Now I can't wait to see what you do with it!!

Ive been away, out of town for the past week. Since ive been gone, two-thirds of los angeles has blown away, knocking out electricity to most of the east side, more specifically, knocking out electricity to the painter who is taking care of my ryca tins. sucks, i was hoping to be assembling stasis is death for the last time right now. oh well, i know its going to be worth it - i cant wait.

Turned Down:

Some of you may remember my posting about my busted chucks (http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1304297812/239#239) as a result of the knurled pegs on the ryca rear sets. I love knurled anything but i cant afford to bust my shoes every time i go for a ride; my left chuck now looks more like a sandal than a shoe. to help save my future shoes i ended up turning down the left peg, kissing off the knurled surface Sad

the peg use to look like this:

it now looks like this:

My solution -- heat shrink.

We will all be here waiting for you when the lights come back on and you get back to this. I hope all is well. I've got friends out there myself, so my fingers are crossed...

I left it the way it came, with knurling. It's not a problem since you just step down on it. It's not important to me for them to match.

Is that old stock heavier-than-sin battery weighing you down? Well here's a solution to all your problems. A custom battery box for the light lithium battery found here: http://www.shop.antigravitybatteries.com/Antigravity-4600-8-Cell-Motorsport-B...

Machined from a solid piece of aluminum, these battery boxes will house the lithium battery scene above. The battery box uses the same mounts as the stock battery but gives a lighter faster appeal.

Act fast while supplies last.... and by act now i mean contact me if interested in purchasing one.
