Kwel beans the June up north run looks to be a good one. I Think that it should be AWESOME! lots of good food, friends, and open road. We might have to go to Pearls, a cajun resturant in Elk Rapids

Sorry I will be up in cadillac this weekend digging out our cabin. Three feet of snow once you get past the approach where the plow trucks have put 5 feet of snow just so the propane truck can make it in to fill the tank.

You will be having a lot more fun then me. We ran out of propane and now we have to dig out the propane tank and driveway so the truck can get in to fill the tank. Hopefully the two tractors start up.

Wow, it's been busy here.

Which part of up north is the june trip?

I was just visiting my parents in Sarasota and I stopped by Daytona Monday to get some test rides. I tried a TT and a Ulysses Both were great - of course anything would seem that way since I haven't been on my bike since November.

I was planning on trying the metric ST bikes so I could tell my K1200GT riding friend I still wanted a Ulysses. BMW was completely filled up and the japanese only had cruisers available by the time I finished with Buell. Buell was the only manufacturer with enough bikes so you could walk up and take a ride.

I might end up at the dragon the same time you're planning. I'll be doing a big ride with the Beemer riding friend starting a couple weeks earlier. We'll be heading through the UP, then to my brother's place in Denver. We'll take a southern route back. If there's time we'll go to the Smokies before heading home.

Is there still an association with the Brighton dealer? One of the service guys at detroit HD was talking about setting something up there. He also mentioned buying my Lighting when he saw me drooling over the Ulysses, but I don't thing I want to give it up.

Matt. That is the same dealer i bought mine from. Was the service guy named Chris? He's in his 30's and does all there Buell work. I believe he has a white xb9r.

I bought my lightning from port huron right before they got out of the Buell business.

I've talked to Kris (I think that he spells his name). He's been doing all my service. Somebody at the parts counter called him their "Buell fanatic". He already has three of them. If anybody talked to a pony-tailed guy in the Buell crew at the IMS show, that was him.

There's a second guy interested in Buells at Detroit HD. I didn't get his name. He doesn't have a Buell yet, but he wants one.

Matt you are right on his spelling, i wasn't sure so i used the common spelling. He's a nice guy and loves Buells. He is the one that works on mine when i take it to the dealer.

Try to, but he sleeps from 8 pm to 6am on week days, and on weekends 9pm to 10 am, and sleeps the whole night. I got lucky with that one.

I hear you all have rides coming up. I would like to meet fellow Buell riders. Unfortunately I can not commit to any rides just yet. I recently was laid off, so I do not know where I will be working.

Oddly enough I just interviewed at an Architectural firm that is a sister company to a Harley/Buell dealer in Taylor. Walk in and there is a Harley sitting in the waiting area.

CRG check out the middle of the page for the upcoming of events on this link.http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/37/ 263142.html?1173015184

Ok so I was bored at work and started to do a little searching on the internet for Grattan track days. For us novice riders which i think is a majority the best way would be through www.sportbiketracttime.com. They offer novice track days at Grattan on the following days for a reasonable price: May 5th and 6th, June 2nd and 3rd, July 7th and 8th, Sept 22nd and 23.

Then entry fee is $265 dollars plus a $5 track entrance fee. This is for a two day session, and they do offer a 1 day session for about half. They provided two meals half class time and half track time. Spit into groups with the oppuritunity of moving up in to the next class if you are too good on the track for Novice. The only real set back that I see is that you have to bring your own leathers (two piece if they zip together). No safety wiring until you move in to the pro class. Everything has to be tapped up though. Anyways check out the website there is a lot more info.

Went riding yesterday. Can't say enough about how nice the Pirelli Diablos are.

For those of you that don't already know, Michigan if phasing out the blue license plates, so now you get the option of the standard plate which is white with a blue bar at the top or the Spectacular Peninsulas plate with the bridge, city and trees. Both of which look horrible on a motorcycle. Oh well, I'm done bitching.

I know I'm new here, but I've been reading your post for a while, and must agree with Derek's bitchy comment about the new license plate. I have a blue S2. I know it sounds hokey, but with some hi-gloss clear coat paint, the old blue plate was almost a perfect color match for my bike. Some of the rides you have planed sound like a blast. I would like to hook-up and ride "locally" with some of you one of these days. I'm from the Garden City area. Anybody else close by???
