That's a pretty tight budget for anything other than pretty basic balanced cables. I'd have a look at Blue Jeans Cables and see what they can do for you, in that price bracket they're pretty hard to beat and some would argue that spending more than that isn't buying you anything.

I completely understand the lust for a GSXR but again my 2

With all due respect, no they don't. Your katana has as much a sport riding position as my Sprint. The handlebars are mounted above the triple clamp, which makes a huge difference. And if you think your legs are at all cramped on your current ride you're in for a painful experience on any of the 600 supersports. My brother owned both a GSXR650 and 750 and I rode them both, they bring the SUCK for commuting. I'd rather be poked in the eye with a sharp stick than ride that style of bike anywhere outside a racetrack. .I pay less than $300/yr for my Sprint and insurance was the reason I'm not on a VFR. Even when I was your age it was 1/3 what a VFR would have been despite having a larger motor and being worth more. That's hard to say, could you really get $2k for it knowing that it needs that much work?

Leeloo kicks you in the nuts for your closed mindedness. Dan, I lust for an Aprilia RS250.

Says the guy with the flashing title!

The GT650 in either standard or S trim is actually a very nice ride.

I've got one that I'm sure we could work a deal on, I haven't used it in years. I think I've even got the original (although somewhat beat up) box when it was sold with the HD580s.

DSP Pro? The Sennheiser unit? Or some other similarly named product.

New bike = bad idea.

I'd like a little bit of extra credit since I created that bunny lolcat just for Mike. It occurred to me after reading his post that he could use a laugh.

NICE!

Hear hear!

Like Dan said, they just don't lock and don't need to. Remember, the XLR connector was invented for the professional audio market where users are concerned about cables getting kicked out during a live performance. With headphones I'd argue it's probably better to remove them.

Thanks Steve, although I hardly think I'm deserving.

The retention clips are wholly unnecessary, and they are upside down on Ray's gear because he uses board mount bits and that's how they fit.

Looking forward to watching this progress, nice work so far.

Haj, I'm sure I've got a pair of cables somewhere you can borrow. What do you need?

Certainly not a catch-all Kevin, but it'd sure be nice to at least have the option if Mikhail once again decides to play loose with shipping deadlines or sends a defective product.

Balanced Stock HD650 Cable. Start saving for a GSX.

Happy Birthday!

The only way I'd pay Mikhail right now is via a CC so you could do a charge back if issues arose.

I am starting to have a greater deal of trouble with the way that he is conducting business. This whole over-upgrading and increasing the price thing is downright ridiculous. As if there isn't enough margin in some of those upgrades anyway.

8' of high capacity base board heat + installation labor for Lily's room which was consistently 3 to 5 degrees cooler than our bedroom where the thermostat is.
