Yeah well stupid buellgrrrl if you bothered to notice the time instead of running your ignorant mouth you would have notice it is EVENING and also bothered to read the post I HAVE been riding the last few days not sitting by computer trying to start psychotic, ignorant arguments with people on the web. GET A LIFE and go ride or drive your dogless mack truck or forever trouble free bmw or whatever gods gift to the world vehicles you alledgedley own. Or better yet take the numerous peoples advice and go see a GOOD head doctor, not the UPS or postal kind |

Buell called it a gray, but it seems to have some purple in it too. It looks different depending on the light. |

Well as I was out riding I noticed a fly had been splattered all over my appropriately names flyscreen. Well, when I bought the bike I saw that bike had a flyscreen, but I didn't think they actually meant flies were going to hit my fly screen! I want a new bike! |

My Buell isn't busted, my body is, or at least it's not working properly. |

I installed 32 new sprinklers today. And I rolled up the hose, hopefully I won't have to unroll it any time soon. Also, I found my baby tortoise's new hiding spot. She likes to sit underneath the thyme plant in the herb garden. It's nice and shady under there, and she can chomp on the white alyssum flowers to her heart's content. Personally I'm not much of a Sunday rider unless I'm going out of town or am already out of town. All the good rides are crowded with weekend warriors. They only go out once a week, I let them have it. Didn't manage to get the garage cleaned. My back hurts and my shoulders got a bit sunburned doing sprinklers. Worked on this a bit as well: My brother and I are working on a stop action movie with hot wheels cars. It's a high budget affair with an all star cast. We sent Mel Gibson's people an offer, but never heard back from them. (Message edited by pwnzor on August 07, 2006) |

Were you recreating Mel's DUI stop? That's probably still a bit of a sore subject with Mad Max. Maybe you ought to re-do Days of Thunder with Hot Wheels and get in touch with Tom Cruise. |

My bike was running like crap and this guy told me it was the muffler bearing. He told me to replace it and my problems would go away. He also told me that the only way to remove the muffler bearing was with a left-handed screwdriver and a 9/16 adjustable wrench. Man...... I'm never going to get to ride my bike. I've been searching for this stuff for weeks now and can't find it anywhere. |

Oh yea he also said that I could clean the muffler bearing with a bucket of steam. Anyone know where I can get a bucket of steam from?????? |

So that's where that part goes? After I put my bike back together I had one of them laying around and couldn't remember where it came from. |

I was changing my Knifler pin the other day and I couldn't find my 4/3" Manzak dirigible pliers! Next thing you know I'll be out of blinker fluid.

Keeping fluids topped off is no laughing matter. Anyone got a set of dirigible pliers I can borrow to get this Knifler pin out? They don't have to be Manzaks like mine, even Magnetbox or Sorny would be fine. My plastics are out of control here.

I've got a .030" undersize Cannibbling pin that would probably do the job, but I lent it out with my valve seat stretcher. Sorry I can't be of more help. |

Which came first, the Knifler or the Cannibbling? THAT is the question.

Next thing you know I'll be out of blinker fluid. Better hang on to what you've got. Looks like it's out of stock at Kaleco: http://kalecoauto.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2&products_id=6 Oh yea, I hope you're running synthetic blinker fluid. Makes your blinkers run cooler. |

Be very careful with some of those blinker fluid brands. I was filling my blinkers the other day & I spilled a bit. The stuff ran down the bike and got on the exhaust. The next thing I know, yep you guessed it, Blown Muffler Bearing! Now the bike sits in the shop waiting on a new muffler nearing because the damn dealer doesn't keep any in stock. They tell me it will take 6 to 8 weeks to get it. AND because I used blinker fluid that is NOT authorized by HD it will not be covered under warranty! I've had it with Buell.

You'll need 50ft of water line and a BT punch as well to get that muffler bearing to stay in place. (another Navy inside joke from a former MM) |

Better check your warranty! That blinker fluid has NOT been approved for use by the Mo Co. It'll void your warranty and then you can't come running back to Whodom to complain now can you? Whodom, you would be well advised NOT TO recommend products which might adversely affect HD or Buell warranty. SHAME ON YOU! Next time, do the research before posting up product information! If I can find the appropriate HD/Buell Blinker Fluid, I'll post the links here as a service to my fellow riders.

I didn't think you could find these stateside...I thought for sure you'd have to order it from Europe or Asia: THE LEFT HANDED METRIC SCREWDRIVER
This screwdriver was specially formulated by the Coalition of Left Handed Peoples for the Furthering of Left Handed Recognition and Also the Metric System. (AKA CLHPFLHRAMS.) Naturally, KaleCoAuto came to a partnership with them to create this finely machine crafted screwdriver. This screwdriver uses high tech materials, such as steel, and plastic. (NASA uses steel and plastic!) This screwdriver is great for loosening screws on the right side of the vehicle, or tightening screws on the left side of the vehicle. |

I like that gray color. Mine is Blue. I wish I had the nuke blue frame, but its just the regular black. Once when I was riding @ Oktoberfast somebody lent me some Blue Blocker sunglasses, and I got to see what she would look like in a gray/ black color. Pretty nice actually, but I am a horrible painter. One day though I'd like to paint it a color that Buell never had. Maybe bright orange or something. |

If anyone needs left handed screwdrivers, I've got several laying around. Also, don't ever EVER use Kale Co blinker fluid in the flux capacitor. I tried it in my mom's blast, and the blinking lights in the damn thing blew up before I got it up to 88 MPH. Now, I'm having to wait for Doc Brown to machine a new one. I'm in the market for a little plutonium as well if anyone knows of any Libyans that I can cut a deal with, hook me up with them. I'll swing by Libya with some spare pinball machine parts. (Didn't Prince Rastus O'Dinga O'Dinga know a few of them?) Anyway, if you guys know of a better way to keep the flux capacitor running cool with that 1.21 jigawatts of electricity running through it, I'd sure love to know. I'm such a dork. |

Flux capicitors now available at Kale Co too...probably an inferior Tawainese production, but it has a great return policy.
The famed and fabled Flux Capacitor! Many flux capacitor designs have come and gone in the marketplace. Most have only been compatible with certain low production paintless cars. But now, KaleCoAuto has brought to you a modern Flux Capacitor fully compatible with any present day vehicle! This item may be expensive, but can you place a price on time travel? NOTE: Special return policy: If you are not 100% satisfied, you may return this product for a full refund, in no LESS than 30 days before you purchase it! |
