Congrats on the pickup!! Stay safe soldier!!
I've stated before that dust sticks to my NBP like a Swiffer which is a real pain in the ass, but when it's clean, WOW does it ever look good!!

Congrats and thank you for your service!
I'm not a fan of the wheels though.

Thanks everyone for the comments, my rims should be installed this weekend and my dad should send me some pics, ill have posted! Trackstar hit me up sometimes, i love doing track days, i used to have a 05GSXR600 that i used only for track days, but i low sided and ended up parting it out. now i just have my GSXR1000 that i take to the track sometimes, it is not as friendly as the 6 by any means! Thanks again everyone for the comments and support!

Sorry to keep going with this...but all this bike talks got me excited lol. Ive been riding my 06 GSXR 600 since i bought her brand new. Shes been all up and down the east coast! I just started getting into the track riding last year or two. Still in the process of getting all my gear together(expensive hobbies) But she is still streetable and I got some great road out here. btw nothing beats the TL/GSXR combo...what more could you want rite?

Yeah, for me the most expensive part of riding on the track was the gear and of course tires... i know out in arizona theres a place called cycle gear that had some great deals on gear, i believe they have locations in other states. i hear theres some awesome places to ride on the road on the east coast!!! but yeah the GSXR/TL combo is niiice cant wait to get some pics of them together!

im not sure why my car has that pinstripe the person we bought it from had it on there already? but i got a decent deal on it so i guess i can have everything perfect... anyways i got my rims yesterday my dad took them to get installed, and i guess teh front brake is in the way? pretty sucky!

Check out Ebay or the blackmarket section here for spacers with 64.1mm hub bore size. Check out H&R and Ichiba spacers! 10mm or larger I would recommend extended lugs. Ichiba V2 has the extended lugs pressed into the spacer!
