Adjusted the shit out of the screw for the ac pump and its going better, it wasn't being depressed before. Now I need to get the front tire seated on the rim correctly and I might hit 70. If I can get a part number for the pilot jet, bump the main up a bit more, this thing will get beastly.
Hey guys just registered. I saw the Heist last week for the first time, after walking into Scoots4u down the block from My home. WOW! That is exactly what Im looking for right now! I plan on picking one up later this week! I plan on buying 2 and basically financing My buddy. However the owner quoted Me an OTD (plates and all) cash price of $3,763.15, each! That just seems a little steep to Me! I also would like to right away do the upgraded carb, short pipe, and Head mods. Any suggestions where I should buy?? Is that price about right?? If I can get it cheaper elsewhere that would be great, or get it ordered with the Mods I listed, if thats possible???? Any/all help will be appreciated.
ITguy - Hit up Tom from Weaverrides he's the guy that is doing the carb and heads on the heists and he also finances - Let him know that you saw this thread.
Any questions just ask away man
That's about 200 cheaper than I paid. And I had actual cash.Quote:

Get them to quote some prices. If any quote is lower than your local dealer then ask him to beat it. If they want your business they will deal, or you could play several dealers against each other for the lowest price.
I only got riding in yesterday, but it was nice to get out. I'm at about 1100km on tha heist now, it's really starting to feel nice and broke in, seems to run great now *knocks on wood*. I'm not sure if I'm just getting used to the bike and riding in general or if it's getting outside of the break-in period, but it's just a joy to ride right now. We have a golf outting at the firm on Thursday and the weather looks to be good Thur. and Fri. this week, so I'm hoping I can ride it in to work twice this week (since I won't have to suit up on those days).
Wanting to start customizing further, but I've got a honeymoon here at the end of the month, it'll have to wait until after (if I have any funds left)
Hey IT guy maybe I misread but can you explain further? - was that quote for if you were to buy 2 Heists? I'm heading up to scoots4u this weekend to possibly seal the deal on a Heist myself.Quote:

Lewnor - good info much appreciated. ITRguy - thanks for clarifying. Looks like scoots4u will be needing to order more than 1 heist at a time. I corresponded with Brett at PIT Motors and they can do mods at the distribution level. You would need Bob to talk with Brett then for what you want and for pricing, that's if you intend to go through scoots4u. I would ask if what you want to have done would still keep the bike under warranty as well.
Yes thats ITRguy not ITguy, Im an Auto Tech, not IT Tech! Yeah Good call on checking about the warranty with mods. He only had one at the shop and said i could put a deposit down on that one and he could order us the 2nd one. I still havent decided 100% if Ill get 2, Im getting One for Me ASAP tho, Im going in to talk more tomorrow after My closing and see what we can do. Has anyone done any piston and cylinder mods? I have done countless pistons and cylinders on my MX bikes over the years, so Im excited to see whats out there for the heist motor. weather has been BEAUTIFUL!! Ride safe guys!!
I'm having State Farm call their underwriters to find out if I can even get insurance through them - for the Heist. What insurance are people going through and how much $? I assume Progressive covers? Any help would be appreciated - thanks.
I have insurance through progressive. Rates vary dramatically depending on driver history and type of insurance (state minimum vs. highly insured)
Thanks Turner - looks like State Farm will insure it for only a little more than I'm paying now.Quote:

hey guys been out most days with the kid, did manage to get out and do some night riding Sunday and yesterday after hitting the shore.
I ordered this carrier from amazon last night. I scored a credit from them and only paid 110 bucks with overnight shipping. Should be here tomorrow. So hopefully by Thursday i will have it on the truck and have pics and reviews of it.
i have progressive for insurance, I found them the cheapest, and my buddy Mat has his through Rider.
Looking at taking my Bike down to Sandy Hook NJ and get some pics beach side. :icon10:

I have given up on trying to find Keystones and have selected another style which I haven't yet seen anybody else use on their Heist... But yes E-Bay is your friend and I scoured it until I found that magical pair of handlebars that met what I was looking for :icon10: ... I was thinking of going ahead and ordering everything I want for the Bike and when I get the approval from HH6 to purchase the Bike just roll it from the Bike Shop into my garage and put all that stuff on it ( sort of a 5 Ps thing : Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance )...

Thats what i ended up doing WK2
Heads up you de-chromers. Replaced the air filter with a black rubber K&N. Part no. R-1070, $30. Shit Wizard's breathing all hot and heavy now. That's what I named my bike, shit wizard.

Gardo,,, I think you might have a new Project for Tom and that would be to come up with a "Old Skool" looking kick that will clear all exhaust set-ups and have a bike peddle... Just a thought :mwink: :thumbsup:
