*edit* Apparently the newer T-rex's are not only more expensive, but now use a lame straight 6 1.6 liter BMW motor(160hp/129tq) or a MASSIVE PIECE OF **** Harley v-twin that makes 122hp and 84 tq. For $60,00 they can suck my dick. That busa knockoff looks a LOT better now, I could have sword T-Rex's were only like 30k not 60k...

Yea I know its a knock off, a real one is over $50k yea no thanks.

I already have a bike, I have carpel tunnel in both my arms that really bothers me if I ride te bike any longer then 30 mins... My arms go fully numb so I've been looking into the T. rex

i thought i would throw a friend a bone who owns a shop and order them through him.. I should have just ordered them through jegs, but they're about a month wait as well.

what his supplier didn't tell him is that they wont be bringing in anything from weld until they have a full stock order. so I've been waiting over a month for nothing.

then i told him **** it, just bring them in and i'll pay the extra shipping. so he called and they never made any order so they're not built yet. so regardless of where i order them from now it'll be at least a month.

Those rts are real common around me, seems like every camero runs them at the strip.

Just got the dark 94s with front runners for 900, and got my old dark 92s sold for 1100 so it was a no brainer to switch.

Wishing you better luck soon.

That's pretty good for a mild, bolt on auto. Nice.

Same here, I was looking at race star rears and found that the RT-S aren't that much more expensive and it's a way nicer wheel so I'm going to pick up a set of those.

they're build to order, unless you can find someone that stocks them.
