I was lurking before that but my profile says I registered Sep 03, so I don't remember the old days on Badweb. |

Easy, don't worry too much about the registered date, a lot of folks are dated around: >April 25, 2003 when the BBS last had a major upgrade. |

>do you remember BadWeb before it had the XBoard or the Thumper Forum? I remember when the thumper-lover from Arizona posted covert pics (on his site, we linked from here) of the Blasts he found running around the hills. Joe? I think? |

man I'm oooold - I remember that too - I didn't even have the Blast then. It's what convinced me to go get one - and yes, I rode it home in the snow (gotta stay on topic, ya know) |

"And remember Corey claiming he is going to be using Bumpus HD to "independantly" dyno his products?" Which Bumpas? I am in memphis TN and bought my 1998 S1W from Bumpas HD/BUELL of Memphis, to my eventual regreat. If this guy 420 is local, maybe I can look him up. However there are at least two other Bumpas shops, Jackson Tn, and Murfesbourough Tn. |

"Math does not take into account the coefficient of drag...as has been said, some nice gentlemen took an XB12R to the saltflats and managed a top recorded through timing lights of 125mph" The 125 MPH was running at 6,200 RPM it pulled all the way to 7,000 RPM 142 mph befor the rev limiter shut it back to 6,200 rpm after approx 2 seconds. Fact not maths PS: I aint no gentelman I am Australian. |

Dyana, I'm real, I work out of the office and if you would like to check my credentials just drop me an e-mail and I'll shoot you over my cell number. Or you can google me "Rob Hughes" "Orient Express" to see that this whole thing isn't a trick anyone is trying to play on you or anyone else. You also might have seen me on the grassy knoll.... |

Rob, if you truly arent Corey then I apologize for saying you were all the same person. But I will also caution you to beware of Coreys business practices. Nuff said on that. |

The 125 MPH was running at 6,200 RPM it pulled all the way to 7,000 RPM 142 mph befor the rev limiter shut it back to 6,200 rpm after approx 2 seconds. My bad Paul, I misunderstood the answers. I understood it to be that you guys couldn't get it above 125 because the revlimiter kept hitting. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Oh and my apologies for insulting you aussies Guess I will have to buy the first round if I make it down there. |

Why bother? For only $6000 I'll build you a 140mph Blast. Hehe... |

For 6K I can build a 140 MPH Blast too. (It may look like a used 900 Ninja when I've got all the mods done though.) edited by hootowl on April 29, 2004 |
