Quitters- soon ghosts to us (selling/sold my DSM)

[EclipseTrbo420A]

haha well the cruiser is for sale at an insane price with under 300 miles on it! As for my bike I love it, first day was amazing. and for the gear, it will be on the way. I was just going up and down the back roads here cruising. I think Ill be ordering an "Icon" jacket I kinda like those ones the best.

Ill be buying a N/T here soon for winter and just taking it easy. Thanks for the complemetns.

Oh and the yellow....best color this bike comes in with all the decals removed.

 

[EclipseTrbo420A]

This one for sure.

Surprisingly, A LOT of my car/dsm buddies just sold their pride and joys for a bike

I was riding on my buddies CBR 929 today...Yeah, I was on back so I felt kinda queer, but man Im thinking about getting a bike now also, and this was something I NEVER imagined I would do

The experience is completely different, thats for sure

 

[nice97civic]

nice bike. i love cbr's. just curious, how tall are you? im looking into getting a bike and you seem to look fairly comfortable on your bike. i know i know, go out and sit on one yourself, but im asking anyway. have fun and be safe

 

[EclipseTrbo420A]

Im 6 foot and about 6'1" with those shoes on...I am comfortable on there. After sitting on the GSX-R the R6 and some Kawasaki's I was heart set on a CBR. So I made it happen. Ill have another DSM one day thats for sure, but after 5 years in the same car its time for something different and this sure was it.

 

[Thomas91169]

This one for sure.

nice choice!

 

[RipperXX]

Nice, I have been wanting a CBR 600RR for a while. But can't spare the cash. Plus in Lawton I would get ran over.

 

[8urv8]

I wouldn't get a yellow jacket with a yellow bike. It's just a little too much yeller for my taste. To each is own but thhe bike is very nice nonetheless. I used to have a cbr 929 that I owned for abot two years. I had a blast on it but had to get rid of it due to not having enough sense to not ride wheelies whenever I got on a long straight road. Man I miss that thing!!!!! The day will come when I have another one.

Congrats on the purchase and be carefull. It doesn't take much to go down and rub your skin to the bone.

 

[RedTurboEclipse]

Nice bike! I think yellow is fine on sports bikes the integra type r that came with phoenix yellow stock, and ferraris and other exotics. I like the bike, I reallyl ike the RRs.
But yea I wouldn't wear just shorts.

 

[FreStylMotoX01]

Make sure you get leather for your jacket. Textile/mesh ones are likely to melt to your skin making your injuries worse if you go down. With leather you will slide and be less likely to have road rash.

2003 cbr600rr was the best engine honda ever put in chose 600s... I love them!

 

[housegsx]

Nice bike! I'd like to pick up something like that. But wtf man!?! I don't really know anyone else with a DSM.

WATCH OUT IT'S A YELLOWJACKET!! DON'T GET STUNG!! jk..

Bikes are nice, I love my brother's Hayabusa 1300 cc's of pure unadulterated fun.

 

[EclipseTrbo420A]

Yea they already called me bumble bee, which is badass by the way. I orderd the jacked last night...freakin 260 dollars later. and Eric...Im getting another DSM soon. probably before winter.

 

[Burnett03]

Nice bike squid... Shorts are a huge no-no...
-01 R6 here

 

[DSM-ZERO]

JUST SOLD MY BLACK 03, 600 RR FOR 4000$

i love that jacket i have the very same ICON but in black. imo very good choice

 

[EclipseTrbo420A]

Well Im alittle ways in now, and could not be happier...I think the 600rr is a great choice for starting as long as you are smart about it. Heres the bike now...I made some changes and that cruiser you saw up top is now 2nd inline behing this silver F4i in the pics below..The white bike is just another guy we met who like riding.

My new mods are the rear wheels stripe, added custom turn signals to the rear, rear seat cowl with blacktrim, and a tank protector. I have more plans but im trying to stay clean while I do it... If your thinking about a bike and can swing it financially...I give it 2 thumbs up all the way. Laast pic is obviously me with my pimpass gear on haha stay safe everyone! Ill be back soon

 

[eboy0]

Bike looks sick bro! Though the DSM will be missed....

 

[Defiant]

No rain yet, eh?

 

[EclipseTrbo420A]

I got rain the second week I was on it...never felt so helpless just sitting below the underpass... My 3rd DSM wont come soon enought. Some time cruising on 4 wheels is just where its at. I dont regret the sale though..I was driving the top of the line model like a only lady all the time..I could have had a N/A and driven it faster. well see though my options are open to any 95-99 turbo dsm or a 99 Na DSM. wish me luck, finding the right one will take while.

 

[wvturbo2]

Go turbo DSM!!!! Nice Bike also

Ha dont worry....I did the same other other day with my freind..


No one could see my face in the helment so I didnt care...

He didnt like the fact there was girls next to us, and I humped him in traffic hahaha

 

[Thomas91169]

Sold my 02 GT (DD) and 91 GSX to one of my draftsmen for 11k for both.

Re-Purchased my 03 Redfire Cobra.

long story short, my drafter jokingly said 11k for both, while my payoff for the GT was 11.4k, which IMO it was a deal since ive been trying to get out from under the GT since i got the cobra and had to sell it last year (two mustangs and two insurance payments for mustangs suck being a 22 year old white male with two speeding tickets). i figured once he picks up those, ill just go buy another cobra. incidentally enough, the guy who i sold mine to just happens to be wanting to get a GTO (he wants to do boltons+nitrous, needs a better car for commuting in, which ill be honest, the cobra isnt one of those cars), so everything fell into place this time, and i now have my Cobra back.

its pretty fast. no, actually its retarded fast. however its funny, when i got it it was having some issues at around 4500rpm, just felt like it was falling on its face. the dsmer in me automatically said "Plugs n00b!", he said he just changed them so i figured i might double check his work. Denso Iridium IT22's gapped at .044. insanely stupid gap, the sort of gap it takes an act of god to not blow out. i just regapped them to .032 and all is well now. took her through the twisties this weekend up to Mt Hamilton and she drove awesome, handles beautifully, i was not even pushing her at all, very casual and just taking corners like they were nothing.

the only things i plan on doing is beefing up the IRS (already have a IRS Brace on order), get a rear IRS kit from Maximum Motorsports, doing a few more Redfire goodies for the engine bay (###### powdercoat the TB and Coil Covers, few other odds and ends), get a Stegemeir port for the eaton so i can slap on a 2.76" upper / 4lb lower and make more boost and not as much heat, and get it tuned, no more mail-orders.

 

[Tobuk]

Nice, I like it. Could use some wheels maybe. Black doesn't look good with that red, IMO. Clean car though, only mustang I'd ever consider owning.

 

[red97tib]

as much as im a chevy lover, im still going to say that thing looks bad ass.
