My new ride

kiteboyza - 9-3-2011 at 05:44 PM

It arrived from the UK via the big blue ocean. One box missing, take a guess what it was! Sorry about the small pics but haven't a clue how to get decent ones on this board!

Is this the new levitating model?

kiteboyza - 9-3-2011 at 06:55 PM

WELDNGOD - 9-3-2011 at 07:28 PM

kiteboyza - 9-3-2011 at 08:04 PM

I hope it either shows up or some one is willing to let you use a set of wheels out there. Keep it to good thoughts. It might work!

He needs side-rails too....

I hope your box#30 is found soon! Looks like a real nice bug(so far!)

kiteboyza - 10-3-2011 at 02:32 PM

I got some wheels on order in Vegas, ready for a pickup, side rails are still a problem

rocfighter - 10-3-2011 at 03:18 PM

Oh crap I guess I do need new glasses:shocked2: I didn't even see that the rails are missing! You better hope I'm not driving near you.

ripsessionkites - 13-3-2011 at 10:51 AM

Did you get your rails yet?

Call me if you need assistance.

kiteboyza - 13-3-2011 at 11:13 AM

no rails as yet...might be coming without a buggy...bah:flaming:

ripsessionkites - 13-3-2011 at 12:40 PM

Call on Monday and if it's still in Vancouver just let me know where to go.

If it's with me, it will be at NABX on the 27th.

kiteboyza - 13-3-2011 at 01:18 PM

We'll they seem to think it made it to Vancouver, you know what these removal companies are like
Thanks for the offer buddy, will keep it in mind for sure if it does show!

macboy - 13-3-2011 at 11:58 PM

van - 14-3-2011 at 08:55 AM

There should be plenty of buggies from fellow PKF'er you can borrow buggies to ride. If I make it out there, you're welcome to take mine for a ride anytime.

snowspider - 14-3-2011 at 11:48 AM

Dakitez just looks at the pictures on facebook , what it said was Trikbitz cant get thier shi* together!

snowspider - 14-3-2011 at 11:50 AM

lol, sadly it's not his fault, Robinsons International lost it. The other 59 boxes made it in the shipping container to my house

macboy - 14-3-2011 at 04:05 PM

<tangent>
Rip - NABX is still a last minute thing but KB offered floor space if WestJet opens up that free seat for me :lol:
It'll be Thurs->Sunday if I do the deed. I'll be the guy hitch-hiking from Vegas with a kite buggy in tow ; )
</tangent>

well, i hear you can get a discount if you take the Jump Seat. j/king

we have floor space too, and we can do the Fold Out Bed for $10.00 extra per night. you may need earplugs in our room.

you have no excuse to be to come.

plus I have your Red-Balls, and I would rather deliver them inperson.

kiteboyza - 15-3-2011 at 03:59 PM

arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, just say it's lost already so i can get a new set made and shipped :mad:

macboy - 15-3-2011 at 05:38 PM

I remember a revolutionary advancement in motorcycle design using the engine as a stressed member of the frame system. Quite innovative and now pretty standard.

Maybe you could be onto a whole new level of fitness through kiting - acting as a stressed member of the kite buggy! Just wedge your feet into the forks, lash yourself to the axle and give 'er! (But take pics/vid....I wanna see too ; )

How old are you, macboy? 'Cause if you remember when the '48 Vincent Rapide came out, you are much older than I thought.
When Yami came out with a monoshock bike in 70's, they called it a revolutionary idea. They didn't bother to mention that Vincent had a monoshock in the 40's.

kiteboyza - 22-3-2011 at 05:39 AM

and a new set of rails in the mail, should be here Friday, thanks Mr Trikbitz for robbing these off his buggy:wee:

rocfighter - 22-3-2011 at 06:10 AM

Good news man.

BeamerBob - 22-3-2011 at 08:43 AM

Now that is service! Part friend and part empathy for a man going to nabx with a third of his buggy missing. Nice move trikbitz.

kiteboyza - 22-3-2011 at 09:18 AM

the come with lagging and rail covers.....lol....I'll send him a few hockey sticks in return, Oilers one's are going cheap...lol

kiteboyza - 25-3-2011 at 01:56 PM
