Very cool @MiM! What was or is the source and pricing for these?
About $250. Came with LED back lighting. These had issues with the light staying in place in this harsh environment and I assume excessive vibrations.
-
Thanks Dave... that's awesome news. Fingers crossed.
-
I heard @Dave@DDMWorks may be doing them... It's on my list!
@Dave@DDMWorks Any truth to this? I don't trust Marco.
If you are... can you put me on the schedule? -
@ivor Will Bob from Mefi-Burn be at the event? I can't seem to find an updated vendor attendance listing.
I have slacked on getting my ECU tuned. Would love to get this done at the event.
T-8 days!!!

So @2W2X1 Joey, I am guessing that the swim party is definitely off for next week! But the BBQ could still happen right! Looks good see you in Kerrville.
These guys are slow, but meticulous to say the least. It will eventually be bad ass! We can def. BBQ.
That is going to be beautiful when it's finished. Are you doing all your own design work?
Congrats!
I requested 3 bids for our budget and then took all three designs and modified one to meet what we liked in all three. We choose the materials to use on hard scapes. But I don't take credit for the 360* spill over spa. That was all my pool guy. I can't wait to show off all the elements of this build once completed.
-
Pool updates. Most of the coping is in, spa is tiled along with the waterline. The grotto is mostly built and the waterfall/jump off rock is in place. Going to be ready for summer time! See you all next week in Kerville.

Their website is a freaking joke. Grammar alone would keep me from buying anything on that site.
I remember these clowns. HAHAHAHAHHA
-
Yup, put me down for a bottle. I plan to head up after work Thurs. and will be there Fri./Sat. Thanks @MiM
I need to contact Mitch with RevDynamics and confirm my appointment. Now that I am working... I may have scheduled the day/time with a conflict.
The event is drawing near... I am getting excited for this.
-
Looks great Joey, will it be ready for viewing after Kerrville or do we wait for later. You are going to Kerrville in April right! I mean we all could just take a ride to check it out then go back and ride sisters. By the way, where have you been? JUST SAYIN
Not sure if it will be done by the hill country event or not. If it is... we can do something here for sure.
My thoughts as well!
Getting busy Joey?yeah, life has been crazy around here... but all for the better. Been focusing on obtaining my real estate license, getting this house out together and recently started a full time job again. I am still around, but haven’t been active here. The winter weather sure hasn’t helped. But that is all changing now. Took the SS to a canyon lake cruise in last week with Richard Wiley.
Hope all is well with you buddy!
-
You're never going to leave the backyard...I was really hoping to get this finished before I was forced to leave due to a job... job beat the backyard oasis project. Sucks... but will have three day weekends every week, so I’ll def get to enjoy it.
Bring a SS over for a free ticket to enter the oasis. Simple as that!

That pool is freakin’ AMAZING! Looking forward to seeing the completed results (day & night pics PLEASE!!!)...
You are a short SS ride away. Come see it in person. I got a place for you to crash.
But will definitely showcase the finished results. With both day and night photos/video.

We have had some weather delays in the pool building process as I am told this was an unusually wintery winter here for Texas.
We have the concrete decks, pads and kennel poured. The dog kennel is now completely built. The next couple weeks will be rock work and coping install. We are looking at a completion date of end of April. We are getting excited and the size of the pool and patios are starting to sink in.
Found a nice sunny day to drain and pressure wash the 7' fountain. It looks amazing now. I also put it on automation so I could control it from anywhere on the property.
The boom truck they brought to sling the concrete around was massive and impressive.
-
My only question is how old was the date code on it?Since it was a discontinued tire, that was the first thing I checked on the tires I special ordered at Americas Tire. The date codes put them only a few months old at the time of purchase. It isn't an old tire that had been sitting issue.
-
Hey Joey when we going riding again? Don’t think I will today cause it is kinda chilly out right now
I am free most days ending in Y... That is until I decide to take up employment. Still playing stay at home dad and monitoring the progress of the back yard oasis. Next 60* weather day, let's meet up for a ride and lunch.

I live in California so I am required by law to wear a helmet. 95% of the time I use a very small 1/2 helmet but I also have a bell vortex for when its cold or raining. What do you use?
I quit wearing a helmet in CA after 4 months of wearing it and hating it. To each their own on reasons... But I found it wasn't something I needed in the SS. I had a 3/4 helmet and the skull cap helmet. Hated having to wear both. I also sit behind and view through a windshield, so the helmet wasn't a factor for vision protection.
I'd argue a helmet is not required per CA law and for a year and a half and 10K miles on CA roads, I never had an issue with the CA helmet law. I carried a print out of the law in case I was ever stopped. Which was only once. I was not ticketed. I also had conversations with multiple LEOs on the subject. They ranged from agencies CHP, Sheriff, and local PD. All agreed the SS does not require a helmet. I know of several helmet tickets thrown out in the state of CA and only 1 case where the citation stuck. I liked those odds.
No longer something I need to debate since I left CA.

I still have the AS-03 installed on a second set of wheels and can tell you... swapping it out for the stock Kenda and doing the same stretch of road around me, it breaks free much faster than the Kenda. I really wanted to love the tire and thought I would based on the reviews I read here when shopping for the right all around tire.
-
I hated the General AS-03 tire for two reasons... I found it to break loose and lose grip much faster than the stock tire. I didn't have to try and spin the rear tire, it just did it everywhere. I tried to play with the air pressure and then thought it needed to break in. Put about 1K miles on the newly installed AS-03 and it was still slippery as all get out.
The second reason is how loud it was when doing a burnout. It squealed and squelched LOUDLY. Gone was the ability to do silent burnouts. Figured it was going to cause me a ticket as often and I lay down the rubber. I went back to a stock Kenda tire and I am much happier.
I do love the look of the tire!
