Alright well I finally got my Fibe hood the other day and just put it on yesturday . Because no mounting hardware was included , I had to figure out what I was gunna use . So after drilling the holes for the hood , I decided rivets would most likely do the job . It actually worked pretty good and turned out quite stylish ( atleast I think so anyways) . Here are a few pictures of the hood , my HUGE Renthal banner that wouldn't fit in my bedroom so it got moved to the garage , and my cracked plastics from when I got hit by the dirtbike . In the picture that you see my 2 fingers , thats where the plastic cracked .... hard to believe thats the only damage on the bike and my leg is shattered in about 25-30 places .

btw how are you able to do anything being all busted up and chit Thanks ... the hood actually looks pretty good .... didn't fit perfectly but I made it fit . I'm not worried about the cracked plastics .... it could have been alot worse , plus insurance is replacing the pieces that broke ... so basically new rear fenders and rad shroud piece .

As far as me being able to do anything .... I get around on the crutches , but out in the garage I got a old office chair that I use to roll around with . Makes life so much easier . I actually got 2 office chairs out in the garage and an office desk ...... guess where my Dad spends most of his time ?? :blah:

I'm paying $200 Canadian a year for full coverage . So about $140 a year US . I could get it as low as $60 a year but that would be just basic coverage . I'll pass on the 450r at the moment . Because of the severity of the break in my leg , I don't know if I'll ever be able to kick start another bike ... so I'll have to stick with push button for now anyways . I'm gunan start dumping more money into the bike once I get a bit of cash flow going .... having this broken leg , I ain't able to work ( not right now anyways) . As far as the banner , I got it from the company I work for . We use them for a few months then Renthal or other suppliers end up sending us new ones , so I take the old ones home . I got a few now ... Renthal , Warn Winches , Moose etc.

Hey Quadstar18, does that company that you work distribute a-arms, if so what kind? All I can get around here are laegers, which I don't really like!

I really wish we could but they ( the head hunchos) figure it would be too much of a hassle to get into . Your best bet in Canada for race parts would be Splash N Dirt ... www.splashndirt.com . They can get you almost anything you need .
