| Performance Mods!: | Not sure at the moment, still checking things out. Bike appears to be stock except for one obvious modification, There is a manual VOES switch just above the ignition switch. Never seen this before, anyone got info on this? It's too bad the original owner isn't a BadWeb member I would really be greatful for some history on the bike. |
| Problems/Miles (Please be specific): | I do know that all the recall work has been done. Super clean bike. No problems so far. I will update later in the season if something pops up. |
| Other Mods/Misc/Customization.: | No mods planned at this time. I think with this one I am going to keep is as orginal as possible. |
| Favorite Rides (Roads and Routes): | I ride it to work mostly. I have my favorite back roads from Home in Livingston Cty to UofM Hospital in Ann Arbor. I like Chilson Rd to M36, to Merrill, to Stawberry Lake Rd, to Mast, then along the Huron River into A2. As long as I dont get behind gramma or a gravel hauler. My favorite ride of all time was a few summers ago, my Dad and I met in Big Timber Montana and spend a week riding Montana, Wyoming, and some of North Dakota. He brought his 70 FLH (Now mine) and I rented a Dyna low rider from Yellowstone HD in Bozeman. The Bear Tooth Pass and Yellowstone were the highlights of the trip. It was Mid July and we saw everything from 90deg heat to snow and ice. Oh and how could I forget getting caught in the middle of a heard of Buffalo. |
| Why I do/don't ride a Buell: | My first Buell was 2001 P3 I really enjoyed that bike because it was the perfect bike for my daily commuting needs. It was quick, very nice for shuttling in and out of traffic. But under powered for rides of any length, and very sensative to heat on those really hot summer days caught in traffic. It was fun to ride also. Plus my 70 FLH is a gas HOGG!!! |
| How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: | They need improvement? |
| Life History/Philosophy: | My quote is my phlisophy. I am a Design Engineer, I design power and manual seat adjusters for the automotive industry. I love what I do, and thats all that matters. Wife says I sit and play video games all day, it just ain't true. Only half the day I do have to do some work ya know. |

| Preferred engine oil (brand/grade): | Mobil One Synthetic: 20W50. |
