The best mods I made to my bike initially were for my tall build. Fastway footpegs, a SDG tall seat and Pro Taper bars were the only things I had to buy to make the Service Honda my perfect "dream" bike. Guys always say spend money on the suspension. But really my '03 suspenders performed ideally for my riding style and ability...until Race Tech fucked the forks up. I don't care for the rest of that stuff. I'd rather save the money and buy a hooker.

Badass setup = Teemtrubble Works 500. I know where my money is going for bike #2. Plenty of info on the board already about this, do a little looking around on here.

S/H cant build anything near this quality.

Its Mass Production, vs. Hand Craftsmanship.

Kinda off subject but what does a hooker cost? Never had one to know! But I do know 8 times out of 10 I can take a girl out off Myspace for say $60-$70 bucks and get some action.... Cheaper then a hooker? I hope so cause bikes require too much attention to have a full time woman chewing up my funds!!

Simply put before I would pay $11K plus for a bike I would build 2 of my own!!! And there is always the option of sending it to Mike and having a real frame fabed up and then take the build on from there, either way it would still be 2 for the price of one compared to a SH!

Thanks a ton guys. I didnt realize the tt bikes were so much better. I would build my own, but I just built one, and I want it as soon as I hit stateside. Ill look into the Team trubble bikes. Thanks for all the sugestions man. Oh and by the way, I just got home from the phillpines, and a hooker there is $30 a night, and she'll do anything you want. And you pick from 150 almost naked chicks running aroun the club. Hell if they like you its free.

Me and my buddies had a joke down there. You wrap it once, cover the condom in ben gay, then wrap i with another one. if your going at it and she starts screaming, outer condom broke. If you start screaming the inner condom broke. lmfao That place is insane. Anyone know how much the baddest thing Team Trruble has to offer cost? and What it is?

Really?

Is that a 250F frame? It's weird but there's a weld right in front of the lower motor mounts. Why is there a weld in that area? service honda frames don't even look nearly as good or as stock as a lot of the bikes on this site. I do like the blue theme though alot.

So if you want the best its team trubble, but if you want it when you order it sh? And yeah thats the bike I was talking about, just a few diffrent options, diffrent graphics and some port work and a few others things. How quickly can team trubble build a bike? And are there plans from either place to use an 09 cr450f frame? Cause thats the nastiest bike Ive ever seen.

Pretty much, or another craftsman builder like Chachi from the board.

Production bikes, even low volume production bikes like S/H, make certian compromises...
