Everyone, THere is a guy in the Miami Squadron that started it. We should list what we do or have hookups on therfore making it hopefully easier for us here. WE have this forum in common and the obvious love for bikes. What do you think? I am a "computer guy". If you need advice or need tech services let me know... I also know where to get the best deals on equipment.

i think it's a great idea. i will start. my brother is a tool maker and he can make up some pretty cool and damn sturdy frame sliders. i have talked to modsquad about this and he is currently making him a left side slider. this slider mounts to the opposite side of the swingarm pivot bole with a threaded rod. i have one on mine and his bike and it is mounted via tapping the open end (on yamaha anyways) of the swing arm pivot bolt to accept the slider. this will then protect the entire left side casings of your r1 or other bike just as the clutch slider protects the right. pretty slick indeed. i will try to find a pic. oh and he also made me up some engine mount sliders that are really tough. so if anyone needs anything, even custom stuff like modsquad, pm or post up and i'll see if he can do it.

Cool idea I work for Mercedes-Benz Canada as Pre-Owned Manager. That means that I can get deals on not only a benz but I can look for off brand stuff too. or if you're looking at a used car somewhere else and you want to check the value to make sure that you're not getting ripped off give me a shout and I'll make some calls for you.

Excellent idea. I network with a TON of vendors... I have access to a lot of different items, such as electronics, fitness and nutrition stuff, everyday items like toilet paper and soap, cell phones, office supplies...etc...

Heavy airplane mechanic. If you needs some flush mounts for your 707, or maybe a slip-on for your 777, I'm your man!

I am a group benefits consultant. If you introduce me to your human resourses or your boss and I get your account, I'll give you at least $1000. Could be much more, depending on how many employees you have. (Canada Only)

They had a powder coating and sandblast machine.... :yesnod I have done a couple of things for myself.... and can probably do them really cheap if I am working there... and providing we have the colour.... (limited colours) here are my extra rims I did.... (I had to buy the powder myself)

Hahaha Sweet!!! How much are you paying to have that little sucker shipped to Toronto? Also, I'm looking to get a new tank or my tank painted? Any suggestions?

Any suggestions? shipping was a set fee of $100US to anywhere in the US.... so I am having it shipped to Boxing21 (on the forum) in buffalo and I will go pick it up from him... tank: if it is for your street bike.... you might be better to get it painted professionally.. if its for the track... I could powder coat it... It is not the best job.. that is why its for a trackbike... that was my first tiime doing a tank... it turned out pretty good (not showroom material... hahahah) and I got sand in it from sandblasting... so my buddy would have to wash it out about 100 times to make sure the tank has no sand in it...

I understand that. I didn't want to get it powedercoated. I want to get it done professionally but I figured because you were in Toronto you might suggest someone for me.

Im a Linux Server guru, Clusters, Web, Email, Database.. As well as computer hardware... I also have my own software product that provides Document Imaging on the Local network or over the internet. This softwares advantage is that your primary application can "hook" directly into it so there is no need for the user to key in the reference codes for the images in the database, and its very Dummy Proof since it was initially designed for Truckers to use. The best place for computer hardware: www.zipzoomfly.com Id rather be on my R1 than in front of the computer any time! Twig...
