Just wondering if any of the sponsors from the Bad Web will be in Sturgis showing off, and or selling their products. I always like to see things first hand, and being able to maybe hear some of the different mufflers would be great. So... Drummer, Special Ops, American Sport Bike, and the list goes on......anyone going to be there, if so where. |

Nope, not holding my breath....but Daytona and Sturgis are the 2 biggest rallys, and Sturgis is the only one I can make. I always enjoy seeing what the factory has new to offer, just taking a shot in the dark to see if any of the aftermarket will be there. |

I wouldn't think Sturgis would attract many Buellers, or potential ones. From my perspective it sounds hot, with probably too much bare flesh thats not too pleasant to look at, and ultimately boring as corner carving goes. It would not make my top 100 riding destinations, and if it did (the Black Hills are pretty cool) it would not be when the road is crowded. If I'm typical, and who knows, maybe I am off base, the aftermarket won't be there because the buyers won't be there en masse - Laguna seems more like Buells' style - (Message edited by Mr_cuell on July 10, 2006) |

I live in Sturgis and there are 1000s of miles of twisty roads in the Black Hills. The Temp is great! Sometimes it's hot but the temp around here varies quite a bit. I've seen the rally for many years and I've never seen any aftermarket places for Buells but I've seen a lot of Buell motorcycles here. |

Well if you want to hear a Special Ops pipe keep an eye out for a red 2004 XP12R while your out there. |

been there the last couple years and think i will be there again this year. there are some decent roads if you can find them, which i'm not the best at. but needle's is fun if you can get a good run at it. i seem to be good at always being the last guy in my group and hanging WAAAAYYY back until there is a huge line behind me and then just ripping the thing apart until i catch my friends. hey, ya have to have some fun... keep your eyes open for me you know you cant miss my bike! |

actually you can miss it Tim, that's the whole idea of drab olive green, blending in to the scenery. Even though your bike was probably the most photographed Buell at Homecoming 06. Bullet hole and all BTW how long 'til the chain conversion? |
