ummmm.... no
I don't really know too much about them. For now, I have just been going through kneedraggers.
Wish I could set a budget for the bike build but got too many other bills.
Dang car payment, House payment, boat payment, the girlfriend tax, and the $1,200 a month child support. Gonna have to stick with the get stuff when I can budget. Usually time like now, when I'm over seas working 12hrs a day, 7 days a week.
That's your problem right there
Trust me, I'm on a budget as well, and those are the people to talk to This whole build thread is pretty much stuff I've bought from Sherman (babymilo36/shermoto racing), Justin (Agg2001/ agg racing), and Anthony (chiefsmokedawg / Bauce Racing) They're good peeps. I've gone to knee draggers before and bout 95%-100% I've been able to get better pricing (including shipping) from these guys and other venders in the forum (riders discount mainly). If I was ever on the fence about buying something, they pushed me off without doubt. Hit them up for sure. Bonus is their customer service. It's unsurpassable.
Seriously, I should be getting paid for the marketing Speaking of....I had an extra Bauce piston decal and couldn't decide where to put it. Since I already have one on the brake side of the swing arm, I figured I'd thow it on the sprocket side. I realized the bubble under the N after I took the picture and since then pushed it out
Hopefully I'll get my Shermoto / Agg decals this weekend from Nick

I'll be sure to tell them you sent me next time I do any parts purchase. Maybe you'll get a little hook up on more than just stickers...
Dig the pistons
I think my next investment will be suspension though. I swore to myself I wasn't going to buy anything else until I got my bike set up for my big ass. Then...I saw your bike
After that, slicks

decals ftw!!! These guys go out of their way to help. Sherman even sent me a McRib lol. Ant sells ohlins iirc. Not sure on pricing as im too slow to need ohlins lol but im sure his prices are pretty sweet. Everytime I ask for a price its like i just have to throw money at him.
I believe he can hook it up with tires as well. Doesnt hurt to ask.
Edit: I got my S20s from him so I imagine he can do slicks
I think my next purchase will be tank sliders from Justin.
When you back in the states?
Edit2: I have a feeling you'll b purchasing suspension soon lol

I should be traveling back on the 10th. Been here sine Oct 15th... Been a long trip.
For now, I'm just looking to tune the factory components. I'm 6'1 200lbs, not really what Yamaha had in mind when they built this thing
I'm still too slow to need major cash in all new components, maybe just springs and valving. I've been saving my perdium for that

Get your suspension tuned and you're set. I'm 5'9” 200lbs(fat right now) and the bike performs as it should. No need to make major upgrades until you need them... If you're headed to the track, run stock shit until you feel you NEED to upgrade. It'll be a good whike before you're above the bikes abilities... I dropped a few grand building a track bike, and I'm not even close to needing it all... Getting there though... Seat time, track time and tires are really all you need!

Agreed
I'm thinking Catalyst Reaction for tuning sine they operate TrackXperience and offer track tuning at almost every track event. That's the group I tend to ride with anyway...
I've been running the 003's and love them but wanna try slicks for my next set.
Your not fat...your fluffy

That comedian is actually from here... I've got a suit that'd fit you perfect for sale too if you're in the market. Worn three times, practically brand new... If you were in the market/interested. As for tuning, send your ECU to Anthony @ BAUCE Racing. He did mine and several others and does an amazing job! You won't need to have anyone mess with it at the track!
your transition from street to track was quick !! kudos to you. tried chuckwalla one time and wasnt too happy about it. The track was great but the trip was a nightmare. didnt get to enjoy the track coz i was so sleepy all day. I would rather stay close like big willow/streets of willow. have you tried those?
I have read a few post about sending ecu's to him though and am now concidering it. I am running a power commander now with generic map. I've got block-off's, air filter, 06+ gytr slip on, and geared pretty short for outta the hole.
I am actually looking for a deal on a suit. Hit me up with some pics. My suit is a tad too small for me. (short in the middle) I have to hunch over to keep the testies safe

My toy hauer was my best investment. I can sleep anywhere!
Big Willow is pretty sick. very fast track.
I didn't care much for streets. Very one lined and rough as hell. Almost went off under braking when I got too agressive trying to get around a couple of slower riders. Still fun of course, just had a better time at Big track and Chuck.
