    I wasn't gifted anything but I have been on a buying spree of late.

    Honda top case
    Honda heated grips (ordered from the EU)
    Sargent seat (to replace the crappy Corbin that was on there)
    Carbon Fiber triple clamp protector
    Carbon fiber combo rear fender & chain guide
    Carbon fiber tank protector
    Carbon fiber heat sheild
    New adjustable rear sets in black with carbon fiber heel plates (natch)
    multi hook up accessory fuse block (with ground block)
    Scorpio Alarm with perimeter sensor, anti hijack, battery back up
    Gen-Mar bar risers
    Power Commander
    Super loud Steibel horns

    And this week I think I will order an Ohlins rear end.

    Toying with a Staintune, and if I do that I will get the headers Jet-Coated (while I am in there). Figure I have to remove the exhaust to do the rear shock anyway right? So, while I have it off...

    Also toying with getting some sort of tire monitoring system, either the SmartTire one, or when Kisan finally comes out with their new one. It was supposed to be on their website on the 22nd of Dec., but I haven't seen it there yet.
    Once it is and I make a decision, I am going to add a Kisan headlight modulator, tail light flasher, and signal canceler. But I am waiting till I decided, so I can do one order (get a discount and save on shipping).

    I also beleive I found some auxiliary light mounts for up high on the bike, and if so, I will get some aux lights hooked up. PIAA has some nice HID ones, but that is $$$.

    I was also going to do Galfer braided lines and wave rotors, but I just flushed the system in the fall, so I think I will just wait; let my credit card cool off. Maybe next Christmas?

    I also want to do the HID conversion kit for the headlights, but that will have to wait for down the line.

    Now all I need from Santa is a long weekend without the wife and little buddy to do all the install.

    All my goodies I got for the VFR came via me in Nov. in fact now that I'm thinking about it, only thing i received motorcycle related was from my oldest son in where he got me a Faster DVD. cool, just watched disc 2 today. oh yea spark plugs from my daughters boy friend, which just so happens to work the parts counter at our Honda dealer.

    Santa avoided me this year.

    VFR is booked in for the 72,000km service this Friday. Then I'll start looking into getting the suspension done.

    I did pick up a 929 rear shock from eBay last week for the staggering sum of $10.50. I still need to get a preload wrench for it and fab a mount but I'm pretty pleased with the purchase.
