Just harassing you a little.

I picked up my new 1125 R Monday afternoon near Pittsburgh. I rode home Monday and Tuesday. It stormed and rained nearly the entire trip. The bike ran perfectly. The power and handling was great. I can't wait to get the controls and suspension dialed in.

It should be a fun bike to play with.

Visit to HD-IL on Sunday may be my plans in lieu of Slimy Crud if the rain forecast persists.......

If rain looks bad up north for the Slim, perhaps we could go south of Indy and ride some of the nice roads there. There currently is a 20% chance of rain in the area.

Relative to Indianapolis, where are how far are the entertaining roads. North, south, east, west? what is your estimated time to reach them from your house?

Fellow WCC'rs,

May meeting and I can finally make it! So, where have we decided to hold this month's agreed upon postponed meeting? 7PM where?
As soon as the officers inform me I will put a mass email for all the members. Perhaps a membership drive meeting?

All the best,
Keith K

No club related post. I completed the sign up for the Full Track Day, Memorial Day weekend @ Autobahn. I know Curt was in, Marc and Paul. Whom else? Should be a great time! If anyone needs items hauled to the track I would be happy to toss them in the trailer.

Ride well,

Fellow WCC'rs,



Be there or be square. Thursday, May 10th, at the new location of IL H-D on Joliet Rd, just east of La Grange Rd in beautiful Countryside. A Slimey Crud run report, perhaps, Speedy's first race weekend highlights, Dealer corner, ride plans, Memorial Day Track outing at Autobahn and an EBR "personality" maybe on site as well.



Hope to see one and all at the new digs,



Ride well,



Keith K

Just purchased a Barker Exhaust and a EBR ECM for the 1125R. It should be in by the weekend so it can be installed in time for the upcoming track day.

Wonderin' who is riding the zero bikes tomorrow; and when you'll be there--thinking of caging (can't ride for awhile) over there, and then on to Blackhawk for some racing (even if Speedy doesn't tomorrow; I can't go on Sunday, as well!) Steve

I'm sure you will have a good time. I, unfortunately am forced to work and additional day today to accommodate the NATO related events in town. I haven't worked an extra day in years so the timing is just bad. Please report back on the electric bikes.

Also, very much looking forward to "homecoming" weekend. Anybody have plans?
Marc Hickman and I may go on Friday afternoon or early Saturday.

so i did get up to test ride a ZERO S motorcycle. it's very cool. very quiet. not very quick but got up to 80mph pretty smoothly. definitely interesting!


specs here: http://www.zeromotorcycles.com/zero-s/specs.php

also, test rode a Victory Vision. a behemoth of a bike. would be great to take on a a long tour, other than that... i'll stick with my Buell!
