NOW YOU'RE ALL IN BIG, BIG TROUBLE!        Ya'll may make fun of the windshield, but it'll sure help on the 600-800 mile ride home! Picking it up (from Savannah GA) and riding it home (to Columbus OH) here in a couple weeks. Question! What's the spray paint that matches the frame, and how durable is it? I'm going to hang on to the Cyclone and fix the couple things that are really killing it's resale (gaskets and tail plastic). Then it'll go up for sale most likely in the spring. I'm happier than those damn kids in the wonka factory before they started effing everything up! Oh, and Thank you very much for the great deal and for working with me PackRat!  | ||

MO310.1AAYBP is the buell spray paint for the graphite grey frame color. it seems to work good and hold up well. on a different note, how the hell are we supposed to get more "3 generations of buells" leaned over in the corner pics with you on an xb?! you'll love it i bet. they are a completely different animal than the tubers. | ||

I'll be one of those poor people for awhile after I pick this thing up! That is a BIG A$$ windshield. Wanna buy it? It'll most likely be for sale after I get the bike home. (LOL selling parts before I even acquire the thing!) (Message edited by Mikef5000 on September 22, 2008) | ||

Very nice! You gonna ride it home? I'd get that fancy trailer out if I were you. | ||

No I won't make fun of the windshield. Tragedy should not be laughed at. | ||
| Mikef5000 |
Trailer??? BAH! Riding it home means riding through my favorite part of the counrty! Heck yeah I'm riding it home! The ride home will hit Wolf Pen Gap, Deals Gap, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. How could I trailer past all that? | ||

Congrats, Mike - I know you've been wanting for a while. | ||

Mike, after you paint with the frame pint get a can of clear coat, they make some just for wheels. It's supposed to be tough stuff. When are you picking it up? You know Buelltoberfest is Oct. 3rd, 4th, and 5th. | ||

Oh and Congrats on the bike! Once you've gotten over the shock and it's next Spring, you'll keep the Cyclone.  | ||

Once you've gotten over the shock and it's next Spring, you'll keep the Cyclone. I thought that with my last car. I had a race VW GTI, and I thought I'd keep it to race and drive my Audi. After a month with the Audi I sold the VW because I couldn't go back, it was just so much nicer and funner. I hope to be flying down there Sunday the 6th, riding to Greenville SC via Wolf Pen Gap. Then riding from Greenville to Columbus via the Blue ridge parkway on Monday. Don't know if the dragon will be a late Sunday or Early Monday side trip. I do know that is just after Buelltoberfest, but I don't think I can get Saturday off work. I'll give it a try though. | ||

You might want to hang on to the windshield for awhile. It may come in handy for those occaisional long rides. | ||
