Oh hehehe -_-

I want something old to tinker with.

Neo Xian Wu

Word. I wish I had more spare time to tinker more on my bike.

I feel like I have too much time.

And of course I wake up late and can't ride on this nice as morning. Oh well I will tonight.

Sooooo went to ride for a few last night. low beam HID wouldn't ignite... period. messed with it for about 20 minutes. Gave up. Was going to ride to work today with just the high beam and work on the lows at work. Low beam came on right away. - I had ridden it home last night, worked fine. Let it sit for about 20mins before said "short ride" and then it didn't -- do HIDs get "heat soaked" (not what it really is, but a loose term to describe it) or anythign of the like? It was still pretty warm out when I got home, plus a hot motor..

If they're going to be this unreliable, I may go back to halogens. While I love the increased visibility at night, it's not worth it.

The ones I put in the civic never did that. I did have one bulb go dim as fuck like 3 weeks after I put them in but they always turned on.


I'm feeling a group ride/lunch or dinner in the next few weeks.

Talked to my friend Nick and he said that his started doing that just before the ballasts took a crap. So I guess we'll see -- I'd rather it be the ballasts than anything else, at least they'll be under warranty.

Where'd you get them from? So I can avoid that company... lol.

So I've decided to downsize on bikes. I am no longer looking for a 04-06 r1. I now want a 06+ R6.
