Author Message   Lazyj Posted on Wednesday, July 23, 2008 - 12:37 pm:        Bill/Mike....... Have you not seen whats going on so far with the 1125 "platform" ? http://www.buell.com/en_us/bikes/street/1125CR/gal lery.asp   Cms1172 Posted on Wednesday, July 23, 2008 - 01:09 pm:        Ok now i am sold, when do they come in?   Coturi Posted on Wednesday, July 23, 2008 - 06:54 pm:        J, sure have. I like it much more than the R, still a little weird. However, I'm sure I could do some massaging to improve it a bit. I still think that keeping the XB and adding a supermoto would be a better option for me right now.   C4bird Posted on Wednesday, July 23, 2008 - 08:52 pm:        Thanks Chad Good to hear you got the bike back, great weather lately, good time to get out and enjoy it. Mine's been in the shop a week now, hopefully get it back this week/weekend some time. That CR reminds me a lot of the B-King...   Coturi Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 10:11 am:        Sam and I are going to ride on Sunday morning. Exact time and destination is dependent on others schedules and preferences if they would like to join. We were thinking of Bogus or Lowman, around 8 or 9am. Let me know if you would like to come along and when and where you want to go.   Lazyj Posted on Wednesday, July 30, 2008 - 01:08 pm:        I may go with you guys. I'd like to hit lowman since i havent in a while. Keep me posted   C4bird Posted on Thursday, July 31, 2008 - 12:05 am:        If I didn't have a bunch of hot rod parts for my truck show up today I'd be there Sunday, but alas, hot rod parts are winning the battle...   Coturi Posted on Thursday, July 31, 2008 - 10:45 am:        Alright, if its just us let's meet at my house at 8:30am on Sunday and head up to Lowman and back. If anyone else (Bill, Chad, etc.) wants to come, let me know.   Bhemph0 Posted on Thursday, July 31, 2008 - 11:28 am:        Would love to guys, but I will be in McCall until Aug. 10th. After that I would like to get in some turns!   Lazyj Posted on Thursday, July 31, 2008 - 04:15 pm:        sounds good mike. I will plan on making it.   Lazyj Posted on Monday, August 04, 2008 - 10:18 am:        Sorry I didnt make it guys, hope you had a blast. Uncle passed away so I had to deal with family....funeral tomorrow...oh boy!   Coturi Posted on Monday, August 04, 2008 - 11:52 am:        No worries J, we still had fun without you. Next time though.   Cxpistl Posted on Monday, August 04, 2008 - 12:42 pm:        Hey guys, how is everyone? I have been on the river most the summer and missing out on the rides. I finally spent some time on the bike this weekend to get it road worthy. Now I just need to get this new tire on the back and I'm ready to rock. Of course HD is out three to four weeks for appointments so I'm kind of stuck. Mike, what kind of bribes do you accept for a tire mount? That is if you are still keeping shop hours I can bring beers or money or pizza or trade a favor if you would like. I've got a VDSTS and would be happy to share if you are in need of a tune or TPS reset.   Coturi Posted on Monday, August 04, 2008 - 06:32 pm:        Tony, no bribes needed. Just give me a call, two30 five38seven.   Cxpistl Posted on Tuesday, August 05, 2008 - 05:24 pm:        Nice! Thanks Mike!!   Coturi Posted on Tuesday, August 05, 2008 - 07:10 pm:        You got it Tony. See you Saturday.   C4bird Posted on Saturday, August 09, 2008 - 10:30 pm:        You guys ever rebuilt a bike with a salvage title? Anything to worry about, issues? Does the title stay as a salvage? May have a good deal on a kawi that is titled salvage, never dealt with salvage aspect of vehicles before.   Coturi Posted on Sunday, August 10, 2008 - 10:52 am:        Nate, from what I understand, a salvage bike will always have a salvage title. Registering one for street use varies from state to state, so I'd call the DMV to make sure. It sounds like fun to me, if you had the right donor bike to start from.   C4bird Posted on Sunday, August 10, 2008 - 10:00 pm:        Hmm, guess I should probably call and get the scoop first. Hate to buy something that I can only resell or part out. So I saw Dave the owner of HDHD on the road today, he was riding a Harley. Though that it was cool to see him, I waved, he just blazed on past, no wave, no nod, wasn't shifting, so that wasn't it. Makes ya feel real good about buying two bikes from him...   Cms1172 Posted on Monday, August 11, 2008 - 11:03 am:        You might check, from what I understand, the salvage title does not exist in canyon county, so you might try that approach. Dealers out there buy salvage then title as used when they are purchased, good luck.   C4bird Posted on Monday, August 11, 2008 - 06:36 pm:        I talked to the people at the DMV and they said it's no big deal, just ends up being a reconstruct when you are done. Just need to have it inspected to get it titled, then inspect it again after it gets rebuilt. Has to be inspected at the place on State St., so that is kinda a hassle, but not too bad. Costs a little $$ each time to get it inspected too, but not bad. Now I just need to decide how bad I want it...

Waited to long. Oh well, in my searches I found out how to buy insurance auction bikes. Lots more options now.   Cxpistl Posted on Tuesday, August 12, 2008 - 11:25 am:        Hey Nate, sounds fun, you might have to share the info. I would like to find a project bike if the price was right. Something with a V-twin would be sweet. Mike thanks again for the help on the tire mount! It's always a relief getting a new skin on the back. I'll let you know how this thing wears, so far so good...   Coturi Posted on Tuesday, August 12, 2008 - 06:08 pm:        Tony, not a problem. Glad I could help out a little bit.   C4bird Posted on Sunday, August 17, 2008 - 11:51 am:        I'll keep ya posted Tony. Not sure how it's all going to go just yet.   Cms1172 Posted on Sunday, August 17, 2008 - 05:09 pm:        Hey Nate, could you share the secret for getting the salvage bikes, also did anyone have plans for a ride to get the group together, been a while since we have ridden, and my bike is finally running right.   Coturi Posted on Sunday, August 17, 2008 - 06:37 pm:        I'd be down for a ride next Sunday. That work for anyone?   C4bird Posted on Sunday, August 17, 2008 - 07:29 pm:        Bummer, I have to work next Sunday.. As far as the secret, Coparts in Nampa is where I have been looking. There are a couple web sites out there that let you bid on bikes. Haven't gone through the process so don't have all the details yet, but I'll give you guys the scoop when I do. If you want to beat me to it, as long as you let us all know how it goes, salvagebikesauction.com is who I will probably try to go through.   Cms1172 Posted on Monday, August 18, 2008 - 12:13 am:        would have to be an afternoon ride not before about 2, at least for me, would want to get back behind the mountains where its bit cooler.
