I was checking my entry list for the Pikes Peak Hill Climb 2009...and see that Brian Anderson is entered on a 1125CR....time to see the funky creation race! Mark your calendars for this year's race....July 19th!   Jcbikes Posted on Saturday, February 28, 2009 - 06:22 pm:        Denver bueller meeting sunday (tomorrow) at 10:00am at red rocks grill in morrison. will probably do a group ride afterward. JC   Jumpinjewels Posted on Saturday, February 28, 2009 - 08:12 pm:        Hi guys, I'm in the market for a track only bike. Either a Kawasaki Ninja ZX6, Yamaha R6 or GSXR6. Looking to spend no more than $3500. Nothing older than a 2000. If anyone knows anybody out there that might have something, send them my way. Thanks   Jcbikes Posted on Saturday, February 28, 2009 - 09:32 pm:        Julie, John Fifield in the club has a Yamaha R-6 TRACK BIKE that he purchased last summer for his wife to learn to race on. She found out she was pregnant and i think decided not to to this -I think that was the reason. Anyhow, i might be seeing him tomorrow and will ask him if he would like to sell it. Just a thought. John   Jumpinjewels Posted on Saturday, February 28, 2009 - 09:46 pm:        Hey, thanks John. That would be great. Let me know. Have a great day tomorrow. Dan and I will be going out for a ride after church. He is still very happy about his bike, it is running great. He also said that if you wanted to know what he did with the muffler to let him know and he can give you the specifics. He is very pleased with how it turned out.   Zac4mac Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 09:03 am:        Howz bout meeting up at the junction of 25/34 in Loveland. 34 to Estes and 36 to Lyons and home? Easy roads for an early ride, should be around 50 up top if it's 70 on the flats... If y'all need any parts, come see me today - 10% off Buell parts and accessories - special orders included... Z   Jcbikes Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 09:40 am:        Z, it was suggested last night that we might do our ride after breakfast today, up your way and maybe stop at your dealership to get the tire gauge if you still have them. If we get up that way i will stop in. JC   Jcbikes Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 09:43 am:        Julie, Tell Dan i am interested in the details of his modification to the stock muffler. i modified mine and it runs good but always looking for something better. I have an extra muffler. John   F_skinner Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 09:51 am:        Looks like a good day for a ride. I will be working on a friends Sportster today. He is a new HD owner and willing to learn. I really like working on bikes but I love it when the owners want to learn. You all have a safe ride today. Frank   Zac4mac Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 10:57 am:        Dunno about the tire gauges... Dave has them and no Sales staff on Sunday.. I'm getting ready to go in, I'll see what I can do. No promises.... Z   Fireboltwillie Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 12:14 pm:        Zac, is the route you proposed for wednesday? if so, sounds good.   Jcbikes Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 09:52 pm:        Z, thanks, the guys decided to go west into the hills instead. JC   Jcbikes Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 09:54 pm:        Julie, I talked to John today about the R6. He was thinking of maybe using it as a spare race bike but with think about it. John   Jumpinjewels Posted on Sunday, March 01, 2009 - 10:01 pm:        Thanks John. If he decides to sell it let me know. Hope you guys had a nice ride today. We went for a 90 mile ride and tried out our new video camera. It worked well. Got about 55 minutes of riding video.   Jcbikes Posted on Monday, March 02, 2009 - 03:11 pm:        Sounds good Julie. Let know about Dan's muffler mod. John   Zac4mac Posted on Monday, March 02, 2009 - 04:38 pm:        Bad news... my schedule just changed and I'll be working Wednesday. New days off will be Thu-Fri again. Y'all stop by after the ride and tell me what I missed. Zack   Fireboltwillie Posted on Monday, March 02, 2009 - 05:50 pm:        zac, can i borrow loretta? (kidding) vortec, still up for a ride?   Jumpinjewels Posted on Monday, March 02, 2009 - 09:38 pm:        Well, I think I've had a change of heart. Decided not to purchase a track specific bike. After careful thinking, it's not worth spending the $$$ for a bike to be used only a few times in a year. Anyway, riding my own bike will give me more feel for how it works both on and off the track. John, Dan said he would PM you about the muffler   Jcbikes Posted on Monday, March 02, 2009 - 11:23 pm:        Julie, I understand where you are coming from on the track bike. I think to have one takes a certain amount of financial commitment and it could be a big one. I think using your buell to race on occasion will just make you a better rider on that bike. Tell Dan thanks in advance. John   Jumpinjewels Posted on Tuesday, March 03, 2009 - 08:32 pm:        We got our new tires in today for the bikes. We got the ContiForceMax. Boy do they look sweet. The tread stops about 1 1/2" before the edge of the tire so they should do real well on the track. They're rated for both street and track. CAN'T WAIT to get them on the track in April.   Zac4mac Posted on Thursday, March 05, 2009 - 01:21 pm:        Jeff, Will... did y'all get out yesterday? I was pooped, just got out of bed a few minutes ago. Very windy here, may go out for a short ride later if it calms down. Z   Fireboltwillie Posted on Thursday, March 05, 2009 - 04:03 pm:        just did a short lunch ride. as in i rode to the dive and ate. pretty lame on my part. just too much work to do.   Vortec57 Posted on Thursday, March 05, 2009 - 05:50 pm:        I made it out for a while yesterday. Good little ride considering the wind. Was the maiden voyage for the bike after all my work and new gaskets. very happy to see no oil drips anywhere after a couple hours of riding. Windy as snot today.   Jcbikes Posted on Thursday, March 05, 2009 - 06:29 pm:        Was planning on a quick ride to Deckers today. Went up the canyon from Morrison to Evergreen (clean road) then over to Conifer. In Conifer the wind was so bad that I decided to get my butt back home - straight back 285. Glad I got out.
