Meeting usually lasts about an hour. Not sure who will lead a ride. I have to head back home and get ready for megadeth/slayer. |

Bfast meeting ride for me also - hopefully get time to service the Uly this week. Tried to think of something non-geeky so Paul would feel comfortable posting, guess we all can not be as cool/creative/warped as him. |

I have been wanting to do at least a meet and greet with some PBRs. It is difficult when there are many things to do and 8-9am comes early for a rider from Aberdeen Wa., but I hope to get my chance this Saturday. |

I'll be there. I'm going to run to EDR after and buy a couple #45 stickers too. |

Good to see everyone - thanks for coming down Ron! Next time we will get in a more impressive ride, hope the rest of yours was good. Adam had some issues with header bolts and the muffler strap, did another coat hanger repair and got as much of a nut as possible on the one remaining sheared bolt. Hopefully that got him home from Ridgefield.
I guess I not having a torque wrench was not the issue!

Thanks for the visit and ride guys. After you and Adam split for repairs David and I wandered around back and forth across 503 for another 50 miles. Nice roads and scenery. We gassed and parted company at Woodland and I managed to back road it from there to Kelso. I would have done another 80 miles of back roads to Elma if my drive belt hadn't gone missing. Between pushing and coasting I managed to end up at a Texaco station at Cowlitz Way and Pacific. It was real easy for my darling and wonderful and patient [she's watching] wife to find me there. The XB is yet again showing it's HD roots by riding in the back of my pick up.
Destination is picking it up on Thursday to do the warranty replacement on the fuel pump. They ordered a belt, but if I can find one first I will install it,and put off the warranty work so as not to interfere with the 9/16 trip we have planned. |

Sorry to hear that Ron - was not a good Buell Karma day evidently. Glad you made it home safe - good luck with the repairs. |

Latus had a belt and my XB is now functional. I will cancel this week's warranty work. I can keep the belt Destination has on order as a spare. |
