Hey Pat (its Wes), shoot me an e-mail if you could i want to talk Daytona gearing with you. Bummer about the Vincent...That changes my plans drastically as i just about had the XBRR ready to go! Definitely want to run it with the vincent to have the two baddest air cooled V-twin race bikes ever out there. Back to the 1125's now...sounds like there will be at least 4 or 5 1125's! bring on the ducati's, Duck season is almost hear! | ||

Wes, voicemail sent re Daytona gearing etc. 186bigtwin, the Irving Vincent owner got back to me and said....... "200mph sounds good (you can't let the truth get in the way of a good story)" !!!! So I have no idea! You'd have to think it would be around 180? Ken told me it was making 165hp on the dyno, and he was expecting 180+hp on the new 4 valve motor. It doesn't look heavy either and the aerodynamics don't look bad? | ||

Some body needs to bring a radar gun to the Daytona front straight and gets speeds falling out of NASCAR turn 4. It's 50 ft tall !!!! | ||

To Manxboy: Any idea about gearing for Daytona with Buell race pipe and race ECU? I do have the chain drive swingarm set-up and have 17 & 18T countershaft sprockets and 42-44-46-48 rear sprockets. I would like to be sure I am bringing something close for both Savannah & Daytona. | ||

Who all is headed to Daytona? | ||
| Manxboy |
Court, I will be @ Daytona with AHRMA on Monday and Tuesday on my 1125R in BOTT F1 and Sound of Thunder (and my Manx Norton in Premier 500) Skipbr, 17-44 should be very close @ Daytona depending upon wind direction etc. Roebling Rd I'm starting at 17-46 (I've not run my 1125R there yet) | ||
| Bison |
Court and All Walt #221 and I will be there racing my 1125r in the 200. We have a very tight budget this year so may not have a garage. Look us up anyway and say hello. ref | ||
| Smoke |
there for CCS and AHRMA. good luck Dick and Walt!!! tim | ||
| Paint_shaker |
racing CCS and spectating for AMA. | ||
| 186bigtwin |
Looking forward to seeing all at the AHRMA races, anyone racing a pushrod motor in BOTT F-1? | ||
| Smoke |
the pushrod motor will be more competitive in formula 2 although there is no reason it can't run in formula 1 with AHRMA. good luck, tim | ||
| Manxboy |
Tim (Smoke) Just read on the AHRMA website that anyone racing CCS on Sunday needs to "contact Cindy Cowell @ ccowell@ahrma.org NOW". Reference not being able to get to Sundays riders meeting and tech. See you @ Daytona! Pat. | ||
| Shred |
I'll be there for practice on Friday and Team Challenge on Sat. Smoke, Thanks for ride in the Team Challenge. I've always wanted to race a Buell. | ||
| Paint_shaker |
Shred, Looking forward to the Team Challenge with you Tim and Tom! It should be a blast!! BIG thanks to Tim/Smoke for asking me to ride! (Message edited by Paint_shaker on February 03, 2010) | ||

Pat, i think i spurred that announcement. i received the AHRMA mag and noticed prereg was by friday and on the website arrangements needed to have been made by Jan25 if the tech, rider meetings etc. were a problem for sunday. i sent an email and Cindy emailed me back so i'm good. see you in Daytona and i promise not to cause the red flag this time after you take the lead  tim | ||
| Manxboy |
Tim, Hopefully there will be no red flags at all! Good luck to all doing the CCS and AMA races also. Hope to meet some of you @ Daytona, and let's get some great results to say thanks to Mr Buell for all his hard work! | ||
| Xoptimizedrsx |
I'll be there with wrenches in hand for Paintshaker. | ||
| 186bigtwin |
Anyone know if the Sundance team from Japan is attending the AHRMA races this year?? | ||
| Manxboy |
186Bigtwin, unfortunately they will not be here for Daytona, but I have been trying to encourage Takesan to come over for Barbers in October, leave the bike with me, then come back for Dayton 2011. They already have left a lot of their race gear with me from their last trip over. Takesan did send their interpreter (Adam) over for Barbers '09 on a "scouting" mission, he took loads of photos and went back with a glowing review, so hopefully they'll be here later this year. Their race bike is very special and beautiful, as you well know. It would be great to see them here along with the Irving Vincent....... | ||

Almost forgot, I'll be on the red Buell with the #544 on tht white number plate. Looks like I will be racing Xopti's bike too... Black Buell, full fairing #544 white number plate. | ||
| 186bigtwin |
Thanks for that info Manxboy, that would be great, I go to the Barbers event also. | ||

will be heading to roebling road and daytona with ahrma also look me up buellers. also looking for a chain conversion kit. any help anyone? | ||
| Playhard |
02m2, Pete at Grandstand Designs sells a conversion kit. He is currently out of stock on new ones but he did have a used one he could sell. Erick Buell Racing has the nice adjustable swingarm kit for a chain conversion. I just bought a FreeSpirits adjustable tension from Twin Motorcycles, Chain from ebay, rear sprocket from Vortex, and eboos from this site donated me a front sprocket. | ||
| 02m2 |
thanks playhard. talk to pete today | ||

I will be there to help crew for Walt Sipp in the Daytona 200, 1125r Bike #221 Go Buell!!! | ||
| Smoke |
looking good for Buell at Daytona!! two for sure in the 200 and good representation in CCS and AHRMA. i'm sure that ASRA will still have a contingent as well. Jason Padilla was preregistered with WERA on an 1125r last weekend at Talladega but was a no show due to illness. mine worked good at Talladega but the conditions were less than optimal. 2nd in HVWT novice solo, 8th in A superstock, 2nd in HVWT superbike and my first win ever was in HVWT superstock. small grid in HVWT, just John Moore and i, there were 5 DNS in HVWT races. SEE Y'ALL IN DAYTONA!! tim | ||

looking good for Buell at Daytona!! two for sure in the 200 ... I only see one in the 37 entries at http://www.amaproracing.com/rr/events/entrylist.cf m?eid=2010011005&class=DS Who is the other? | ||
| Trojan |
Looking at the entries for Daytona Sportbike it seems that number 125 Ryan Patterson has somewhat of an unfair advantage in machine terms  | ||
