they look pretty nice in person. kawi is great at making decent looking streetfighters. and its a comfy bike. i really want a supermoto type bike, basically a dirtbike on street tires. it would be so much fun!
Nah...I gotta have that fairing...that is cool looking but it just seems weird. If I was gonna go that route I would just get the Versys.

the versys is just an uglier ER6N though. lol. look at them in person, they get sexier. kawi makes some amazing looking streetfighters compared to most companies. know what bike i really want for some reason, its (forgive god me for i have sinned) a suzuki.... EEEEEEK!

One of the things I did today was to drain and then drop the gas tank from my 280Z. Once that was out I could remove the rear bumper shocks. Anyway man that gas smelled so bad. It all came out, but looked really clear, and I can't describe what it smelled like. Obviously though it had gotten water in it or something. The car doesn't have a gas cap anyway so probably had a fair amount of rain water in the tank to begin with. The gas while draining though didn't look like it contained much if any rust/dirt, so that's a good thing.

I replaced the water pump, timing belt, and tensioners on my pop's Toyota Camry today. Then I started working on a jib crane for my video camera.

Should end up looking something like this:

I have both PS3 and 360. So I'm hoping we'll see a Gran Turismo 5 announcement coming up during Sony's presser. The game looks pretty good graphically, still looks a little under GT5 Prologue in my opinion. Anyway during that display they called it the "Definitive racing game of this generation" and they said it about 12 times.

lol ok....well gt5 i heard was gonna be kinda dull tho. and bleach...i sorry man but u gotta play it. i didnt till i went to school and it actually is pretty fun. every little adjustment you make to your car actually affects it. You can make minimal changes such as 1 psi in tire pressure. brake ratio, adjustable air dams, spoilers. It is really quite fun.
