Economic Stimulus Package Glee

BigBadBikerWolf · 05-12-2008, 07:09 PM

Well I’m 400bucks poorer now done my government duty and spent a ton of cash on the economy. I just ordered Cortech armored leather pants as well as a headlamp and tail-lamp modulator from HoM.

So far I’ve picked up frame sliders, repainted the radiator guards black, and changed the oil 3 xs in 200 miles.
Really wish I just bought this bike sooner. Riding is all I think about now, unlike my past bikes, there really is something differnt with the Fz6 the others didn't have.

I guess when you can pay your monthly bike payment, plus insurance and it’s still less than the cost of filling up your truck’s gas tank. Things kinda all fall into perspective.

So, anyone here spend there government cash on there bike?

When I get my $600 I will probably put it towards the down payment on my new 08 GSX-R600.

Well.. because my wife didn't have a SSN (we were still processing her green card paperwork) when we filed.. I get nothing.

The way this rebate thing has been structured is really piss poor IMO.

Nothing, even for yourself?

Nope.. had I filed separately I would have gotten the $600 check, but because we filed jointly, I get nothing. Strangely though, because she now has her SSN, I can file for it next year and receive it. Like I said.. it's poorly implemented.
