Can't decide....

[Michael Wilson]

I can't decide if this is being financially irresponsible or if it's a birthday present to myseld? =)

I just intended to order a 5mm disk lock for my bike but....

I ended up with....

1. 5mm disk lock (yay!)

2. White reflective wheel tape

3. Puig windscreen screw kit

4. Targa FE kit (FINALLY!!!)

Nothing better then spending my birthday working on my bike and my aunts (she rides a harley I know )

Will post pics of my bike when it is completed :steve:

I hope you meant "aunt's" - one of those times where a little punctuation goes a long way

 

[Fizzer6R]

go ahead and spoil yourself, you deserve it

Sometimes you have to pamper yourself. My wife gets a new book and takes a bubble bath.

I order motorcycle parts...



Go on with your bad self!

 

[Michael Wilson]

Happy birthday bro. You know the trick to installing the wheel stripes?

It's not spoiling, or pampering yourself, it is your birthday and it is okay to buy yourself a present or two. I celebrate my birthday for two weeks prior and two weeks after. Tools mostly, but sometimes one big gift. In 2003 it was a bike.
Who else is going to give you exactly what you want?

Nope do a search on YouTube. I wish i would of seen the video I wasted 20 bucks and had to throw the rest away because I messed it up.

 

[Michael Wilson]

You have to treat yourself once in a while, but if you really feel bad. Maybe you should have made #4 for about 10$...

I say just save the headache & have a reputable shop do the wheel tape. A friend of mine had a shop apply pink rim tape to her GSXR wheels and it was $25 (including the tape) and done in like 30 minutes. her wheels look like it's oem paint- nearly perfect. they did an awesome job.
