Performance HD in Syracuse is having a grand opening this weekend, featuring a Bubba Blackwell stunt show on Sunday. It's my birthday and I'm want to go and see somebody who's way squirrlier than me!!!! Any interest? I'll have to check their site and find out when. Squid - I knew why you were so close!! | |||

Brian, When I passed you and Carp taking pics last Sunday, I had a feeling you would be trying to catch up....so I wasn't real surprised to see you jamming by a few seconds after I parked my bike to take pics! Now about Sunday. Hmmm, the anti poser in a poser filled HD dealership! Should be amusing. Took the day off to chaperone a zoo trip with my son's kindergarden class this morning, and had a few hours to kill this afternoon. I had just sealed the deal on selling a helmet on the classified board and got the money today, so I tied the package on the back, dropped it at UPS, then ran down and did 13 from Chittenango to Cazenovia. Awesome little spin.

Just spoke to Presky, we're meeting at the Sav'on gas at the corner of 13 and 31 near Sylvan Beach at 9AM. Tentative plans to work in Osceola road, down 46, Ilion gorge(51) and back to Syracuse by around Noon for the Bubba Blackwell stunt show at Performance at Noon. Any takers, let me know. | |||

just got home from ride with Ricohet and we lived up to our name " Bad Weather Riders" the day started out pretty lousy but ended really good.Here's some of the stunt show pis and one of Ricochet trying to get a job with Bubba    | |||

Nice meeting some of the guys in person at the Bubba show. For those of you who missed it, it was a fun show! Bubba was very entertaining, spoke to the crowd while doing his stunts and was very good on his bike. My camera batteries went dead during the show but he did some stunts on a Harley Super glide that blew me away. Let me rephrase that, all his stunts were excellent to watch. Who knew that a Buell Blast could lay down so much tire smoke !  | |||

More from the show  | |||
| Uylrover |
More Bubba !  | |||
| Uylrover |
Yes! even more!  | |||

the weather man is calling for some great riding weather sunday. Anybody got plans for a ride.My bike is going in for it's 1000 mile check-up monday and I'm short about 175 miles and really want to change that.on a different note we are now listed on the Buell website.also was everyone twitchy with no "badweb" for the last day it was down? | |||
| Ricochet |
Hey Frank, Ya, I was wondering what happened to Badweb. I/We used to go months without checking here, now there is so much action on CNY that I missed it when it was down for a whole day. While I should be painting, I might be talked into a quick Sunday ride. | |||
| Ricochet |
I'm amused - as usual. When you login to Buell online owners, I'm in the picture on the right under "submit an event" That's from homecoming 06. The poser strikes again!  | |||

Where are we riding to Sunday? Took mine in for a tip sensor relocation Monday and had 'em put on a new set of Perreli tires as the Dunlops I rode on last week were past the wear bars. Not a good thing. Now I need to find out how they handle compared to the Dunlops. Frank, Joe at the parts counter said you were in trying to buy several cable repair kits and that they don't carry any. I guess we have to get things like that from a Yamaha dealer? | |||
| Fpresky |
I'll ride anywhere the collective wants.Just tell me when and where.I'm going to check the hardware store for the cable repair kits and might even get a spare cable to have. | |||
| Trapper |
I heard there is a Yamaha shop in Speculator that carries them for about $5. | |||
| Carpedium81 |
Yamaha dealer it is! My new cable is finally in, but i went and traded the old bike in for a jet-ski. Talk about money pit... oh well. But The new pilot powers are AMAZING, they stick really well and handle like a dream. I will be down in PA this weekend, so unfortunately i wont be around to join ya. Have fun guys! | |||
| Fpresky |
Carp,What are you riding now ? | |||
| Carpedium81 |
i still have the buell, my old bike was an old honda cb650 i had laying around. no worries lol | |||
| Fpresky |
Just picked up my saddle bags for homecoming , you were dead on Ricochet I'll be packing lite. There not real big but i guess a lot better than a backpack for 1000 miles. | |||
| Carpedium81 |
Unfortunately its hard to find storage for the cyclone anymore... i have a tank bag for it, plus the backpack. I'll be looking at getting a rear bag... but saddle bags are impossible to find. good thing my suitcase has wheels! | |||

anybody up for a short ride sunday? the weather is looking good. | |||
| Trapper |
What time/where can we meet Sunday morning, we can decide on a destination from there. What time does Utica HD open? They are a 7 day a week operation. We could stop by there for a cup of coffee and take off for a putt from there. They have stocked some Buell Puck gloves if anyone needs any. May be if they sell some Buell items they will start stocking more. | |||
| Fpresky |
meeting at Utica HD sounds good to me , I have to order a front brake lever, and a foot peg.Had a cager cut me off and ended up doing one hell of a stoppie then ended putting it down pretty easy. cracked brake lever and broke feeler off peg.Not a single scratch anywhere else. Best part was person who caused accident sped away. | |||
| Trapper |
glad to read you did not get hurt and nothing serious with your bike. What time on Sunday morning? Hope some other Buell riders can squeeze it in to their schedules as well. I probably won't be back on line until Saturday evening, so I will check things then. Ride safe. | |||
| Fpresky |
I think they open at 10 or 11 a.m.,and we could meet then. I'll check and post later or just call my cell I'll be at work from 8a.m. till midnight Saturday (Message edited by fpresky on May 05, 2007) | |||

Frank, Good talkin with you, thanks for calling me back in such a timely manner, while at work. As agreed upon, I will plan to be at HD of Utica at about noon and we can take a ride from there. Thought I'd post here, just in case some other riders may get a chance to stop by and join up for an afternoon ride. |
