In case you haven't heard yet I did finally get a bird. It's a 2003 with 11k miles that I paid $6500 for.

Pics can be found here:
Leeark/2003 CBR1100XX Blackbird - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

List of parts that came with the bike:

Corbin Gunfighter seat (stock seat as well)
Zero-G Double Bubble windscreen (stock as well)
Metzeler Z6 tires with a spare Dunlop rear
3/4" handle bar risers
Throttlemeister bar ends
Geelong carbon fiber tank protector
Oberon pegs
K&N filter
CBRXX laser inscribed metal chainguard


So far I've purchased a tank bag and am now saving up for the Givi E460/V35 bags.

As long as it stays nice that would be a good idea.

I just bought a second headset for my girlfriend's helmet so we could chat with my X2 but the right ear piece doesn't have sound and for $70 it better have sound. So now I gotta go back out to South Bound Honda in Lakewood and take it back but they don't have anymore in stock

Hi Peedy, nice bike. I'm just starting to look around for one to buy. I live in Federal Way. You didn't happen to find two did you?
