Oh yeah, Zac, that is a 2009 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic that my girlfriend just picked up for $5K. It may not shake one silly, but it is a smooth riding and shifting bike. I think think she made a great choice. |

Just used my token for a free 2009 credit report. My FICO score is 782! The reason HD finance didn't have that information is because they only pulled a report from TransUnion, which for some reason doesn't have any information on me. The other two reporting agencies do.
Time to visit the bank and see what I can get. I have a truck and two Buells that are paid for that I can put up as collateral. As you can imagine, things like this get me fired up. |

Hey Frank,
What year is your 1125R? I ask because I like the finish on the rims. I have the midnite 1125R and I really don't like the finish on it. By the way when is the ride? I would like to meet with other Buell riders. |

Oh there will certainly be a full report. We are already thinking of changing some colors ie putting the cherry bomb airbox and the red wheels. I think that will be real pretty. We'll have to get some parts to swap out the rear wheel. I think the front one is no problem.
I am getting sooooooo excited. I may not be able to sleep tonite. All we have to do tomorrow is sign the paperwork as everything is done. 5.99% interest, not bad.
CAN'T WAIT 
OMGosh, I'M SO EXCITED!!!!!!! |

I can't wait, either, but I'll probably sleep good. My only defense for when family asks why I am so crazy is: "It's a Buell". |

Very impressive Lynn!
Congratulations!!!!!
Y'all should swing by on your ways home today.
I'm still home sick.
Congested, still coughing some, getting better slowly.
Hope to be back at work in a day or two now.
Played in the garage for an hour or so yesterday and had to take a nap afterward.

Hey Zac. Just thought I would check up on that cover (Rev C) for my bike. Any word? |

Zac, hope you get to feeling better. Sorry we did not stop by but it is good to be home.
I think we have a couple of new Buell riders in Colorado. My friend Eric went up to get a 1125CR and ended up with a XB12XT (2008).
Jody, Julie, Dan, Steve and of course Dave and Bones it was great to see you all again. What a crazy day to be at the best Buell dealer in Colorado. I am still waiting for my salesman of the month award LOL.
Random pics.
What happens when you get a Masters Degree? You start riding a Buell. Lynn and her 2009 XB12Scg.
This was in the shop. For you XB and 1125 riders that do not have a clue it is a 1995 S2.

Hope u get better soon Zac. Total time for this flu bug is 7-10 days or so.
We are heading home now with a new CR. I rode it a little in the business area and WOW. I'm a little nervous tho cause I'll have to be on one foot or the other. Can't touch with both feet  . Oh well. New learning curve
will get pics on when we get home. |

Just one Julie???
It sure was good to see you and Dan again. I look forward to pics. The Black CR is one sexy bike.
I hear it is faster than the red and almost as fast as the white. |

Apparently I don't have the flu, at least not H1N1.
Doc said "upper respiratory infection".
Heavy congestion, lotsa coughing, a little fever a couple of days ago.
I don't like antibiotics, so it's running it's course naturally.
Sounds like I'll go back to work Monday or Tuesday.
Really wish I could have gone to E. Troy for the "Last Ride" but oh well.
Also wish I could have been at the Shop today, Frank said it was... busy.
Congratulations to Lynn for her degree and ALL of you for you latest acquisitions.
A bunch of you are going to find out fast why I love Loretta so much!!

Zac, I do not think you could have stayed behind the parts counter today. Everyone was there. It is great to just to see enthusiastic Buell riders hanging out. That could not have happened at any other dealership.
Bones and Dave were running around and trying to get butts into the right bikes. I have a feeling Russ was super busy as well.
I am glad you do not have the swine flu. Your co-worker at the parts counter wanted me to tell you thanks for getting him sick. |

Hey Zac, I am glad you don't have H1N1.. .....
Also a big hug back to you.... .......I am sorry we missed you today.. ....but I am glad you were resting at home....and We were so tired from the graduation and all the exceitment with the bikes, that when we got home, I put the P'J's on right away and just chilling now....take care, Lynn |

Zac, get well soon dang it. Sorry you missed out on the East Troy trip. I have it on good authority that the red CR is definitely the fastest color, that is why it came with the traxxion grips! Lots to sort out on the new bike. The first thing to sort out is some additional income. I hope we can all get together soon and have you give us all a tutorial.
It was great seeing so many Buelligans at the shop today. I think the staff were starting to notice. I almost had the patch lady sew on an upside down HD eagle like Frank got, but I didn't want the staff to think it was in any way a bad reflection on them. So maybe I will go by Pikes Peak if they have a patch lady there and get it done. |

Glad everyone got home safely. And Zac, it may not be the H1N1, but believe me, in my line of work you got yourself a viral infection. And glad you're not taking antibiotics, they don't help for virus's.
Before we left, Dan asked Dave to keep a lookout for another CR, preferably black. So there may be another one in our stall in the future.
Dan's already adjusted the suspension for me, rear passengers pegs off, feelers off, cherry bomb red airbox on. This is just the beginning. When we get the proper parts we'll be putting the red cherry bomb wheels on.
Oh and Zac, do you have any idea where to find moto-gp shifting parts (kit)for the CR. Dan did see some info on this but didn't save it as a favorite and is having a hard time find it again.
It definitely was great seeing everyone and Lynn, as soon as the weather turns nice again we must get together and ride (or sooner)

This is at the dealer (ignore the birkenstocks) I brought boots to take my test ride in.

But I like the birkenstocks, very California!
Bones gave me the parts catalog that includes a moto-gp shifter kit in the racing parts section, page 5. I was reading up on the de-noiding procedure last night. I didn't experience it on my ride down to Castle Rock, but I can imagine the words coming out of my mouth if it did. That would be a great group project if anyone wants to get together to do it.
Frank and Lynn, I hope y'all are both in bed just relaxing today. Lynn needs her rest so she can start pounding the pavement this week. Have you found a climate controlled garage yet? |

Thanks Jody, found the GP shifting info. We'll be looking into changing the gearing. It's trying to snow up here today. Was hoping to try and get out for a short ride but I guess that's not going to happen today. Dan's going to install the wiring so we can get the heated gear working.
Oh well, spring is just around the corner!!!! |

Dan is COOL. Brand new bike and already making changes. Ask Lynn about what I did to the Uly when I brought it home.
I am going to have to get rid of a bike or two. I just made room in the garage for the two bikes coming tomorrow. Lynn told me to move the project to the basement which I was more than happy to do.
Weather really sucks today.
Of all the bikes I have which one do you all think I would get rid of first.
Here is the list
95 S2 (number 35 of 1399)
95 S2 (number 304 of 1399)
96 S2T (number 95 of 498)
96 S2T (number 240 of 498)
98 S1W
09 Uly
09 1125R

Frank, let's see.....1125R
Lynn, I'm going to need to learn how to get the kickstand up. I'll be practicing in the garage. I may have to put it up first, then get on the bike and go. When I stop may have to then get off the bike first then put the kickstand up. Otherwise Dan will have to do it for me.LOL |
