Oh no I got home at the right time.
I too had good time. Hopefully we will be able to do it again, and hopefully more people will be able to show. |

Hey, who is going to Homecoming and when? I was going to go for just Wednesday/Thursday nights. Sorry I've been out of touch for a long time, life has been a little crazy but I'm almost done living in two states (I'm in MN this week). Trying to decide whether to ride the S1 from Mpls on Wednesday or drive to IL and ride the 9R a much shorter distance to Milwaukee. Is anyone riding from MN?
I should be moved back up to MN in a couple months once I get a house. Would like to get out on some evening or weekend rides with the new Buellers in town this fall!
Anyone interested in any track days later this year? A few are August 25th at BIR, Sept 18 at BIR or Oct 26-27 at Road America. |

Eric, where did you order your hard luggage from? Did it come with brackets that fit or did you have to get them fabricated? I have an XB9 and I would love to get something like what you got installed.....
Thanks |

I'm not going to make homecoming, dissapointingly. We have family coming for the 4th, and I'm leaving for the big east coast ride for 2 weeks on the 19th...
I can't wait!
We'll take the Lake Express and head to Niagara Falls, then to the Catskills, and NYC for a day - then to the top of Mt. Washington in N.H., back across VT and through the Adirondaks, up to Canada and into Algonquin Park, skirt the north shore of Lake Huron, into the U.P. at Sault St. Marie, and home via Northren Wisconsin. I'm taking two straight weeks off and will have Ann on the pillion.
Sorry I will miss the 25th, but I'm celebrating with the S3T by putting 3,000+ mi on it instead.  |

Naustin, I just rode through VT, NH, ME, CT, MA, NY last week. It was great! Tried to go up Mt. Washington but it was soooo foggy. Just like pea soup. Thats too bad.... Saw 2 black bear on the way there though. Didnt see any moose, lots of signs for them. I was nervous that one would come popping out of the woods and I would hit it and that would be it! It would be like hitting a brick building.
Have fun! |

Eric, Julie and I will probably be going. Her family is celebrating her parent's 50th Anniversary at Big Sandy Resort this weekend, so she's shelling out quite a bit of cash for that. We'd have to get a hitch on her Sportage so that we could bring her new bike. Julie got herself a Redcat CT90, which is a copy of a 60's-70's Honda trail bike. It's street legal, but will only go about 40mph. Really cute bike. She wants to ride up to the factory on it. Anyway, we'll be leaving on Thursday, Julie has to work Monday through Wednesday nights. Maybe we could meet up Thursday at the factory. Give Julie or me a call. Not necessarily about Homecoming, just give us a call to prove you still exist. |

Check this out, two times in one day!
Brad, will call this weekend, I think I just decided to head to some thing in La Crosse Saturday with my sister and her husband who is from there. Oh wait, it already is Saturday.
Nick, that trip sounds awesome, enjoy! We'll hookup later this year on some fun roads in WI. Ride safe.
Cindy, there are probably some old posts somewhere with the details of the hard cases. They're Givi, got them online from happy trails, who sells lots of motorcycle touring gear. I built the brackets myself, using some Givi mounts for Harleys that were discontinued. This was all before the Uly came out, but I'd still rather have a 9R. I can get more detail if you want, are you in MN or MD?
Lou, yes I exist...sort of. It will be a while before things are stable but I think I see the light at the end of the tunnel, or is that a train? I'm not sure my plans for next week yet but was going to do the factory stuff Thursday, stick around that night, then back to Chicago on Friday. We can meet at the factory, are you going to miss most of the day again? |

Eric, so far the plan is to see if we can get a hitch on Julie's Sportage and borrow Brad's trailer. Julie won't get home from work 'till 4:30 Thursday morning, so I'd have drive that morning if we're going to make it to the factory in time, so there's a lot of maybes. Worst case is that we'll get there Thursday night. We can call you when we get there. |

I figured out my plan today. Going to ride the S1 from Minneapolis to Milwaukee with Brad on Wednesday morning. I'll be there all day Thursday for the stuff at the factory and then whatever is going on in the evening (other than the Buell dinner that I didn't register for). Friday morning I'll head back to MN via some backroads to catch up with the family for the holiday weekend. I'm at the Brookfield Sheraton Wed/Thur nights.
See ya there! |

Lou,
The point of having a motorcycle is to ride it.
Have fun at the event. |

Nils, Julie's bike will only do about 35mph. If we want to get there, the trailer is the only way. |

Had the bike out a few times in the last couple days. It's nice to be able to get on it again after the surgery. Wouldn't you know that it'd snow just when I can ride again. I guess it's time to start on projects. Hey, Mike, do you think I could study your Latus? I'd like to build one this winter and need something to go by. Sorry we didn't get the barbecue in this year. Oh, I'm also going to be playing around with my powdercoating gear some more. We'll see what I can do with it. |

Not a problem. Did you get the edelbrock muffler? If so I can help you build it in an afternoon. |
Ravensmith22

I need measurements before I can pick out the right muffler. All of the Edelbrocks that were used for the Latus are gone, so I'll have to find a different one. On the other hand, I do have a stock XB12 exhaust I could chop, so maybe I should go that route. I'd still need help with the internals, though, if that would be ok. |

Nope. Chopping this stock can seems to be the best choice for me now. It's here, and it's cheap. I did a lot of research earlier, and it shouldn't take long to do, plus I won't have to fab mounts for the chin fairing. |

Hey folks. I will be out there this weekend (unfortunately not on my bike). If anyone wants to meet up that would be great.

Nobody checks this area I guess? How is everyone here? I have been out here for several weeks now. Looking to meet fellow Buell riders. I have a Lightning. I love that bike. I have a lot of miles on it now. Have ridden it in 18 states I think?
Anywho, just saying hi. Hope everyone is well here....

Try starting a post at the top of the page. Nobody posts at the bottom much anymore. Its easy to get overlooked down here. I only saw your post while looking for something else.} |
