    Its been so long since I logged in last I had to creat a new account.  I bought an '02 warrior in in early '02 in FL but I sold my Warrior after hurricane Jean in '04 because it was sandblasted to hell when my garage was blown in.  I moved to Hawaii for 4 years and now Im on my way to Omaha, Nebraska in December.  Yeah big change right?

     Needless to say its been 4 years and I want to get another one so Im back on the forums on the prowl for a decent bike at a good price.  As stock as possible because I got some plans for the bike.  My last project is 99% wrapped up and Im looking towards the future.

     The last project was a fully built Nissan 350Z Twin turbo that has 605hp at the wheels.  The only thing stock on it is the body and some of the interior.  You can say its a mean sleeper.

     

    But I digress,

     Good to be back and wanting a bike again

    An inactive member, Bobo, has a nearly new bike for sale.  He's not much for posting just lurking.  I'll let him know to have a look at this post.  He emailed me yesterday that he's not riding much anymore it has like 4k on it.

    Damn, pressed the wrong key before I finished. How about some pics of the 350Z. How did you get the HP up, Turbo,supercharger, or NOS? As far as finding a bike, allot of members seem to be bailing, so you should have no problem, and the values have dropped signifigantly.

    Belly of the beast

     

    All power was made on 92 Octane pump gas, no other fuel treatment of any sorts.  Its my daily driver, a blast on the highway at night; a B!TCH in traffic during the day.  I have right at $38,000 into the car not including the original purchase shipping, tuning, or any work that the shop did.  Not planning on modding the bike signifacantly, just 280 swing arm 10.5X 10 100 spoke wheels rear 3.5 X 20 100 spoke front, 6 degrees of rake, bomber bars, lowering about 2" or more, removal of the rear fender for a bober look.  Pondering fabing up something to get the Exile Sprocket brake to run on the bike.  With the right spacers all you need is an "L" brace welded onto the swing arm and tab after aligning the brake caliper.  That will clean up the bike a bit.  Not to shure if I want to do right hand drive, dont realy see the benifits with out pushing too much power through the bike.  Yeah you get rid of the extra rotating mass and extra weight, but is it truely worth the PITA to do that?

    The over all look for the bike is going to be some what of a Neo/Retro fat tire bobber, flat black deal.  I have it in my head just not on paper yet.  My previous warrior was more conservsative, just 2" drop, ripsaws and drag bars.

     My original screen name was punisher but the system still had that locked up.  So I go with a derivitive of that, even on most other forms I'm on.

     

    EDIT: Sorry the board messed with my copy/ past of the mods on the car.  Too much of a pain to fix.
