So everyone meets at Autotech in the AM, and then after the run, the bike wash, etc. is in Newtown - is that how it goes? | ||

New to the area and was wondering where some good places are to ride to. i'm coming from east haven. I'm not to familiar with the area so any help would be appreciated. Kyle | ||
| Doz |
Hey Kyle, there's places all around us! Also check out the NEBO crew, they are a good bunch to ride with, but pretty much you'll find yourself heading north into the hills. You could also take a trip across the sound via the ferry, but thats not really what I'd call riding. | ||
| Bombero |
Welcome to the area, Kyle. I'm in Orange, on the other side of New Haven. You have to ride a little bit to get some good twisty roads, I'm sure others can give you some ideas. When I have more time, I'll post some ideas. | ||
| Doz |
Thinking of doing an overnight in the Delaware water gap area, heard there was some good roads...anyone have any suggestions as to where to go? where to stay at? Thanks. | ||

Spent the fourth riding in the rain..all afternoon! As long as I kept the revs up, it was fine but it didn't want to idle and just off idle was a bit rough. Hope it dries out and runs as it did before. Anyone else dare  to ride in the rain yesterday? | ||
| Froggy |
I think it was last friday, I spent a few hours in the rain to see if the dealer fixed the problem I was having with the bike when wet, and it seems they did. I still got some pulsing on the front brake, but its not as bad as before the 5k service. That reminds me, I need to make an appointment for my 10k soon, I hit 8k the other day. | ||

Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone else has the same problem with their headlight as I do. I had to ride through Newtown last night on back roads, and was basically riding blind(scary thing on twisty roads in deer country). I would hate to have to add some dorky looking light bar or something. Any remedies? | ||
| Bombero |
Sounds like a good question for the Knowledge Vault. I am not sure, it seems to me that from what I have heard, folks were pretty pleased with their light coverage on their Uly. Not having one though, I really can't help ya. =( I do remember reading in Fuell I think that they did have an effective aftermarket PIAA light setup, but it sounds like you don't want to go that way. I was going to try a couple of Sylvania Silverstars before I changed anything on my CityX, sure you could give it a try, too. http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProducts/Automotiv eLighting/HighPerformance/Silverstar/ Here's a thread from the XB board: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/327 77/286659.html?1182741008 | ||

Man - You guys see that new 1125R?  That thing is smokin'! | ||
| Froggy |
The Ulysses headlights suck. I got a lightbar to mount some PIAAs, but i've been cheap and haven't bought them yet. | ||
| Froggy |
I'm still on the fence about the 1125. I dislike the watercooling, DOHC, non harley motor, and both headlights on. | ||

Any one up for a nice ride Saturday morning? I'm going up towards Hunter Mountain and the more the better. It would be an all day affair so you need an open calendar. | ||
| Mineislonger |
I'm interested but umm where is hunter mountain? | ||
| Nickcaro |
I'm working on a Google map to make the route. I'll post it up when its done. Hunter is over in the Catskill area in NY. Nice big open roads with long sweeping curves. | ||
| Ezbateman |
Where are you guys going to Hook up? and which Sat? I might be able to get away for the day. | ||
| Froggy |
Count me in for now, currently got nothing else going on. | ||
| Xb12s_streetdemon |
I think ill be there. what time and where? | ||
| Nickcaro |
ok, I have the Google map planned out but the link wont stick when I post it in here. There is a Mobil Gas station in New Fairfield at the beginning where we can meet and fill up. Its the intersection of 37 and 39 How do we feel about starting at 8am? I will post more details when I get up to my mom's house tonight  | ||
| Nickcaro |
Well..... I'll be at the Mobil in New Fairfield - intersection of 37 and 39 9:00 am If you want in, meet me there but I'll be out by 9:15 I estimate it will take about 4 hours | ||

Hey guys, just giving a shout out to Will (Streetdemon) and 2 other badweatherbikers I met at Starbucks last night... It was good to meet you guys. I called JC at HD Danbury and I'm going for a test ride next week on a used City-x and probably an 07 scg. Later, Johnny | ||
| Froggy |
Hey guys, just got home, i've been riding with nick all day, and a note to you all: Don't ride in the city with nick unless you bring a change of underwear. | ||
| Doz |
Yo Froggy..What, you guys got lost and wound up in the city? How was the ride? Welcome to the group Johnny5. | ||
| Nickcaro |
 It brings new meaning to the term "StreetFighter" We did a route very similar to that Google image I posted. I had to be back in the city for a 7pm birthday party so after the ride, Froggy came along with me. We had just enough time for a quick city ride. After all that I'm back at my mom's because I have to be at a Bachelor party in Fairfield Sunday. | ||
| Ulynut |
hey guys, thanks for the info. sorry about the slow response, I've been working out of town with no internet access. I'll look into those lights. Maybe even a light bar. |
