    So now you have even more chrome. The only chrome on my bike are my levers and they are going to be changed out eventually.

    SS brake lines are $90. that's on my list after I get the bike mapped.

    why are you clowns focusing on the random accessory i bought to make it free shipping? I placed the order for oil & new plugs

    Ducati asshole statement- My bike came stock with SS lines


    Because you have a gixxah and you just put more chrome on it. Is the filter chrome too? I sprinkle diamond dust in my food to make my doodie sparkle.

    there's just nothing else i could find for $30. and buying another 4 quarts of oil would be stupid, since i'll need a new filter next change.

    Let's face it, you wanted the bling but bought the oil to make free shipping and to try and cover up the fact that your plan all along was to get that chrome on your bike. Don't kid yourself....we're all onto you!

    The engine doesn't know what you've got for gearing.

    You're missing the point... the engine doesn't know what your gearing is... you still put 3000 miles worth of wear on the engine.

    I think this thread falls under the

    We all do regular maintenance and don't announce it.
