Author Message   Goody Posted on Sunday, March 09, 2008 - 03:44 am:        Sounds good to me.....I'll be there at 5. Mercury Blvd Hooters. Goody   Kmfw160 Posted on Sunday, March 09, 2008 - 01:33 pm:        check this out. I think this may be better than my current setup. http://www.boltlockcorp.com/   Xb12mel Posted on Sunday, March 09, 2008 - 03:49 pm:        5 it is!   Flyingyankee Posted on Sunday, March 09, 2008 - 08:03 pm:        Hey Guys: I know opnions are like A$$holes, but I have to agree with Stiguy that the coating is the way to go on the pipe. It also looks better and doesn't smell funny after it gets hot (like alot of women I used to know). The temperature will deinitely stay inside the pipe until the outlet and makes for better scavenging too. I just got mine done at American Sport Bike for about $169.   Goody Posted on Sunday, March 09, 2008 - 08:17 pm:        Mel & Matt, good to meet you guys. I enjoyed the "bench racing" and havin a beer, have to do it again. Matt doing the wheelie thing is easy....just gotta find a parking lot or somewhere outta the "Po Po's" eyes. On my way home I had some dude in a car signalling me to stand her up. I couldn't resist an audience, I left the stop light, popped her up and hit 2nd with the front end up. HeHeHe...No Po Po. Mel you gotta put the Drummer or the D&D on yur 12. You wont regret it. Goody aka Todd   Nillaice Posted on Sunday, March 09, 2008 - 08:23 pm:        i had a good time, kinda hard not too when in good company. i regret not riding today, but summer isn't even here yet. my 0.02: ceramic coating is pretty BA, but for a third of the price, i'd say header wrap is a better option, and you can re-wrap it if you have a spill. (knock on wood) i'll be wrappin mine next week. (Message edited by nillaice on March 09, 2008)   Xb12mel Posted on Monday, March 10, 2008 - 09:32 am:        Yeah.... It's alway good to have a beer with fellow Buellers! I think you should change your name Todd to "Iron-Man" (Sounds more appropriate after hearing all the war stories) I think I will definitely be looking at doing some of that wrapping cause I don't think I could take another summer roasting on my 12! Alright! Next time WE RIDE!!!   Nillaice Posted on Monday, March 10, 2008 - 03:42 pm:        where to? i'm feelin' a weekend trip to the dragon's tail (dreamin' big) i really don't know of any twisties 'round these parts. but even just for burgers is cool too.   Kmfw160 Posted on Monday, March 10, 2008 - 07:21 pm:        Tank has some nice roads by his place. Maybe he can find a good choke-n-puke in the area to stop at. There's always Mel's dad's area too.   Tank_bueller Posted on Monday, March 10, 2008 - 11:19 pm:        Roads...Pretty good! Choke-n-puke??? Much better than that. Kevin gives credit, yet has never been on the "reservoir ride". (coined phrase by Mike) Anytime any of ya'll want to roll up here...   Xb12mel Posted on Monday, March 10, 2008 - 11:37 pm:        Hey...ur right! The only thing Kev's been on was that ride where we ended up in Richmond? Hey I tell you every day almost I meet someone who says they have a Buell. I met a guy today that said he has a '08 Cherry Bomb XB9! He said that he an a buddy of his from HRHD (M2) were going up to Dinwiddie this Saturday for a "Drag and Tune". Anybody heard of this before? I'm getting the feeling that Buells aren't as rare as I thought.   Goody Posted on Tuesday, March 11, 2008 - 08:28 am:        Mel, thanks, my wife would think otherwise for my nickname, more like D&%^ or Dumb A^%...LOL You will like the wrap, its easy to put on and I think it looks good, especially the black wrap. It definitely keeps the heat down. With all my incidents (4 broke toes, 2 broke scapulas, 1 dislocated big toe, 4 broke ribs, 1 collapsed lung, 1 dislocated shoulder, contused sternum.....) Im surprised she thinks draggin the Buell is safer...LOL I guess if Im not airborne its Ok...LOL I heard there is a good ride to Richmond on Hwy 5 outta Williamsburg. Supposed to be a nice ride. You guys every ride Colonial Parkway? Lots of rangers but a nice ride. Just a thought. Goody   Xb12mel Posted on Tuesday, March 11, 2008 - 12:43 pm:        Actually the Parkway is kinda slow compared to Rt5. This week is going to be tough to stay in the office!   Kmfw160 Posted on Tuesday, March 11, 2008 - 06:15 pm:        LOL. No a 'choke-n-puke' is a food joint. Haven't ya ever seen Smokey and The Bandit? Reservoir ride. Sounds good to me. Sat morning sound good? Weather permitting of course. http://www.accuweather.com/forecast.asp?partner=ac cuweather&traveler=1&zipcode=23604&metric=0 so where is the reservoir ride located? (Message edited by kmfw160 on March 11, 2008)   Tank_bueller Posted on Tuesday, March 11, 2008 - 06:56 pm:        Just sayin' that we can do better than a choke-n-puke. Saturday could work, but I might get a late start. Might have an appointment in the AM. Reservoir ride is basically a zig-zagging loop west of the Burg' into New Kent.   Goody Posted on Wednesday, March 12, 2008 - 09:38 am:        Count me in!! Im off Saturday, where and when? Im there. Goody   Tank_bueller Posted on Wednesday, March 12, 2008 - 05:26 pm:        My Saturday appointment is confirmed for 9am. Let's say 10:30 at McD's Busch Gardens. And like Kev said, Weather Permitting! If it rains Fri night, the roads up here will be wet all day. I'll keep an eye on the weather and post up the conditions early Saturday morning(well, by 8am at least)   S1wmike Posted on Wednesday, March 12, 2008 - 05:46 pm:        I might be picking the Duc up on Saturday, but if not 10:30 is good for me.   Kmfw160 Posted on Thursday, March 13, 2008 - 12:32 pm:        I'm engaged with helping friends move in the pm Sat. Maybe Sun afternoon for me. I'll post up if the weather is good. I'm lookin at 1:30 ish Sun.   04blaster Posted on Thursday, March 13, 2008 - 09:45 pm:        hey guys just heard about this yesterday and me and a couple of my friends are gonna ride up there. http://www.cycleprousa.com/showinfo.cfm?showid=112 The route is still open for discussion. I think Mel was suggesting Route 5. (Message edited by 04blaster on March 13, 2008)   Nillaice Posted on Thursday, March 13, 2008 - 11:19 pm:        hmmmmmmm.......... the bike show would be cool, but i wouldn't be spending the night. i'd have to leave the back pack at home so i'm not as tempted to buy a bunch of crap. i'd also like to just ride out for a 'smoke-n-joke' probably at a 'choke-n-puke type of establishment. i've got the whole weekend free'd up now that i'm done putting in my hardwood floor. when and where?   Xb12mel Posted on Friday, March 14, 2008 - 07:56 am:        Alright... I'm cleared for take off. Can we get a final count for Saturday? I've got a "tag along" (CBR900) Neighbor and need to determine if Saturday at 10:30 is still the Weekend Ride. I'll start off the count in the weekend rides section.   Goody Posted on Friday, March 14, 2008 - 10:32 am:        Im in Mel, Mickey D's on 60, outside of Busch Gardens right? I'll be there. Looking forward to it. See ya'll there. Goody   Xb12mel Posted on Friday, March 14, 2008 - 03:51 pm:        Yeah...it'll be the one with all the pretty bikes in the parking lot!   Flyingyankee Posted on Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 06:33 pm:        Hey Guys OBX Bike week is from April 24 to April 27th. I would like to organize a ride for Saturday, April 26th. S1W Mike and I discussed this earlier, and now that I have a date nailed down, we can set this up. We'll meet at the state line rest area on 17 at 8:30am (?), then head to Kitty Hawk HD for starters, then hit the strand. Who's with me?   S1wmike Posted on Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 06:36 pm:        Hey Yankee I'm in.   Flyingyankee Posted on Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 06:47 pm:        Cool! Find out who else would like to go, Mike, I left a message for M2nc and Ulywife oover at C3. I'd like to get as many Buells as we can. I have 2 buddys I ride with (the HD guys I told you about) they'll be along too, but they're used to following my tailight...   Goody Posted on Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 07:08 pm:        Yankee, Saturday works for me...Im off. I'll check with the boss and be ready. Mike I had a blast today...learned a lot about twisties, had to rethink all my motocross riding though. However wheelies are universal... LOL Tank that ride was awesome, Im bringin my gps next time to record trip. Definitely want to do that again. (Message edited by goody on March 15, 2008)   04blaster Posted on Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 07:45 pm:        Great ride guys. I think everyone had a great time. Ohh yeah you know what they say "It's not a good ride until something falls off" LOL   Nillaice Posted on Saturday, March 15, 2008 - 08:39 pm:        nice to meet you everybody face to face. i really enjoyed those twisties!! thanks, Tank_ i only got a little bit lost on the way home.....i really should get a gps.
