| Life History/Philosophy: |
As far as the Buell affilliation, our Brother, Rogel, left his Scooter behind, at Cycle Imagery of Santa Cruz CA. while waiting for a throttle body part on order(snapped a butterfly shaft). Rogel ironicly never recieved the part, the reason, an act of God. Rogel on a routine Sunday ride, on another MC, of his Aprilla RSV Mille R, got into a fatal wreck....months later Joe D of Cycle Imagery called our Family to inform us of Rogel's Buell S3, (note at this time I have never seen or heard of a BUELL), Joe mentioned that we need to pick it up, the bike, or something. I have Four Brothers, none of them cared to pick it up. Basically, spoke to Joe, after he slapped the intake together got the green light, in the pick up process BUELL ride, "Santa Cruz to Salinas" via US Cabrillo Hwy 1, got hooked, on that HD torque, Yall's know the rest. 2B1ask1.
