Beautiful Tim, much better than I could do with the magic marker. Now we can print/e-mail this and hopefully get the dealer to display. Thanks to all that made the ride Sunday, what a way to remember the last 07 Lowman ride! Sam your pipe will be ready by friday. |

Hi All, Bill has been emailing this link to me so I guess I had better respond! Great idea getting this group going. However, I work almost every Saturday so I don't know how many group rides I will be able to go on. I am normally off Sun-Tues. Hope to meet some of the local Buellers soon. Was out on the bike today.... coooollldd. Not much left this season. Neil |

Great to see your post on this board Neil, Most of our rides have been on Sundays and weather will be a big factor now. I know we have some hard core riders that will ride through winter. Looking forward to posts with upgrades & mods to there bikes. Maybe even some more rides? |

Neil, welcome to the madness. Anytime my wife isn't at work, I'm ready to ride. I'd be down for a ride this weekend, maybe the route you suggested, Bill. Sam, thanks. That is really cool, I'll print some out to spread the word. |

had a very good experience today at High Desert, went to get my lightning pegs that i had ordered in. which Tom, the guy that helped me, is very buell excited, hopes to have one next year. If you have dealt with them before, even when they were nuts and bolts, they were not keen on hog or brag discounts. which is unfortunate, since it turns us away from our local dealer to badweb dealers that give a discount. Had the chance to speak with the parts manager, Jeff i worked him on having a boise area bueller discount. He is up for it. He will get with dave in the next day or two and call me back to make sure... i will keep ya posted... needless to say i bought a race ecm at a discounted price just refreshing especially after never getting any discount from parts for the v rod (Message edited by axil5 on November 02, 2006) |

Noon Sunday works for me as long as it's not snowing! Where do you want to meet? Great job Sam, Looks like the dealership is going to support us. I finished your pipe last night Sam, I also have the X9 pipe for Larry if you're reading this. |

Well the weather finally got in the way of a ride. I guess we were spoiled by so many rides in such good weather! With all the rain I fabbed up some mirror brackets & mounted them on the hand gaurds. This is only the third mirror change! Maybe we can get a ride in next weekend, I know Neil from the HD dealer wants to go. |

I guess we should have gone out on Saturday, it was gorgeous, oh well. Looks like some of the areas we wanted to adopt just opened up. There are 10 to 15 different sections between Idaho City and Lowman available. I can get things set up if y'all want to go for it. If it is a go, I'll need everyone to sign the Volunteer release of Liability waiver. Whomever is up for it, please reply. |

Welcome Chad, I am glad to see we keep growing! Checked my fuel mileage after changing intake to the LH side. Went up 4.5 MPG. Possibly cooler temps helped as well. I have the roll of heat tape in my shop (Thanks Tim) if anyone needs some just let me know. |

Hi Guys, Thanks for the feedback. Mike: Yeah, I was going to go buy a hole saw.but I'd never use it again. I was thinking 1" or 1 1/4 " holes based on what I've read. Can I hook up with you sometime before this weekend and borrow one? I'd really appreciate it. CELL: 440-2007 Bill: I will tape up my right side holes as well.any ideas on a good tape? Just a thought.the holes in the pictures look pretty raw.I am going to sand/file out the holes to make them "smoother". I would guess this would create less turbulence and smoother air flow through the holes? -Tim |

Yeah, I'll work on it. I've designed some stuff for BVR and work with PhotoShop every day.I can probably figure it out. ;^) Tim |

Hey Mike. Can you call me when you get a chance (440-2007) so I can arrange to drill or borrow a hole saw before this weekend is up? Thanks man. |

Hey guys, another suggestion might be a dremel tool with a side cutting bit, draw the lines and cut, its verrry smooth cutting that way. good luck, I hope to do mine this weekend. thanks for all the good advice Bob. |
