hey. thanks xbullet. if i get my bike out of earl smalls in time i will definitely ride with you guys. my front right slider fork seal busted. i dont know how it would break from hard braking. they said the part was on back order til the 3rd of august but my friend tim, in parts, checked on it and its in stock. i dont know what the deal was. im going to call them tomorrow to see the progress on it. i miss my bike. i havent seen it for three weeks now. it feels like a huge part of me is missing. |

I let Blaine ride the XB, he kept it in 3rd gear most of the time since it still has the shifting problem going from 2nd to 3rd. Not as bad as it was, but still not smooth like it should be. I never even got on it except to ride it to the restrooms. LOL...I use to love riding my XB but I'm just tired of it breaking down and leaving me stranded on the side of the road. After 4 times I figured it might be best to test it out at the track so if it broke down it wouldn't be far from the trailer. Its sad but true...but thats how I feel. I remember when.....the old XB9R would take me anywhere and not break down. 29,880 or something like that. Just oil & filter and lots of tires. Off to a better subject their was a guy running 59's.... yes! 59 seconds... I think the track record is in the high 56 second range. Thats just sick.... Hang in their Charlie and Sam, keep in touch!

Charlie the finish on the frame looks like shit. JC is so dissapointed and it is sad because he loves his Uly. He tried to get Harley just to pay me to refinish the frame and they said no. Told him he should have used a Harley cleaner on it ,what bullshit. |

Yeah, that's total crap. It's not like he just dumped dish soap on it or something. He used an automotive cleaning product. |

Well for those of you who remember who I am since I haven’t been around for awhile. The bike is still down. Working on 4 weeks ago I was forced to drop off the xb for warranty work. They had to tear down the engine to replace a fly wheel and a few other things. 16000 miles in a little over a year and the bike does this (I love buell). Great not to mention on top of this a bent rim and rotor because of an unforeseen pot hole on an on ramp fun. Well I have to give big thanks to Cameron for hooking me up with a loner bike for almost the first 2 weeks. But as luck would have it the first bike the fire bolt they gave me decided to stop running for me and left me stranded in the middle of Marietta ghetto the toe truck guy was cool though. But the guys from smhd brought me a heritage soft tail the next day to rock for a week that I promptly gave back upon request. Floorboards ground to nubs of course most of which I did getting used to riding that monster (sorry Cameron). So now I am still bike less and rocking a rental car. Yep jeep liberty and yep I feel like a soccer mom on an urban assault mission. But hopefully in another week I should have the bike back just waiting on a new rim to come in. I know what your saying well why didn’t I order one 3 weeks ago well didn’t know that the old one couldn’t hold air but then again I guess I had enough air for the bike and I both when I had it. From the bike less soccer rambo (yea I've watched kicking an screeming with Will farell) Morgan |

Glitch he called customer service and they will not do anything. His Uly looks like it's 10 years old. He used the same car wash that we use at work. |

Well if that's the case then, the next step would be for him to contact Court Canfield. He's the man when it comes to Buell Service dropping the ball. Send him a PM, and ask if there's anything he can do about the situation Court is top notch, and has done a whole bunch for Buellers, when it looked as though nothing could or would be done. Best of luck! |

I am back! I survived 5 classes over the summer semester, finishing up with 4 finals today. My brain hurts, but I think I maintained my 4.0 GPA. Gonna be strange not studying all day every day. I have three weeks to play. Clint and I are trailering the bikes up to TWO Friday morning if anyone wants to join us. Hopefully we will keep the rubber side down this time. Congrats to all the fathers! You are braver than I. |
