BS... Congrats on the child... I didn't know until all this came up... well I can only imagine the pressure...
BS & NEW,
We love to ride... it's what we do when life stops beaming down rays of sunshine and starts throwing hand fulls of horse $#!T... so when something like this happens where will you be? without your Buell¿ friends don't let friends drive drunk... why the hell should we let them go pshyco? I think we would buy your drinks for a night at the bar, so let us pitch in some money towards a fix... never know when one of our broke asses might need some love  |

I think you guys need a laugh.
Three Rednecks were working up on a cell phone tower--Cooter, Pete and KC.
As they start their descent Cooter slips, falls off the tower and is killed instantly.
As the ambulance takes the body away, Pete says, "Well, shucks, someone should go and tell his wife."
KC says, "OK, I'm pretty good at that sensitive stuff, I'll do it."
Two hours later, he comes back carrying a case of Budweiser. Pete says, "Where did you get that beer, KC?"
"Cooter's wife gave it to me," KC replies.
"That's unbelievable, you told the lady her husband was dead and she gave you beer?"
Well, not exactly", KC says. "When she answered the door, I said to her, You must be Cooter's widow'."
She said, "You must be mistaken, I'm not a widow.".... then I said "I'll bet you a case of Budweiser you are."

B_S...
Man I hate to hear about the problems with your bike.
Yesterday marked the anniversary of my misfortune.
I know it seems like the end but I believe your priorities are in order.
Unfortunately mine were not.
You are considering budget and family first and that says a lot.
My bike was my only priority at the time and just about everything in my life is still f-ed up a a result!
I recently found a great house that I really want and cannot get financing on it because of the motor fiasco.
I refinanced the bike and maxed out my cards to cover the down payments etc.
As a result, my credit score has fallen over 100 points in the last year.
My cards are still maxed, my bike needs parts I can't afford and I have lived in 3 different places since October.
Life continues to throw me curves and I am getting tired of swinging at the most inopportune time.
Anyway homie...
the moral of the story is keep your priorities in line and everything else will come together.
focus on your goals and achieve em one by one.
try to avoid looking at the big picture as it will always seem overwhelming. |

Will, I really feel ya on this one, at least you can work and dont have a broken neck!
Hell I went back to work today only to come to the conclusion I really hate my job, Even though I try to find the good I just hate everything about it. I am going to use this misfortune as a time to grow and move on to the next step, whatever that is.
I can rebuild your motor, no sweat just blood money!! Remember it is only nuts and bolts!
Just be like me at march badness and ride everyone else's bikes! Clown already told me not to worry that I would have bikes to ride, cuz I prolly wont be on my own for the rest of the year.
I have pretty much decided the R needs to stay on the track. This means I need something that wont wheelie for street riding and that is not in my budget for sure.
Yall have seen me ride, and some have seen me crash! I have a little one coming too and need to re-evaluate my street riding persona, I still will ride with yall but I need to be on a different horse for sure.
OH, and if yall want to help me out just look for really cheap or free parts for me,
Wheels
Forks
Upper and lower triples
brake line
clip ons
grips
throttle
throttle cables
ecm
clutch
primary cover
all shif linkage
levers and perches/master cyl
rotor
pads
fender
front fairing support
front fairing
windscreen
wiring harness
steering stem
steering head bearings
header
both sets of controls on handlebars
gauge cluster
oil cooler
oil cooler scoop
and some other stuff I forgot. |

Oh shit, all this heavy talk!
Well let me lighten it up a bit.
I have to give major props to Jeff and the guys at Cycle Gear.
I just wasn't too happy with the Frank Thomas suit, so gave Jeff a call and he says to come by and they'll make sure I leave happy.
I did.
For 68 bucks more I let with an Alpine Stars one piece.
It fits like a glove!
Now remember I said I'd lighten things up a bit, so here goes...

dam whDam when craziness attacks it attacks 07 has been pretty insane for all parties here from what I see can’t wait to catch up with yall again don’t know when that will be but some time and with out a doubt in March just hope it is not that long. Hell I hardly have time to check the forum any more. I’ll give you guys a call one of these weekends when life isn’t going a million miles a second and get some good riding in. It sucks the 3 trips to nc (all interstate) for family visits has worn a chicken strip I can’t get rid of got to get a new tire so between that and the cold that I really don’t want to break from my tuck I am looking forward to some good hang time.
Oh BS here is the name of an herb that is great for stress and not too expensive check it out I take it and can tell a difference. Sold over the counter at most health food or supplement stores. Might work for ya Rhodiola |

True story.
This guy at work is very funny and just a plain old country boy. Yesterday him and his wife went to a beauty salon to get there hair cut. His wife went first and then he took his place in the chair. Of course him being Harold ,he was setting there all relaxed with his legs crossed. The lady walks over to him ,ready to start cutting and she asked him if he would uncross his legs. He replies by saying ,honey do not bother with that down there I will take care of that when I get home. I just want the hair on my head cut for now.

Open your own motorcycle speed shop. It's either that or be an astronaut, and I don't think they'll let you wheelie the space shuttle. |

3%ER TEAR DOWN PARTY @ DIRTY SANCHEZ'S HOUSE.
FRIDAY NIGHT UNTIL WE ARE TOO DRUNK TO TURN A WRENCH.
Bring some beer for a good 'ol time.
I'm gonna go over to Sanchez's house after work on Friday around 5:00 and start tearing down the pony to find out what she looks like from the inside. Ya'll are welcome to come and lend a hand and knowledge. It will be fun and a time to just hang out and BS a little. Hell, you might even learn a thing or two about your own bike. |

That's a start, after all, you didn't get where you are over night.
where's cycle gear?
The one I go to is at 316 and Colins Hill in Lawrenceville.
And yes New Enough is killer. Never had a deal go bad with them, and their prices are hard to beat.
anybody know anything about sidi boots?
I like mine. They're excellent boots.

Will Charlie, Clown was most kind lending me numerous bikes at last years MB while my sled was t1ts up (much thanks again). Even if he did have to use a fire hose to get me off the Street Rod... Buell should advertise that in it's sales brochures, "Owning a Buell means you'll get to ride more bikes than a Cycle World test monkey". Luckly I still have my KZ750, thou the head gasket is weeping now and it's only 28 years old, POS! |

Directions to Sanchez' house please! I have to work Friday & Saturday, but I don't mind going in tired and feeling like shit on Saturday. I prolly won't get there til about 20:00.
M1A65,4,3,2,1 - A KZ750...Cool. I still miss my KZ1000. It was silver with a custom fairing and looked just like Jim Gooses Kwaka in Mad Max...I miss that bike.  |

Hi Dan, I bet you do. I've had the Kow for 20+ years, bought it as a wee little shaver while in the military fresh outta basic. Rode it in europe when I was courting momma and everywhere in between. I have 2 other KZ parts bikes one of which will get chopped when I get a minute of spare time! That and a 70 Trumpet for my boy which is on the waaay back burner. |
