Thanks NN.........Steve did a good job getting us set-up! Good meeting tonight guys. It was interesting listing to Tom Bradford, Dan Bilanski and the others explain what some of the restricting factors are for the XB/ fuel injected Buells. Thanks to Hal's for providing some the food as well and too the guys from Hal's PA for staying late to chat with us!!! | ||

Very good meeting. Interesting whats in the pipeline & the potential pipeline. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Thanks NN for the compliment  Yes, the meeting was way cool. It does make me glad I've got a carbed tuber Now that the weather has gotten a tad chilly, it's time to tear down the S3 and do some "upgrades". I wont be embarrased by my nephew beating me on a drag race anymore The track days they are talking about, would be REALLY fun. Me, never being to a tack day, am still nervous about it though... Definately time to machine up some frame/swingarm sliders. Any others that have tubers need some? Gimme a count, I can accomodatcha Does Delrin work well for the bobbins? | ||

Steve.....I'll take 2 sets!!! If you're working up something for a Blast, then it would be 3 sets. | ||
| Kinger |
Steve...I would like a set as well. If you need help let me know. | ||
| Kinger |
CJ...........You forgot your sling bags!!!!! | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Kinger, at least she remember paper *AND* a pen this time | ||
| Uwgriz |
Steve, are you able to accomodate a foreigner in on the frame slider deal? | ||
| CJXB |
Kinger, you forgot to give the sling bags to me !!  Was a good meeting, lots of folks there, will report more later !! Gotta go find that paper I wrote on !! LOL CJ | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Uwgriz, I don't see why not... The frames and swingarms on the '99 and newer are a different. I may need to take some measurements off the swingarms, and a good photo of the frames at least. The boxed steel swingarm slider will obviously be easier to make | ||

Steve, If you want to play around with ideas for S2 protectors let me know. | ||

Steve -- I've spun a couple of sets up, and delrin will work fine. (Message edited by bomber on November 12, 2004) | ||

We're game for the motorcycle show... And ya gonna be able to remember to go Dyna, or do I have to send you a reminder | ||
| CJXB |
Better send a reminder !! | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Lake, I've looked at the Blast today, and just can't find a GOOD spot to attach a frame slider, without welding/drilling the frame. Even the S3, with a stock airbox will be a bit of a challenge to mount one. | ||
| Lake_bueller |
Have Bomber shoot you a picture of his bike. He has sliders. I'm don't remember where they mount. | ||
| Buells Rule! (Dyna in disguise) |
LSL sliders, they bolt right to the frame on the Tubers. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Well, we're adding two more Buells to the "fleet" Picking up Wes's track bikes on Saturday http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/21/84246.html?1100707541 6 Buells in a 6 month period. Ya think it's an addiction yet? | ||
| CJXB |
OMG, you got Wes' bikes !!! Wow !! CJ | ||
| Kinger |
All this so you don't have to make up some sliders for your bike?????? Congrats Steve.....those should be a lot of fun. What is the plan for them? | ||
| Uwgriz |
I just missed meeting you last night, I was at Wes's place just before you picking up a few things for Hellion's M2. Enjoy the bikes, I know he was particularly fond of the S1. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
CJ, yeah, WOW! And I must say, Wes is a *REALLY* nice and honest dude to deal with. My brother sold his HD Superglide(AKA "the John Deer"  , to afford them. Kinger. My brother is gonna go a racin' I'll use one of them or the XB9R for several track days this spring/summer. The Silver bike needs some work. The motor is done blown up. No biggie, Wes is including all the parts to put it back together. It should be running by the folowing weekend. The black bike is *REALLY* ready for racing. Dual front discs, Penske shock, etc... So, I'm contemplating going to a "track school" this winter. I've got a lot of gear to buy this winter. A better helmet, leathers, etc... Good thing I've got the "unlimited" overtime thing going for the foreseeable future | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Kinger, oh yeah, I *WILL* still be making some frame sliders for the "tubers", since it didn't notice any on the racers. | ||
| Steve_mackay |
Uwgriz, yeah, I could tell. He was happy they were going to go to a "good home" that wasn't going to gut them, and part 'em out on ebay. The S1 is a SWEET looking bike, being all silver, with the 100th logos on 'em. |
