In the midst of searching for the cause of my engine light, my tech informs me that the oil I spotted on my muffler is not from the suspected clutch cover, but from my cases behind the headers. Engine has to be taken out of the bike and tore down. GREAT....

Sorry to hear brother. Not fun at all.

But I mean, it's not like it's going to take long...right? ; )

It'll be fine, because the repair will happen at Canuck Speed!

It sounds like a good opportunity to install the heat shielding around the frame.

Thanks for the support guys, I am working at my local Buell dealership now, so at least I know that I can see the work being done! The head journeyman technician is gonna do the work and he already did the shop's demo bike so Persephone is in good hands. Only a cpl weeks left in the riding season so I am just gonna ride her till the white stuff flies.

Kttemplar - GREAT idea!!!! I had not thought of that! Wonder what other '09 goodies I can throw in there??

Fresno - yes I sure have, was watching for myself in the crowd at the Calgary races! I managed to snap some pretty good action shots of the Buell team that weekend...
