Joel, Sounds like you've shipped a few cables out - How much if I can pick one up from you rather than ship? I'm sure I'm no more than 10 mi. away. I've downloaded the software, just have no way to try it out yet, due to the lack of cable. What is the idle mod for? I've had no issues with idling problems, or maybe I just don't know what to look for... Thx, G |

G, I can have one ready this Friday and meet you with it. $40 is the low price. I have been charging $50 to others to cover shipping to them and using Paypal. It fixes a lot of the idle issues people don't realize Buells have especially with the TPS and charging system and walking off the kickstand too. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142838/323610.html?1198471531 (Message edited by jmhinkle on February 12, 2008) |

Hey folks- back from riding in Mexico- what a great country. We are sponsoring the track day in April. It has been moved from Saturday the 5th to Sunday the 6th by SMRI. I will be meeting with them next week to finalize everything. I'll keep you posted, but it will probably look just like the last one. |

Usually it is $70, if you buy early and 95 if you wait until you get to the track |

Hello folks. I'm new to this list and I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. I'm the Sales Manager at Thunderbird Harley Davidson. I ride a Buell XB12X and I enjoy it very much. I'm also a member of SMRI and AHRMA. I have raced a vintage Yamaha RD-350 and currently plan on doing track days with my KTM-450. We currently have several new 2006 XB12X's available for sale at $7500.00 plus tax, title and license fees. If anyone is interested let Thunderbirdbuellman know and he will be glad to help you out. Also, if you have any issues or questions, please feel free to stop in the store and talk with me. Thank you. |

Folks- The track day is indeed on the 6th, tickets will be the same as last year as far as I know and we will be running clockwise (race direction). I'm in Scotsdale on a family emergency, but John is meeting with Dave from SMRI today to finalize everything. Should have ticket available Monday. Folks who don't live in Santa Fe will be able to purchase over the phone and have the tickets mailed. I'll keep you posted- I expect to be back in Santa Fe on Monday. |

Thanks, Murrae. I sent info out to the email group. I think I'll buy by phone again. I'm out of town March 29th to April 5th in Scottsdale. I'll be back just in time to ride!! I'll work on the ride calendar this weekend and post here by end of day Sunday. |

I've been so busy lately with the training program, track days, my family, etc. I forgot to welcome the guys from Thunderbird. Welcome to the madness, guys. Let me know if I can ever help you out. For Maddoggie, we have a group that rides fire roads at least once a month- the Uly works great. Ping me with a phone number if you're interested and I'll put you on the call list. We have about 7 or 8 riders usually. |

Track Day update- We have the tickets in hand. The cashiers have been trained, but if you have any issues with ordering over the phone, ask for me, John DelValle or Mary Montoya. You will be able to order, pay and have the tickets mailed to you. As last year, if anyone buys tickets at the last minute, I can bring them with me instead of trusting the mail to deliver them on time. Also, SMRI raised the price of the tickets to $75.00. Murrae |

According to Murrae, the shop is going to sponsor two of them. The first one is definitely going to be on April 6. The second one is definitely on October 26, just not yet confirmed if SFHD is definitely sponsoring that one. I also added the dates of proposed joint rides with Colorado Thunder Club. If anyone has any questions about the routes that is not obvious from the descriptions, you could check our previous descriptions here: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/cgibin/discus/show .cgi?tpc=37&post=818005#POST818005 As usual, let me know if you have any questions. Cheers! CJR |

Just an FYI, for those interested in the track days, but thinks they can't afford them... If you work corners for 1/2 the day or all day, at the track days or the races. You earn SMRI track bucks, you can use those to pay for the track days. |

Hey folks- a reminder about the track days- we need to sell all the tickets to keep sponsoring the events. The dealership makes no money on either of these events and actually loses a few dollars since they supply drinks and food. The GM feels it's important for Buell and for our customers to have the opportunity to use the track. The other piece of info is that the second track day is in September and CJ has it on his list and we are planning on sponsoring it. You can order by phone anytime. |
