New jacket

RichLockyer at the Kawasaki Motorcycle forums suggested it to be a great jacket. One he prefers to wear in the heat since it has removable pads. I thought it would be best with this Florida weather we are having.

Boots

Due to be taking my MSF course on the 28th of August, I wanted to finally get a pair of boots so I wouldn’t have to worry about purchasing a pair later. So, my pal Stan just happen to point out that Timberland was having an online special with a 40% off coupon including free shipping. At first, I was just going to purchase regular boots until I noticed they had a motorcycle header underneath the boots section. There I found these puppies. Style wise I like them, I’m not to fond of boots in general. I am more of an flip-flop and sneakers kind of guy. I happen to own way too many flip-flops though which will soon change when I begin to ride more often. Awesome boots for an awesome price, I am very happy about my purchase. Now to find a worthy jacket which I already have my eye on. It’s a tourmaster as well~

Total: $57.24

Rear blinker set found, thanks to ninjabandit from the KM forums! Don’t think I grabbed the last pair but there aren’t too many left on the users auctions.

Price: $23.95

Front blinkers

Asianstyle black turn signals. In the picture, they are regular color signals. I requested to have mine tinted in black with amber bulbs. They will look beautiful.

Website is finished! Bike is ready to be purchased! I began to gather many of the items I would need to get started on the modding. I spoke to Henry, my sports bike salesman and told him to get everything ready for me so when I arrive, I can sign a few papers, grabs some equipment and go. I’m tight for time and I really want to ride. I really do look forward to my MSF course. The first mods I plan to do will probably be the front blinkers/rear blinkers aswell as removing the fender. Adding the gas-cap will be no real challenge at all. Then I will search to have a decal made. Anyway, enjoy your stay here! And thanks to ninjabandit at the Kawasaki Motorcycle’s forums for inspiring me to create a web site specifically for my dive into ride motorcycles.

Arigato~



Henshin! The header.

Designing is finished! Now to make sections for the site itself. This is incredibly fun especially working with picky CSS. I did enjoy making the header for the website since there were so many choices. The one above is the header I liked the most. Let me know what you think.

Brief description of the header:

  • ● The kanji says, “Kamen Rider”. It’s a japanese show that I fell in love with at a young age. I am now 21 and still supporting the cause. Google it and enjoy!
  • ● The red banner came to mind when thinking of a sponsor.
  • ● The logo itself is the Kamen Rider retro logo. To show my appreciation, I used it as a tag until I recreate a version of my own of it.
  • ● The header itself makes up the German flag. Move around some of the colors and it’s visible. That was my last decision on the header.
  • ● The almost hidden logo on the right side of the Kawasaki Ninja 250R says Kamen Rider V3. A much older Kamen Rider series that really flaired my interest. Google and enjoy!
