To-Do List

As of today, here's the list of things I want...nay, need to finish by the build-off finale. Must find a lot of time and money that doesn't exist right now! Wish me luck, and if you have anything that I list, LET ME KNOW PLEASE!

For Sure:
Rebuild Front Calipers (01-02 GSX-R1000, need kits)

Front Fender (needed, 1993-02 ZX6E please)
Different bars (would like 7/8" dirtbike style with cross bar)
New Grips
New Reservoir Cover
New Electrosport/Acewell gauge setup
Relocate thermostat housing - possibly entire radiator
New rad hoses and catch tank
Fit (fix) bellypan and trimpiece
Undertail
Rear Signals
Z1000 Exhaust (need canisters, right side only)
Replace right footpeg and mount
Fab battery box for placement under tank
Polish some bolts and/or buy a "Tastynuts" anodized kit
Fabricate/fashion some sort of crash cage/frame slider
Ceramic coat exhaust
Left Hand switchgear (mine has a broken choke lever)
Paint rims/polish lips
Paint/Polish Engine
Paint Fork Legs/Calipers, oil cooler, radiator, bodywork, frame/subframe, bracketry

Umm, now can't anyone come and steal your ideas? Then again, now they're published, everyone will know they were yours first! Maybe you should find a sugar-mama for all that cash you'll be needin' to find! ;)

I love gixers. The Suzuki GSX-R1000's dominance are simple. Sublime, lithe ergonomics and handling, radical styling and full-on usable power. The bikes looks good too. Im thinking of buying one. gonna check out some bike insurance quotes to see how much this beast is gonna cost me to get on the road. then i'll have to sweet talk the wife into letting me have one.
