Yo Blake, smooth entry. I see your ego has'nt kept you out of any arguments lately. And like always, if I can't outrun you at OHR, I must not be much of a man, or Texan for that matter. As I told you before, we don't have anything like a track around here. But the drag strip is only 45 mins from my house. And, did I mention that we won the state finals in the Buell class at Sealy this past October? I plan on getting my track liscense, perhaps this summer. But a little surgery on the fifth thoracic vertibra in my neck has to happen first. Sorry to disapoint you for the delay, I hate to postpone anything that would stroke your ego like outrunning a newbie on the track. Wish you the best of luck with your site,and to all your loyal followers.

First, I had the opportunity to meet Blake in person, and I don't have any of the negative impressions expressed here. Second, best muscle car is a toss up between the 1967 Shelby GT500 fastback and the 1966 Shelby Cobra. Now if only I could afford either. Finally, the only blonde I care for is the one at home taking care of our new/first baby, my wife! Posts: 16 | From: Janesville, WI | Registered: Oct 2002 | IP: Logged |

He did not say word one negative about anyone; didn't even mention a name; he didn't even suggest why I should review this thread; he simply offered that I might want to check out this thread. For all I knew it was a thread on a new big bore Buell XB. You on the other hand derive pleasure from instigating discord launching undeserved public character attacks. You talk behind peoples backs and even start new discussion threads for the sole purpose of ridiculing others. That flat out does NOT cut it with me. A person exhibiting that type of behavior on a consisten basis will not be a friend of mine. I hope you will reconsider your online behavior. It is reprehensible.

Blake, I have never met Dyna and I have no doubt he can defend himself. But did Dyna really start this thread "for the sole purpose of ridiculing others"? quote:This is ridiculing someone? Court did post that, I don't know if he "roared" it. And then to call Dyna's online behavior "reprehensible"? Who's the one "launching undeserved public character attacks"?

And like always, if I can't outrun you at OHR, I must not be much of a man, or Texan for that matter. Where did that come from? I was simply inviting you to join in on the fun. Trust me, I am no pro racer. I do recall some of your stories from the old ATC board, stuff like taking sweepers at 100 mph while dragging pegs and other such heoric tales. As I told you before, we don't have anything like a track around here. I thought you were in Austin. Trust me, it is well worth the drive to Oak Hill, for a weekend of blasting around the track. The CMRA also runs at Texas World Speedway in Bryan/College Station. I guess that would be the closest track to you. But the drag strip is only 45 mins from my house. And, did I mention that we won the state finals in the Buell class at Sealy this past October? Too cool. Please elaborate, you know, who-what-where-when-how. I plan on getting my track liscense, perhaps this summer. But a little surgery on the fifth thoracic vertibra in my neck has to happen first. Good luck with that. Sounds dire. I hear the vet school at A&M has some students who moonlight for cheap. Sorry to disapoint you for the delay, I hate to postpone anything that would stroke your ego like outrunning a newbie on the track. The great thing about my ego is that it has no need of stroking. BTW this Saturday will be my first race, so I'll be the newbie. Wish you the best of luck with your site, and to all your loyal followers. The David Koresh of Buells, Classic... Unfortunately I hold no such power over anyone. Even my 13 year old Border Collie, Roger, ignores me if he doesn't like what I am telling him. Like I said before, it would be interesting to meet you in person.

I disagreed with you about the benefits of longer conrods so in your mind I am an arrogant blatherer of bullshit? Who here has the ego problem again? At least you guys present an informed argument. He's so full of himself anyway, there is hardly room for anyone else. I'm sensing a pattern here. It seems you don't like me and feel justified slandering me. Sure I make mistakes.

Maybe you should take that up with Court in the topic where he posted. Don't think he was attacking ATC, just giving his perception of things. I also talk with alot of people at Buell. I also like reading Badweb, and Sacborg. The ATC forum gets about 5000 hits a week. You mean visits, I think I saw where you already clarified that. ATC is growing with 2 member sign-ups a week. That's great news! ATC has the best sponsor package Please define "best." Buell does advertise with ATC. I haven't seen them advertise on any other BORG groups. Your vision is very predjudiced. During its run on BadWeB the Buell "Call the Cops" ad garnered over 100,000 exposures along with a very good percentage of click throughs. We had over 62 visits from Buell and mother ship Harley Davidson this month alone. I'm curious how you know this. I have no clue who from the factory might be visiting BadWeB. I've personally sold over 20 Buells accross the US using ATC in the last 4 months. Did you get any commission. LOL! ATC has helped over 10 people get what they needed in repairs with Buell Cust-Sevice. I failed on a couple of those issues. Sorry "DYNA". I did try buddy. Dyna sunk his own ship on that deal. No need whatsoever for you to apologize. ATC is also designing web-sites for many of the sponsors and has already finished Yost Performance's new site which is live. So ATC is now in the web page business too? Do we have a separate forum for that? Again I'm a fan of all the major BORG sites I'm skeptical of that since you didn't notice the Buell ad on BadWeB. It's a low paying job done for the love of Motorcycles and Buells. I'll never attack someone else site. If that's what he thinks let him think he's the best. I don't think Court meant to attack anyone. He is the ultimtate gentleman and diplomat. His statement may hae upset some, but I can assure you he did not mean to attack ATC or anyone here. He was obviously mistaken as you have set the record straight. I've never met Blake or Court. You are truly blessed among Buellers. Jay has told me there both great people and I value Jays words. That Jay, what a story teller he is. I've placed calls to Court to share info, and have never gotten a return call/message. Doesn't sound like the Court that I know. I won't even post on Badweb about his comments. That is unfortnate. Personally, I like to address such issues at the source. Like I'm doing here. Court of anyine else is always welcome to ATC and can call us anytime for info we may be ablt to pass on. Are you implying that you have inside info concerning things Buell? If so, COOL! Please share! Got to go Erik on the phone... Who's "Erik"? -------------------- Blake http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/ Posts: 23 | From: Kilgore, Texas | Registered: Oct 2002 | IP: Logged |

Dyna sunk his own ship on that deal. No need whatsoever for you to apologize....... Ship is still afloat there Blake. Nothing is done or sunk or whatever yet. I have already stated before on numerous occasions that once I got to the bottom there was nothing scott could have done as it wasnt Buells fault. They are willing to work with me, its my local dealer thats being the assholes. Now I suppose you will claim you have never heard of a dealer that screwed someone over or was unwilling to help. I have also had contact from at least 3 individuals who are certified Harley/buell mechs who have offered their services to repair the bike for next to nothing.

"I won't be lead around like a little puppy or a sheep"??? You can dissent with spirit and honor. No need to go posting all over the internet that so and so said such and such. Do you know how totally childish that is. I know it's deep Winter where you are, but get a friggin' life man! n That kind of shit leads only to ill feelings and resentment. If I see it as bullshit then I will call it as I see it. That is fine. But there is a term you may be unfamiliar with... "respect." Court keeps putting little snide remarks in half of his posts because I said "a million years ago". How is that acting mature? Let me get this straight...

You live to argue & banter back & forth & will go to almost any lengths to either win the argument or ridicule the other party into submission. Please show me where I have EVER "ridiculed the other party into submission." I'll be waiting. Admittedly, I have a finite fuse when it comes to being berated in a public forum. I strive to attenuate my assholishness as much as possible. I do have a fondness for vigorous debate, especially over technical issues or current events and political philosophies. I don't think you will find many cases where I am the instigator of personal derision. You certainly won't find me talking behind someone's back or on a website they don't frequent. There are a few cases where I will make an issue personal... If it involves derision of my country or my friends/family, the guns will come out blazing and my 25% Italian blood kicks in. Court is a good friend of mine. He is one of those very few rare individuals who I feel deeply priveledged to know. Sure he has his faults, but they pale in comparison to his gifts and attributes. -------------------- Blake http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/ Posts: 23 | From: Kilgore, Texas | Registered: Oct 2002 | IP: Logged |

I not trying to have a contest but didn't like being attacked. A million what? Hits? If I'm not mistaken (I could very well be as I am NO authority on things internet), each item on a web page that is called from the site, like the graemlins and icons for instance, is counted as a hit. So for instance when posting a new message here and on SacBORG we see the 25 UBB graemlins and icons to choose from. I think those each count as one hit as they do on when loaded as part of the message display pages as well. Each icon over each post counts as a hit too. I'm not sure, but I know the "hit count" on BadWeB is so ridiculously high that it cannot reflect anything meaningful from a visitor tally standpoint. There just aren't that many Buell enthusiasts in the world. The number of successful page calls IS meaningful in that regard. I could be wrong, but the numbers make more sense that way.

THEREFORE WE AT ATC KNOW WHO IS SAYING THESE THINGS AND CAN STOP OR BAN PEOPLE THAT HAVE NO POSITIVE VALUE TO THE FORUM AT ALL.Even Dyna has SOME Positive Value...no Greg really you do why am I writing in caps?...anyway... we try to keep this a Buell Specific Forum BUT NOT BUELL ONLY..thats silly alot of Buell Owners have many types of bikes and OTHER INTERESTS that are compatible I like to FLY SMALL PLANES and SCUBA DIVE, I was a SKI BUM IN UTAH..etc....I am A BUELLAHOLIC..though I may get a Victory just to PISS HD OFF as I AM HD/Buells TARGET BUYER..I am 28, got my first Bike a Blast at 24..have Owned 4 Buells in this short Time. yeah yeah I am yoing and dumb..but I do run my own Business..and have been Scotts Business Advisor here..I beleave ATC has true Potentional to be more thsn just a Web based hang out...an Independant Alternative to BRAG..again not a Competitor to BRAG... anyway I am off the topic... I personally could careless whether Eric Buell shakes my hand or not THE ONLY #1 REASON WHY I AM SO DEDICATED TO THIS DAMN CLUB AND TO THE BUELL MARQUE IS ONE REASON THAT I WILL ARGUE AD NAUSEAM ABOUT- I WANT AMERICAN MADE SPORT BIKES TO OUT SELL ALL IMPORTS I BELIEVE IT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF OUR COUNTRY..if I can help in just this one little way(Motorcycles being a VERY SMALL DROP in the ECONOMIC FOOD CHAIN relatively speaking) That, and I LOVE THE SOCIAL ASPECT OF THIS CLUB..yadda yadda yadda enough about me... anyway WTF..this is Scott's job not mine..I'm only a Volunteer! I'm am just the Ed McMahon of ATC anyway so what the hell do I know...Maybe I am just getting to be a grumpy old man. hell, it's 1:45AM here,I worked 12 Hours today I am going to bed.... and I mayy just Delete this whole stupid thread if it keeps on getting any more stupid.

quote:Blake he stated that nobody from Buell would ever have their cookies snatched by this site. What the hell does that mean exactly to you???? It means nobody from Buell would come here. Thats not a mis-interpretation at all. And slander behind his back?? I have said the same things to him on badweb. Slander also means to make false statements. I have not made any false statements. The crap I posted was shit he wrote. You really got let go of the attitude of being the web nanny for everyone. Courts a big boy & should be able to defend himself just fine. I have noticed one thing tho. When you are wrong you have been man enough to confess to it & admit you were wrong. Court simply avoids the subject & wont mention another word about it. Ive been wrong a hell of a lot more than ive been right & I dont have a problem with admitting it. Nobodys perfect but the front put up by court sure as hell is an attempt to make him look like he is. -------------------- Posts: 1018 | From: Wisconsin | Registered: Oct 2002 | IP: Logged |

yaaaawwwwwnnnnnn..... insomnia sucks. You probably won't believe me, but until I just read your statement, I was clueless on the meaning of "have their cookies snatched". I thought it was some kind of euphemism. He was talking about the browser cookies. D'OH!!! BadWeB allows disabling of cookies. I like cookies. As to slander... You posted... quote:So Dyna... show me where Court stated... anything like "how it's stupid that you have to register to check out the forum here." You apparently discerned that from his statements... quote:That my friend is slander. The rest of the story in case any anti BadWeBr's are interested. What Court actually said... quote:To clarify, the "other folks" to whom Court referred were non-sponsors sneaking in a few free advertisements in the forum. then... quote:Then from you... quote:from Court... quote:you... quote:Court... quote:Then your unfortunate initial derisive remark... quote:To which Court replied with obvious good humor... quote:To which you scoffed... quote:and then added... quote:to which Court once again affirmed... quote:whereby you further mocked... quote:At which point Court felt obliged to begin ignoring your combative derision. This after he had repeatedly expressed well wishes for your new grand baby and shared good natured joking about your propensity to display the SacBORG salute. He did later post in response to someone else... quote: -------------------- Blake http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/ Posts: 23 | From: Kilgore, Texas | Registered: Oct 2002 | IP: Logged |

quote:It is obvious to anyone who actually knows Court, that you do not. The man is one of the most generous, kind, and self deprecating persons that I know. Anyone who would feel threatened by his quirky but genuine good natured banter would have to suffer from severe lack of self esteem. Lose the negative. Look for the positive.
