Got a response today, guess it got his attention

After thanking me for my interest and service, he said he should have something by the end of Feb, and will let me know when it's ready.

Hmmm... now I may have a choice to make... Drummer or Spec Ops?
Special OPS is certain to be cheaper... However, you might not have much of a choice to make... whichever one comes out first...

1) Stop buying shit!
I now have a pair of short cuff Power Trip gloves, AGV gauntlets, Cortech gauntlets, Cortech winter gloves, and hopefully a pair of A* GP Plus I found on another forum, Cortech mesh jacket, A* Spinner jacket, A* Stunt 2 jacket, Fieldsheer leather pants, A* leather pants, JR race boots, Sidi touring boots. Cortech riding jeans, Draggin jeans, Icon insulated jeans, 3-4 different shields for my helmet, Icon knee guards... Have I forgotten anything?

2) Maybe pick up another RF-1000.
3) Another pair of riding jeans.

Really think special ops will be cheaper?

The badweb guess is the Drummer is gonna run ~$700-800
I know I like the sound of the Drummer, like ebbs said it needs a chin fairing though.

As for delivery time... Odie says end of feb first part of March will be production. Doesn't seem to be a long waiting list for his pipe, but it's not the being drooled over on badweb either.
Drummer, Kevin has materials in for 10 production units. Still waiting on dyno results from the prototype. My guess is there will only be about a week diff in the delivery time, and there is a longer waiting list (from what people talk) for the Drummer.

Honestly it will come down to looks and sound. I know both of these guys will make sure it performs at least as good as the stocker.
I am just looking to drop a couple pounds and get some rumble out of the bitch!

Negative.
Prior to this email from Odie, there has been no WORD of a special ops prototype. I kind of like this as it means there is a better chance I can get one quicker.
