Isn't it funny that, on here, somebody getting a new bike is about the same as somebody having a baby.

Congrats Joe. :wink:

Joe,
it sounds like you're well on your way to getting that bike together. I still have a bunch of stuff left to do on mine! Hopefully, I'll get some of it done this weekend.

I wish you good luck with Viva Motorsports. I have not heard one word back from them yet. It's been 16 days since I contacted them about my MSO, the broken mirror and my missing blue aluminum wheels that didn't come with the bike! My desktop home computer is not hooked back up yet from the move back into our old house. They may have sent me something about it, but I'd have no way of knowing. I don't do email on my laptop! I'll be calling them shortly!

Hehe, so is it a boy or a girl? Cigars for everyone!

JustJoe, my sticker on the steering head just has the serial # that's engraved in the metal right next to it. Then there's the sticker on the engine with the engine #. On the swingarm you'll find the sticker with the most info, EPA & stuff.

The serial #'s 10th character indicates the model year. I would suggest writing down the serial & engine #'s, going online to http://www.viva-motors.com/titlerequest.html and filling the info out right away to get your completed MCO.

Sorry to hear about the mirrors. Do you have an urge to see if a big red marker would change the rim color to red? LOL

I kinda like the Rims,What has me a little bummed out is the brittleness of the plastic especially the front fender. I know the first time I go off road that baby is gonna be toast!

Hey Kids,

Having problems posting Photos,Not exactly Bill Gates here!
I'll work on it and post soon.

Yesterday I changed the Oil,put in a NGK plug and mounted a 44 tooth sprocket from Dennis Kirk. A test ride shows the engine much happier at speed. 40mph in 5th went from 7k to 4.5k NICE!
