HOT-AS-Hell!!! The Buells or the weather? I played around the abandoned Publix parking lot near the house. Kinda made out a battle trax course. Loads of fun. The police came and I asked "what's up?". They said "nothing much, just watching" cool! I thought they were there to run me off. After about an hour or so I was tired and was about to leave when they got out of the car and motioned me to come over where they were. I though "here we go", they just wanted to know about the bike, and asked if I knew about the training course they had. It's the one over at Gwinett Fair Grounds. I asked if I could go over there and play, they said they wish they could have the public come out, but they couldn't. It's OK, the parking lot over here is way big, empty and clean, at least for now. They said they couldn't get over how far I could lean the bike over. I was trying to get my knee down. They also said they wished more kids would learn their bike in an empty parking lot rather than the street. Kids!? Ha, do I look that young?! I don't think that they were meaning I was a kid though. |

Mini, wish I could have been there yesterday but too many other engagements and so forth. Do you still want to get the T-Belt done on your civic? You said you work kind of close to my house, I can pick up your car if you need to. Call me and leave me a message at home (770)982-0013. I usually dont have time to talk while I am at work. Like I said, if I get it early tuesday I can have it done by lunch time. Let me know and I will hook u up. Charlie. |

Guess they were taking a break from the "100 days of Heat" Well I was on private property, and, the L'ville police are pretty cool. Now if I had been doing burn outs that may have been a different story. I been meaning to do the same thing myself. It's a lot of fun, plus you get to try out some of the things you've read or heard about. Good way to keep sharp without having to worry about traffic, and other urban hazards. I am making a mold of the chin faring today. I hope it turns out as good as the oil scoop did. Just let me know how hard I have to twist your arm when you get to the fly screen New leathers! Cool! What did you end up getting? Does this mean you're free to ride this weekend? I turned Shred, Gator, and Along4theride down to go to the mountains Sunday. I don't think I've ever done that before. I just had too much to do that I've been putting off.

I got some Joe Rocket Blaster Pants and some AlpineStar boots. My sister got me a Buell bike cover. I know I'm spoiled. I turned them down as well. Jager/redbull shots until 4:00 doesn't equal a Sunday morning ride. I am leaving Thursday afternoon for Florida...for work. I've been asked to speak at the Florida Society of Orthotists and Prosthetists meeting. I won't be back until Sunday afternoon. So....no riding for me until next week. The leathers will have to wait Thanks.. Shred and Gator for showing up Sat night. My wife said she really liked my "biker buddies". I can use that later when I want to ride. Good show guys. If all goes well, I will have the faring done by Thursday. Those rivits are a biotch to remove. I just replaced them with orthotic chicago screws. |

Torqer....my buddy is going to give me his bars of his 900 monster. I believe they will be a little more aggressive than stock. What do you think? Do you know the dimensions of the stock bars on the S? |

Sounds like I missed some Jager fun. And, probably some post consumption agony. I will get the stock dimensions today for you. You are spoiled! We'll let it go if you spoil us with your mastery of Carbon Fiber. |

As soon as I "Master" it, I will let you know. The chin faring will not be easy. The agony was not too bad. I have been worse but not by much.
