I got the gen7 and the Rocksta for Christmas.

I wish I could just buy a 1/10 Rocksta, having 4ws is the bomb.

Simple need, a male XT60 plug . Went into my spares box, found 6 females, Zero males, so a quick run to the lhs was in order. Hobbytown was 20 minutes closer rather than the regular shop I go to, after all it’s an XT60 ....... Went in and the guy behind the counter( replaced a bud who switched shops) was clueless as to what an XT60 was !
Showed me the elec parts and I showed him what it was..... And he’s getting paid to fix rc’s

No pics yet since we're still driving home with it, but found what looks to be a half decent HP laptop at Sam's to replace the hand-me-down HP from Dad that he bought back in 2006.Ended up being just under $490 w/tax and had what appears to be a decent low end AMD gaming set up from what I read on the PC World site. Only thing doesn't have that I really wanted is a light up key pad, but the key are matte black with big white letters, so that will be an improvement over the shiny brown keys and small white letters the old HP had.

finally got around to shooting a picture, but I put new tires on my XJ just before Thanksgiving. Just a simple set of 235/75r15 BFGoodrich Rugged Terrains on the factory rims.

Ever since the traxxas udr came out I’ve been trying to talk myself out of buying one. I already have a normal Baja rey and a yeti score so I don’t really need one.

Plus knowing how I am it will not stay stock for very long and I don’t want any of the stupid traxxas id batteries.

I also have more rc’s than I have places to put them.

Today however I finally cracked and walked out of my lhs with a udr with the fox scheme

It's funny... I try to not watch the UDR videos too often... Makes me have bad thoughts... wallet trimming bad thoughts.

It will make your BR and Yeti score feel like walmart toys.
the scale realism and details and just the way it move is SO real. that extra weight really works well on it.

Is that a purposeful misspelling because you're a Harley guy? I know some (a lot?) of Harley guys hate Buells because they aren't "real Harleys".

Yes, the stock muffler has the valve. That will be disconnected. Not many aftermarket exhausts have that valve.

Thanks! I've always loved the look of the bikes as well. That's what first drew me towards getting one.

Yes, it looks like a small car muffler. Buell did things differently - another thing I loved about them. They threw the exhaust under the bike for mass centralization and a low center of gravity which was kind of a "new" idea when they did it. Then all the Jap bikes followed. A quick guess is that this muffler is about 3/4 the length of the stock muffler.

Haha gbink. Ah OK - honest mistake. I often fight with auto-un-correct as well. I didn't know if you were one of "those" Harley guys that hates anything that isn't a Harley. I love all bikes.

Yep, it definitely goes under the bike. I'll be sure to post photos once it's installed. Can't wait to ride it.

Brothers from other mothers...
I too, think buells are rad.
And that muffler is super nice. I love how they are underneath for weight distribution.
I would get an xb12r if I wasnt scared to death of riding in socal.
