  1. You guys hit a painful spot with me with this one. I've loved bikes since I was in grade school. Over he years I've owned about a dozen. Gsxrs, CBRs, FZRs, Ninjas, etc., but haven't ridden one in many many years. All after near fatal accident. I've recovered fully, but the years have tacked on and all I seem to be able to do is get the itch every spring and act like a little kid when I hear/see one roll by. To answer the OP, I've never had a Duc, but I sure have stared and tossed the idea of buying in my head many times.

    I know what I'm about to say is a bit of a downer, but a co-worker of my buddy was just killed on his bike this past Saturday when he was merging onto a fwy. It was his first bike and first week riding it. It's stories like that that seem to keep me from getting back on one.

    To those who still carry on the passion. Cheers! :drinks:

  2. With BK's DSSD it would be impossible to tell with a glance, your friend would most likely have to compare the two side by side. Personally, the only imperfections i think BK's DSSD has is the bezel insert and the clasp, but other than that its pretty much 1:1, but that doesn't mean you can't mod it with trevor's insert and vacclume that beast and change the bracelet with a Nato strap into a full blown semi franken DSSD. BK's DSSD is the best 1:1 rep you'll get out the box hands down. I'll post some pic's later so you can compare my BK with a GEN. But this is my 2 cent and I'm no DSSD expert, so fellow platinum members please feel free to criticize :thumbsupsmileyanim:

    Just out of curiosity. What does one of BK's DSSD's go for? Thanks in advance. :thumbsupsmileyanim:

  3. great news buddy. to get you even more excited ... mine actually arrived a few days earlier than the expected delivery date. we look forward to seeing a pic or yours soon!

    p.s. be careful when you're wearing it. i bumped a door handle in my house the other day and put a small smudge in the case. luckily it wasn't the nano screen.

    Thanks and I'll put up a pic of this one. :thumbsupsmileyanim:

    Honestly, I also see this as a novelty and probably will do lots of shelf time after the initial honey moon period. For me though, it's worth the price for the "ice breaker" factor. I see myself wearing this to certain social events as an ice breaker and a conversation piece. It should be great for some shits n giggles. LOL :drinks:

  4. yes, it should have been clear when you ordered that it would take some time. the truth is that some investors in this project haven't even received theirs yet. it would bother me if someone who bought it after the fact got theirs before an investor. with that being said, i hope you get yours soon! fyi, i have two separate e-mail addresses for them and both have responded to me within a day. if you'd like them ... simply pm me and i'll pass them along. all the best.

    Just got a reply from them and a tracking number! Thanks for all the help wheaton! Its much appreciated. :drinks:

  5. Ztech. Are you trying to outright purchase one or did you sponsor trough kickstarter? I think most of us who have them got them through the startup at kickstarter. My understanding is that they were overwhelmed with the initial run for supporters and are still catching up.

    Thanks for replying krpster. I purchased it outright. I went to their web site and paid for the item via paypal. I've emailed them and still no reply from them. I guess if they're that backed up I should give it some more time.

  6. I did some research after seeing this thread. It seems Samsung and LG both make a watch phone. I really like the idea of a watch phone, but there's one hurdle they're going to have to get over. It's the price of these watch phones. I did some checking and they're around the $800-$1000 range. Since none of the carriers offer these phones, you're going to have to purchase it on your own without discounts and rebates for 2yr contracts. I think that's the deal killer for me. I can't see myself paying near a grand for a novelty, albeit a very cool novelty. Just my 2 cents.

  7. Z,

    I think you meant Wheaton26, he was looking for a wireless solution. I was making a reference to FxrAndy who was asking about good quality headphones.

    I'm sure they'll work up a solution soon, the next version will have to come out with in-built Bluetooth.

    I'm jealous of all the Lunatik owners, let's get some pics up! :)

    Yeah looks like I got confused. Thanks for clearing things up. :thumbsupsmileyanim:

  8. eBay "super.fi4 vi " they're in-ear buds with phone control, eBay has them from dodgy HK distributors for 35-40 bucks delivered, they are absolutely fantastic, 26dB noise isolation, brilliant :)

    Hey subbie,

    I checked ebay and those are wired earphones. Do you have a link, or info, on where I can find those wireless earphones you're talking about? Thanks in advance.
