I had the clutch leak first, when it was in the shop for that, they went ahead and installed the wire harness. I didn't know about it, until I picked the bike up. They had scratched the cover while bleeding the clutch, so I had to bring it back two weeks later so they could install the new cover. The stator went out, on the way to the shop, so they ordered a new stator, and regulator. I've got it back now, new stator, new VR, still have the wire harness in. The Erik Buell Racing race ECM works great, it gets rid of that stuttering you feel around 4000 RPM, and really wakes the bike up. |

Don't forget, we are getting close to the First Monday of November. Chase's Diner for meet and greet, and general Buellish discussions. Don't forget, I believe there is another gathering of Motorcycle Enthusiasts on Wednesday night at the Tilted Kilt. REX

Turn out at the Tilted Kilt was huge... 60+ and they raffled off some great stuff including a helmet, jacket, free susp service, a couple track days/ 2-up tides, some training classes, lots of t-shirts and calendars, etc. They are going to try to keep it going every few months and if the turn out stays high they will continue to get good prizes to give away. |

Very good. The birthday party lasted longer than I thought it would. By the time I got back home, it was too late. I drove by, but the place was emtpy. Maybe next time. REX |

How many bikes were there? The last one I went to in MN it was a race weekend, and it was kind of crowded on the track. If anyones interested I have a spare Nomar tire mount dismount bar. I am going to post in the classifieds later, but I thought I would give the local guys a shot at it first. Asking $60 (they are $110 plus freight for a new one.) |

After hearing that Rex has a Buell with dual perimeter front rotors, I did a little searching and found this bike. It is a Ghezzi & Brian 1100 Supertwin and I now want one. Here is a little more info: Ghezzi & Brian 1100 (Message edited by jonzin on November 21, 2010) |

Wow, great looking Guzzi. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving and rides safe. I will be in Northern Cal on the first Monday of December, but we still meet at Chase's the first Monday of the month. Keep ordering, and see you there in January. REX Would be fun to meet for Coffee someday over the holidays...Thanksgiving, Christmas, or New Years.... |

I got my X-mas list all picked out for this year!!! #1 - GPR steering stabilizer for the CR (already ordered this one) #2 - ASV shorty C5 levers #3 - Erik Buell Racing ECU for the FMF. Seems everything cool has a 3 letter acronym... Whats on your list?? |

Yes, would love to have the ECU for the CR. I want to see a bike with one installed and see how it runs first. From what I heard it is much better, without the jerking around in the lower revs. I rode my CR last night to Starbucks and down the interstate some. Really fun to ride on the road. Tons of power, I love that. I got my S2 back from Jim Higgins. This is the one that was built from parts I had been collecting off of bay. it is White on a white frame. PM wheels. Looks good, still needs some work done on it, to fine tune it. Still a little rough in certain areas, since it was built with a lot of different bike parts. Now to get it titled in Arizona. |

Mrs. and I made it down o.k. She did her track day sunday and no problems. Had a lot of fun. We are heading up the mountain east until it get's cold. Bart, you still in town? Left a message on the phone. Still up for a beer or whatever. Bought a tuber too. Gotta have a spare bike I guess. We'll be around until Sunday if anyone wants to ride somewhere. Larry |

Rex, The Erik Buell Racing race Ecm is great in my CR. It has a smooth, and very strong powerband all the way up to redline. It is Awesome! Larry, I will be in town Thursday thru Sunday. It would be great to meet up somewhere for lunch on Saturday. What tuber did you find? S1? S2? For Christmas? I just want to be with Debbie. |

Bill, good to see you getting out and about! Wycked, I think that's your Ducati you are hearing. Rode the S2 yesterday, felt good. Going up south Mtn. This morning. Meeting Larry and his family at the last circle K on Central at 11am. Be there, or be square... (Message edited by bartimus on November 27, 2010) |
