or just pay 30bucks a month for free parking anywhere on campus lol

Hey guys - one thing to be very cautious of right now is that if you are placing orders for parts/gear through local shops their pricing for most vendors has increased pretty significantly over the past 30-60 days. A 90 cent dollar has made an impact.
Whenever possible I will ALWAYS shop brick & mortar even if they can't completely match the price (as long as they try) but it's gonna get dirty out there now...
IE ~ I got a quote in January for a part at $529.95+tax. Went to place the order now and vendor/Canadian distributor has increased the price to $589.95+tax due to the currency fluctuation.
But that said - buying from the US/online won't necessarily help because we are all earning income in Canadian dollars.

the reason i haven't dumped money into suspension yet is because im still on the fence about selling the r6 and getting a 675r as the race bike instead man.

I would probably chose the 675R Ern, unless the R6 was the 08+ model that comes with the retractable intake.

Carry around a cheap fold-able windbreaker with you if you are worried about being too cool. They fold up to the size of a wallet, keep it in your pocket, wear it over or under your leather jacket if you get cold. That will keep you comfortable in a pretty broad temperature range.

More so noticeable when the air gets cooler.
Wearing any kind drifit base layer helps as well.

I have the alpinestars gpr perforated jacket. Warm/hot days is great but if it's cool outside you get cold fast. Just bring a super thin windbreaker and stuff it under the back seat.
