Goin' broke quickly!!! Mod orders... yikes!

Hey friends... after reading, researching, hemming and hawing... I bought supplies to attempt the Debaffle job. Then i placed two big orders, and this is after i registered, titled the bike & paid taxes today= $465!

Dennis Kirk: kury ISO grips, 2 emgo oil filters, cobra Fi2000r, mustang fender chap = $285

Phat Performance: Barons 2.25 Tach Black face, Kury Contoured ISO throttle boss, Stebel Compact Tuning chrome air horn, Mustang Tank Bib= 344.19 :'(

OUCH! I want to do a massive overhaul on my Nomad, and make her mine. Also I plan on doing an Air Mod down the pike... Thankfully, I won't pay this credit card bill for 2 billing cycles.

Someone should've told me that i'll go broke owning a Nomad ;)

LOL! Oh, i forgot... i sent my grasshopper backrest to be fitted for my nomad (had it on my M50), and I'm bidding on the removable hard bag screws on ebay, and just bought the wiring harness. I guess it's like God's grace and my sin... endless!

Yep, sit down and have a few beers today. By this time next month you will have seen two new pieces of chrome and a preformance goodie that you can't live with out and you won't beable to afford the beer. But the Nomad will be your creation and she will be lookin' good:)
thanks for your time

Sit down, have a beer and get used to watching your cash fly out the window and land on your bike in the form of bling.

Add a Webslinger speedo dial to that list. This is one of the most uniquely personal things you can do to your nomad and is relatively inexpensive.

No one ever said it was going to be inexpensive. Just enjoy the ride.
