I have been in the same boat too and I understand how mods can make your head spin.

LOL It gets you bad! Back in January I was just going to do my front lowers and the caliper as my phase 2, after my bars were done previously in November and the rest is history as they say. hahaha

I completely lost all control, I still wish I had a picture of the OL face when she came out to the garage to tell me goodnight and all that was left of the stand was a frame and motor. Good luck with trying to deal with it, there's no sense in fighting it, just build it!

Theres nothing wrong with being a mod addict as long as you share your progress with other mod addicts on the forum.

Bike's are just like women, U have to spend money on them to make them Ur own so U can go for a ride.

And,,,, It always take more in the beginning of a relationship...

You mean like this?



Yeah, it was the same with me. When I bought my bike, I was like, "I love my bike the way it is. That's why I bought it!" Heh. 3 years later, the only way you could tell it was the same bike was by the color...

My wife was also shocked to see my bike in the above state. She was all concerned and said: "are you gonna be able to put that back together?" Surprised the **** outta her. Problem is, after about 20 years of not knowing I had a handy side, she expects me to fix stuff now...dammit!

Eventualy the only stuff left to do will all cost over $1500 each...at that point it gets easier to slow down. When you start moding over previous mods is when you know you are close to rock bottom...

Hell yeah there is something wrong with it! Especially when your budget isn't enough to support your habit. Then you are really sick and strung out!

I mean meaningless internet shopping, ebay hawking, and full shopping carts...only to never check out! IT'S FRIGGIN TORTURE!

I think the only cure for me would be if I were too busy juggling 3 different young mistresses. Other than that, I'm pretty much doomed to throw money at bikes.
