short on funds
every time I see my bike .... aaaarrrg! that HAS to be changed! HAS TO ... ASAP!
my pipes SUCK ... I tell you ... they are crap!
and I didn't think that 6 months ago!

I used to tell my wife, thats it now after this part (knowing for well it wasn't!)
But now I've got to the stage where I tell her the same & think its true myself, until I see or think of something else? Got 'me' wondering now will it ever end?
