My buell is honest. Today sunny and 70 temp. The old girl with 40 000+ miles on her. had not been started in 3 mo. she started first time I rolled her over, let her warm up for a few min. rolled on to Hiway twisted on the gas she pulled up 100+ MPH not one single cough. then settled down and ran just like new. I love this bike.

I ran mine yesterday for the first time in over a month. I had forgotten how much fun it is.

Ran like the day I brought it home(and added the race kit, and 07 airbox)!

Man you guys make me jealous. It's 7 degrees right now with the windchill -14. I went out and bought a stand and some LED stop lights today. Thats as close as I'm going get to a ride for at least a couple of months. I'm getting cabin fever!

I have been playing on my new to me KX60, way to fast for a kids bike for sure!

Last time I rode the Uly was at the Track last weekend, 65deg. and we were flying!!

I did not bring any spare plugs and starting her in the morning she was 35deg so I fouled the front(again(it was previously fouled from trying to ride too soon)) and just after lunch she was giving me fits. New plugs fixed her right up but I still dont have legal tags!

havent fired up any of the bikes in well over a month. havent ridden in even longer than that.

wait i take it back, took the gf's blast around the block to make sure it still fired up and ran fine before its new owner came and took it home.

but i am sure i could go turn the key on anyone of the bikes and ride it across the state!

it is 1 degree with 25-30 mile an hour winds here and the roads are 75%+ ice covered. the wind is blowing so hard on the slick roads i was literally getting blown clean into the other lane with my blazer in 4x4 last night. it was way to much fun!

Haven't fired a Buell up since October(Boo!)......but replaced the isolators on the X1,cleaned the XB12R and X1 to neart showroom condition and next is the belt upgrade on the XB9R. Running fine with time to have "everybody" up to snuff for the Spring break out..........

We ended up riding down through Pala, to Anza Borrego and Borrego Springs, beyond that I lost track of where we were. Mile after mile of tight technical switchbacks and long rolling sweepers. Beautiful day for a ride indeed, I didn't get home until almost 5pm.

It was a chilly 48 riding to work in Orlando this morning. Should be in the 70's when the sun comes up.

It's about time we got some seasonal weather here. It's been in the mid-80's for the last week!
