Author Message   Jlnance Posted on Monday, July 10, 2006 - 10:39 pm:        I knew it was a long shot. Hows the cat?   Aydenxb9 Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 08:47 am:        Hey Brankin, What's up with the S-2?   Wes12185 Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 11:55 am:        He got scratched across the face inc. the eye a few days ago so he could be better, but they're no longer talking about the possibility of him losing it which is good. So, any other good days to go with more then an hours notice :-P Tell Rebecca next time to offer to watch them tomorrow of whatever day it is at 6:45, that should be plenty of time for me to check the forum. But do it nicely and make her think it was her idea, because otherwise it will never work.   U4euh Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 12:13 pm:        Welcome back Tim, get that bike going, love to meet you at the ride. Jim-yes, it was long shot. Wes- P2 is better than P1, you'll be laughing a lot! How bout a good ride Thur. or Friday?   Xb9ser Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 07:52 pm:        Just got from deals gap this afternoon had a great time with some fellow bad webbers. I posted some pics on Quick board (hello from the dragon thread).   Jlnance Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 09:33 pm:        Brankin - I thought about you this morning   U4euh Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 09:50 pm:        Do you do that also Jim? I find myself looking for the # 1313 as I scoot around different places. Seen it a few times, but never had the camera. Brankin you have infected us with that #. Glenn-sounds like it was interesting to say the least!! Glad you all had fun, and reletively a safe trip.   Jlnance Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 10:28 pm:        Jim - I saw it on Monday. I took the Camera on Tuesday. :-)   U4euh Posted on Tuesday, July 11, 2006 - 10:52 pm:        Are you and Wes gonna ride this week? I'd like to get away for a good ride, I don't care if it is cruising around town! Let me know.   Jlnance Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 05:54 am:        u4 - I don't think I am. I've got to go get tricia on Thurs & Fri   Wes12185 Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 10:23 am:        I'll still go, I get off work at probably 4:30 or so today and probably need to be home sometime around 7 or a little after, or we can try to do something tomorrow or friday. (I keep thinking today is thursday for some reason and its almost the weekend.)   Ram Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 10:35 am:        Tell Rebecca . . . but do it nicely and make her think it was her idea, because otherwise it will never work. Hey, Wes BOO! With that kind of subtle maneuvering, you could be a politician! Welcome to C3. I'm glad Jim's got another riding buddy. Rebecca   U4euh Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 11:16 am:        Hey Wes, how about Friday? You get off work at 4:30 then? Jinance-I still got some stuff for you, just keep forgetting to mail it out. Maybe if we were to get a ride together, I'll bring it and drop it at your house, just need directions!   Wes12185 Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 11:28 am:        Jim, I think rebecca may be on to our plan, but it could still work. You just have to be particularly careful about making sure she thinks its her idea. yea, friday should be 430ish, could probably do 4 since its a friday but it just depends on whats going on. If we end up in or around raleigh friday I can show you where jim lives if you want to drop whatever he have for him off on the porch or something. Actually, he lives right down the road from me so even if we don't I can just bring a backpack and drop it off on my way home.   U4euh Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 12:15 pm:        Sounds good, where should we meet at? Directions would help, I know where Michael's, UNC, Rayprice, and the fairgrounds are at!   Wes12185 Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 02:42 pm:        UNC isn't in raleigh, unless you mean NC State. Other then that, pretty much anywhere is fine to meet, which is closest to you?   Sportymark Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 03:42 pm:        For Jim or whoever, the wheel goes back on along with the new brakepads. Not really a fan of the dunlop, but the price was right(free)   Jlnance Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 06:30 pm:        Sporty - We've been debating the Blast Nut Mystrey on the Blast group. Apparently Ralph's 00 and 01 both have 30 mm nuts. The current theory is that at some point the bike was serviced, and someone put a different nut on. Probably a 1 1/8 inch, which is almost 29 mm. Or maybe the nuts are just smaller on a girl bike?   Jlnance Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 06:40 pm:        Why don't you guys meet at the fairgrounds by the electric sign thats on the corner of blue ridge and hillsboro st. Even if I can't ride with you, I can probably swing by to say hi.   Xb9ser Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 08:07 pm:        Twig I talked to the tool guy at work and he will order the t27 torx but it might take two weeks to get it as it will have to come with a larger order. He didn't know price right off but I think it was about $5.67 If you need it right away I'll send you mine. If any one else needs a 27 torx 1/4 drive let me know and I'll order more.I'll let you know exact price when I find out.   M2nc Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 09:48 pm:        Hey guys, back up from the beach for a class but am going back. You have been busy in the past couple of days, we have not been. Just sitting by the pool or in the hot tub and walking down to the beach for a walk and ride some waves. Its been relaxing for the most part. I am off to the beach talk more when we get back Saturday. Pulled a nice first gear wheelie on the way up by the way. A woman in an SUV paying attention to I do not know what came up behind me on US-58 in Trenton. A truck pulling a trailer had traffic backup and I thought I was toast when she did not slow it down from 70+mph with traffic going 35mph. When I thought she finally had it under control she got on it again and kept crowding me even though I had backed off the truck in front of me and had no where to go. Finally I have room to pass and so I do, she follows. I take it to 75mph in 45mph and she follows. Finally I come in hot to a stop sign and she does too! So I open it up and as the revs passed 5000rpm the front tire lifts and points to the sky. You should have see the guy in the minivan coming the other way, he dropped his jaw. I bang second gear and run it to 85mph. Even if she wanted too, she could not follow! I think she got the point because she never came close to me again. See you later!   Jlnance Posted on Wednesday, July 12, 2006 - 11:16 pm:          Twig Posted on Thursday, July 13, 2006 - 04:36 am:        Thanks Glenn...I did'nt find anything at Sears last weekend. I do have a fold up set I can use if needed. Just send a pm when it comes in. Oh, enjoyed the Dragon pics. I'm sure you guys had a great time. Take care..   Wes12185 Posted on Thursday, July 13, 2006 - 12:08 pm:        so tomorrow at 430 under the big flashing sign is what we decided?   1313 Posted on Thursday, July 13, 2006 - 08:01 pm:        Jim (Nance), That totally kicks arse! How appropriate - Party Playland at 1313. Jim (Rainey), You guys are not the only ones 'affected' by my use of 1313...I will leave it at that... As for the Blast! graphic I posted a while back: Again here in negative - after scanning it only in black and white: It is slightly different than the 1st year graphics... Very similar - yes, but slightly different. Different in Every Sense, perhaps? Speaking of colors and graphics, by tomorrow (sometime) we should know exactly what's in store for the 2007 model year line up for Buell. Christmas in July, maybe more so if Buell would actually make a sport tourer based off the XB12R (instead of considering the Ulysses as the S3-T replacement) and if I could afford a new bike at this time... So, what is everyone in C-3 expecting for 2007 (both realistically and wishfully)? 1313   Jlnance Posted on Thursday, July 13, 2006 - 09:00 pm:        New kickstands on the Uly   Aydenxb9 Posted on Thursday, July 13, 2006 - 09:55 pm:        So, what is everyone in C-3 expecting for 2007 (both realistically and wishfully)? Realistically-colors and graphics. Wishfully-A water cooled super bike with an engine from a supplier other than Harley? Well, maybe next year.................   U4euh Posted on Friday, July 14, 2006 - 12:33 pm:        WES-I cannot make it today, if someone has his phone number pleas call and let him know. I can do tomoorow or Sunday, but stuff that will be closed weekend, I have to take care of. Plus the weather outside here is not looking good. Call me 910-585-1024 This is my new cell number for those of you that had my old one.   Zxzer04 Posted on Friday, July 14, 2006 - 12:55 pm:        hey uly owners....Camo body parts and a triple tail Pad. Hint: Kristy   Wes12185 Posted on Friday, July 14, 2006 - 12:56 pm:        Thats cool, I'm supposed to help the g/f paint tomorrow but sunday is fine by me. Maybe jim can make it out then? On an unrelated note, is anyone good with the electrical side of firebolts, my headlights are flaking out for some reason. I went in, fixed them, then they were down again like 2 minutes later. (And I spent my whole lunch brake working on them, so now I'm hungry and have nothing to show for it)
