Yes, the poker run has been pushed back until October. This is a good time to be in Illinois. Jeff |

Hugh, Did you get my PM? I'd be interested to hear what Crusty said about the new & improved bearings. |

Jim- yea, I did. I'll PM him this morning and see if he knows anything. I'm considering taking my Uly up to near-DC week after next. I was thinking it might be good to get and pack a set of spare bearings. Addendum- I PM'ed Crusty. I also posted a parts inquiry in the sponsors section for the parts princess at Stone Mountain. Maybe she can find out if the P/N was recently updated. Lastly, Cityxslicker took delivery of one of the new police Ulys yesterdays; I posted and asked if he could check the rear wheel bearings on that. Seems like the first place new bearings will show up is on the 09 bikes. (Message edited by Hughlysses on September 05, 2008) |

I was thinking it might be good to get and pack a set of spare bearings. It sounds prudent, especially after reading Treadmark's Uly trip to Alaska. I think the guy running the tire repair service out in in the middle of nowhere, must be sprinkling nails on the trail. |

Matt- I think so, IIRC Kristy rented the cabin for the 2nd through the 5th. I sure hope we have clear weather this time. |

Does anyone want to trade a SCBR patch for a Hampton Roads Hooligans Patch? If so send me a PM. Jimmy |

Would be glad to but we need to get some patches made first. This may be a topic of discussion at Buelltoberfest if we can stop riding long enough to talk about stuff.... |

It looks like my Uly sold on E-Bay. I still hope to ride to Oktoberfest if I can find a replacement bike in time. |

I was already thinking about it riding home from march badness. What do you think your going to get Jim? Im going to pm ulywife and see who did the c3 patches, they came out nice, i have 2 sitting here. |

What do you think your going to get Jim? I haven't decided Matt. KTM still hasn't unveiled their new LC4 700 Adventure. Until then, I'm leaning towards either a black, highly farkled, low-mileage '07 F650GS thumper, or the '09 F650GS (800cc twin) if I can find one in red or silver without ABS. It might be a long wait on the twin. I wasn't too impressed with the V-Strom. It seemed just as big and heavy as the Uly. I keep having visons of me trying to pick-up a 500+ pound bike on some muddy, Alaskan road for the 50th time. The pic below is what happens when a 55-year-old leg tries to keep a 500+ pound motorcycle from tipping over.
