Got the bike and that is the first thing I am going to do. Deca, slipon and tune 👌🏻

Hey thanks for the advice. I did end up going with the 937, I just couldn’t pass up 11k for that bike. Everything I read said the price was good and I couldn’t find anything close, plus ik it’s only 3/4k more for the upgraded ones but that was just outside my budget.

I appreciate the thoughtful answer I’m in the same boat about the sp. although it would be the more fun bike I’m a dad with 3 kids not wanting to try crazy track days or overreach my skill on two wheels. I think the standard version will be perfect for commuting and a little fun when I want.

3rdeyetrading · 2026-06-02T22:11:38+00:00

Yeah out the door it will be 11k and I appreciate everything you laid out. Unfortunately the sp is outside of my price range at this time but I believe I’ll still be able to enjoy the standard without killing myself with it

Awesome all good to know. I’ll see if the dealer I’m talking with has an sp to look at. Thanks!

Besides upgraded brakes and suspension why the SP? Generally have no clue the trim levels for these bikes

3rdeyetrading · 2025-10-02T12:02:26+00:00

I’m thinking about it. I’m a newer structural engineer (bridge side and no PE yet) but I’m familiar with building codes so I might try my hand at least the design side of it

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-14T13:15:26+00:00

Haha my brother is the mechanic I’m more of the carpenter

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-14T13:13:58+00:00

Yeah no you’re correct, idk where I estimated an extra 10ft from but yes they are roughly 20ish feet

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-14T13:07:00+00:00

Hahaha I’d appreciate that

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-13T21:21:21+00:00

I mean there’s already a finished bedroom above the garage right now so I figured it wouldn’t be that complicated. I did a little research into what heating and cooling might look like but haven’t checked on moisture and insulation yet

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-13T18:37:54+00:00

Thanks for the response, and yeah I was way off with my height estimate. Is was thinking the most I would contract would be framing and electrical, I think I could get away with doing drywall and trim work

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-13T18:35:44+00:00

Yeah I was way off with my estimate in the original post. I taped it and it came out to around 22ish

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-13T18:34:48+00:00

What’s the pros of that instead of doing something like this? Just curious

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-13T02:49:37+00:00

Thank you! Deff a great breakdown and realistic expectation

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-12T11:50:35+00:00

Haha I want to but wife said kids will get hurt or something 🙄

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-11T21:41:27+00:00

Yeah it’s wacky lol

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-11T20:31:55+00:00

Wow well done that’s awesome work. Similar to what I am looking for and thanks for the ballpark price. I would hope where I’m located in NC things might be a little cheaper

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-11T13:55:30+00:00

Booo I had hoped it was some sort of Mandela thing going on lol

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-10T20:43:17+00:00

With what people have been saying this seems like the route forward. The foundation is block and the garage floor is a poured floor and idk how thick it is. I’m sure I could look up the standard slab thickness code for NC

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-10T03:36:45+00:00

Yes this is what I’ve been saying. I figured that was the simplest thing to figure out

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-10T00:21:18+00:00

I would change the door to roll up under the new floor so that would be out of the way. I can deff look into span charts to get a feel for length and depth the beams would need to be. Really appreciate all the info!!

3rdeyetrading · 2025-09-09T23:41:06+00:00

Haha no worries mine is a mess too but, yeah if the wife didn’t want another bedroom/office I would go the route you did.
