Author Message   Walrus2004 Posted on Thursday, August 21, 2008 - 03:19 pm:        I'm located in Peoria (central illinois), anyone around my neck of the woods?   Torqd Posted on Thursday, August 28, 2008 - 03:25 pm:        My friend Allen and I have s1's we live in Peoria and Washington.. we are going to Cordova dragstrip tomorrow night... about an hour and a half away maybe we can meet up sometime... Later   Xbniner Posted on Wednesday, September 10, 2008 - 06:58 pm:        I live in West Peoria, just got my XB9R a month ago. I saw a red and white tuber on sunday driving down University. Only other Buell I know about is a red/amber xbr at the corner of Farmington and Sterling, but I've never talked to the guy.   Xbniner Posted on Thursday, September 11, 2008 - 07:35 pm:        Update: I saw a black/amber 12R today on University today, but it sounded really strange. That's at least 4 buells i've seen in the area.   Torqd Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 - 11:30 am:        Allen lives around Sterling and Forrest Hill Across from Kroger... our Buells are usually around there. If you see them stop by and say hello. Mine is the Carbon S1 and his is a silver s1. Later P.S Your name sounds familiar... where did you go to school. Later   Xbniner Posted on Wednesday, September 17, 2008 - 01:08 pm:        I go by there all the time, If I see you guys some time I'll stop by. I went to high school in Flanagan then moved here and went to ICC and Bradley.   Torqd Posted on Wednesday, September 17, 2008 - 02:27 pm:        Funny... I just saw a 98 S1 White Lightning going down 24 by ICC yesterday... bone stock... looked nice... I have known many Buellers here in Peoria but over the last few years I have lost tough... Chat at you later   Purplegirl Posted on Monday, February 23, 2009 - 09:05 am:        Does anyone live any closer to Jacksonville than all y'all in Peoria? And, do you ever come to the website and post? I am moving back to IL after living in SC and loving it. But, family in IL needs me. I ride a Buell Blast and would like to ride with other Buells. Also, where would the closest dealer to J'ville be? Thanks!   Cyclonedon Posted on Saturday, March 14, 2009 - 01:09 am:        Purplegirl< not many dealers close to Jacksonville. Here is a list I pulled off of Buell's website.

Guess I will shop for a dealer after I get there. None are very close compared to here. And, the buell riders post alot more in this area than in IL. In that way, I will fit right in - I'd rather be riding than posting!   Claude Posted on Tuesday, March 24, 2009 - 08:23 pm:        Southern Illinois Buell rider here (Marion/Carbondale area).   04buell Posted on Thursday, March 26, 2009 - 09:20 pm:        Effingham area here. Check out www.moonshine-run.com. It's coming up and always draws a crowd. See you there! jerry   Jlnance Posted on Sunday, March 29, 2009 - 04:19 am:        Thanks Jerry, I sent that link to a friend in Peoria, and she was already planning on being there. Hope you all have a great time.   Tdman77 Posted on Sunday, May 31, 2009 - 07:56 pm:        Anyone from down south heading to homecoming? A bunch of us are meeting in Aurora and riding up on Fri the 5th.   Jlnance Posted on Monday, June 01, 2009 - 07:51 am:        I have a friend in Peoria I'm trying to convince to go. What time are you all meeting in Aurora?   Tdman77 Posted on Wednesday, June 03, 2009 - 01:45 am:        For anyone that needs it, the address to the Sunrise Rest. is: 9S593 State Route 47 Sugar Grove, IL 60554 (630) 466-1272 See you guys at 8am or so -------------------------------------------------- ----------------- We will be meeting and rolling out at 9am(ish)   Ole_yellar Posted on Monday, July 13, 2009 - 12:01 pm:        It seems it is hard to meet up with Buell riders. I usually have to ride with Harleys or go by myself. I live in Rockford.   Purplegirl Posted on Monday, July 13, 2009 - 08:25 pm:        Yes, Buell riders here are scarce! I live in Jacksonville now. Today I met Jesse who has a beautiful yellow firebolt. He says there are a few fun turns besides the one that is the Home Depot driveway. Jesse - post something!   04buell Posted on Saturday, August 22, 2009 - 08:15 am:        anyone going to the Moto-Gp?   Xbniner Posted on Thursday, August 27, 2009 - 12:47 pm:        Unfortunately not, all the guys I ride with are going out there, but I have to work. I've seen a few more buells around Peoria recently. 2 lightnings, a firebolt and a XT. Anybody from here?   Xbniner Posted on Monday, October 19, 2009 - 12:58 pm:        Hey I've talked to Walters Brothers and as of now they plan on being a Buell service and parts center for the full 7 years. Which is surprising to me because they barely qualify for that in my mind right now.. Anybody know what other HD stores will still support buells?   Mideon Posted on Monday, October 19, 2009 - 01:12 pm:        My guys plan on going the distance and have no problem installing customer provided parts either. Buzzie is an awesome tech and will work on things till the problem is completely resolved. They are in it for the long haul Gateway Buell 3600 Lemay Ferry Road St. Louis, MO, USA 63125 (314) 845-9900 (314) 256-2735 (fax) Visit Our Web site http://www.gatewayhd.com   Triumph_bonnie Posted on Sunday, October 25, 2009 - 11:45 pm:        Hey is there anyone in NW Illinois near the Quad City area?   Iman501 Posted on Monday, December 14, 2009 - 03:55 pm:        wow didnt even realize this part of badweb existed! i should get on other parts other than just quick board ha ha, but i live in peoria illinois as well! we should all set up a ride this next spring or summer sometime!!!   04buell Posted on Monday, December 14, 2009 - 06:21 pm:        that ride could be to Homecoming. Not that far from you all!   Triumph_bonnie Posted on Monday, December 14, 2009 - 08:20 pm:        Is there going to be a Homecoming again this year? Now that Willie and company has pulled the plug and closed the doors at the East Troy facility. Maybe it will be at Erik Buell Racings Facility where ever it is being set up at? Anyone know?   Iman501 Posted on Monday, December 14, 2009 - 09:55 pm:        i know there are some threads about homecoming in the quick board section, i agree that a ride to homecoming would be a fun one! convincing my parents would be the trick...i'm only 18, but it may be worth a try!   Triumph_bonnie Posted on Tuesday, December 15, 2009 - 11:06 pm:        Well hey Iman501, I can always put my rear pegs back on and let your mother ride up with me to keep an eye on her boy, LOL. I have made sure that I have the time off to attend and really hope that we can secure a track day to play.   Iman501 Posted on Monday, December 28, 2009 - 08:10 pm:        so who's going to homecoming this year?, i am! lets get a group together!   04buell Posted on Thursday, December 31, 2009 - 06:05 pm:        we're going! SUMMER CAN'T GET HERE SOON ENOUGH!!!!!!!!
