Hey guys... just got home and the guy across the street from me is selling his brand new (4 month old) 6 x 12 foot enclosed trailer. I told him I would mention it on the site. He's asking for $2500.00 but says he's flexible. If anyone is interested let me know, I'll give you his number. |

Mel, I'll be at Baileys in Patrick Henry Mall tomorrow night. Prolly around 8. The new job has me busy. However once things calm down. Definitely |

Showoff... You need some frame pucks. $2500 for a 6x12 is a great price, if it's in great shape.?? |

I gotta buy pucks? Tank, I was told you supply them free with registration to this site! You need my address? |

Mel, $2500 is a good price, and I want one, but it is too much for me right now. I would need a payment plan or something. If it doesn't look like he is getting any interest, let him know I would take it off his hands with a payment plan. Dave |

Tank... it's brand new! He drove all the way out to Roanoke to get it in the spring... He even put some big 'ol 5 star rims on it! It's nice... It's been on one trip to South Carolina for Bike Week.. and he said that it's too much for his Rodeo to pull... Even come with a spare tire! It's in front of my house. (sort of) |

+1 on the frame pucks! The best $40 I ever spent at the Stealership. I wish they were standard on the '07s! |

Yeah Mel, my wife's whole family works for Ford in Louisville, Ky. I buy anything else and I'm putting myself in danger, besides the A plan price is pretty sweet. |

Goody, Tank gave me a heads up that you replied (Thanks Tank!). I'm afraid I am broke as a convict now. When I didn't hear back from you I went a little crazy with the ole' tax relief money. I am interested in a payment plan but don't know how we could work it out or if you are interested. Shoot me a PM with some details if you have any ideas. |

Ok Fellas, I have found out where the Sports Bike Night is on the Pen. (The Southside is a bit more complicated as it moves) Thursday Night at "Checker Flag" Bar on King Street, just a stone throw away from Langley Gate. Lots of bikes, $1 Beers and Music. There were a couple of barflys there that didn't look altogether pleased that the sports bike community descended on their little hole-in-the-wall but overall I had a good time. Would have been nice to roll in there with the Thunder of 5 or 6 Buells, but I represented well I think. So.... The deal is... you go to the Thursday Night gathering and if you ask the right people, they put you on a list to get a text message with the location of the Tuesday night gathering on the Southside. (Sorta "Fight Club"-ish) I guess since I was new last night, I couldn't get on the list. But who knows about next week. So...anyone interested in hanging out... just for the sake of hanging out? |

Mel, And you couldn't find this out when the wife and kids were in Chicago. Hopefully by the time I get off leave/travel you are part of the in crowd. Dave |

Clydesdale, no prob, welcome aboard. Mel, Wednesdays nights is a good night at Hoss's Deli off of 64. So long as Im off at a reasonable hour, we will be there. Its a hoot with all the HD riders and occasionally a Buell shows up to rub it in their faces as to who is faster....Hope to be there some night soon. The Cactus on 17 is also a good place for bikers to hang out of all sorts. Its across from Hampton Roads HD, good food too. Theres also Knuckleheads across from Southside and Boneshakers in VA beach. Yeah I've been to them all....LOL Later fellas |

I got all my parts for the bike and put them on. The light was good for the rear turn, just one of the connections came loose, I ended up buying another one though and just put that one one. As for the oil leak, it looks like it is in an oil exchange cable that connects the swing arm to the engine. I can see where it is a little wet but can't tell exactly what the problem is, any suggestions?????? I thought about taking the wheel off and fixing trying to get to it to fix it, but I don't have all the tools, and I know it'll be an arm and leg at SSHD. I am open to anything. Oil leak isn't too bad, but it is a leak. Dave |

Dave, is oil leak in line or where fitting goes into the swingarm? It probably needs to be tightened or put some pipe tape on it to seal it up. Was it leaking before the accident or after? That will be the answer to it all. Goody. |

Hey All...just got back from San Antonio...anyone riding today or tomorrow? |

Goody, The line goes from swing to a connector (this is where it is leaking) which is attached to a hose, which goes to another connector (I will take a pic tomorrow). It didn't start leaking until after the accident. From what I can tell, it'll leak somewhat after I ride. If the bike sits, it doesn't leak at all. The hardest part about it is the access. I thought about just putting some sealant on it, but I can't see enough to tell if I would get all of it. |

Hi every1, this is myron, i know a few of you from the ride you guys had a few months back. just wanted to say hi and ask a question or 2. im getting the itch to get another bike, something for the curvies my harley is getting to expensive to keep replace my pegs and im scratching my $600 exhaust to much.. so im looking at getting a buell! hehe but im not sure what kind, i know i want a xb12.. im looking at the 12r but want to get every1s opinion on it. pros, cons or another model i should look at. I will say it wont be the 1125R because im not looking to get another 11k loan..so it will be used. ok i will shut up know and let you guys talk (Message edited by frinzo on June 29, 2008) |

Frinzo, You can get a used XB12 or Firebolt easily...look at craigs list or on ebay....plenty of choices. 1125R is a nice bike but I like to wait on new models to make sure all the "bugs" are out of the line before pahlunking down some hard earned $$$$ The aftermarket stuff is still catching up with the 1125. Just my 2cents. Goody |

Hey, Everyone. I'm a new and proud owner of an 08 Buell Blast which is sitting in my driveway until after I learn how ride in my upcoming MSC. I live in Virginia Beach and hope to maybe get into some group rides once I get some mileage/experience under my belt. Also, once that experience sets in, I hope to graduate to a XB12Scg or XB9SL (yep, vertically challenged here). |

XO311, by your screen name I'm guessing your a Marine Infantryman. If I'm right, or not, I too am a Marine here in Vabeach. I ride with some other Marines on a regular basis. All buell riders except for one odd ball bmw rider. If your want to ride let me know. We're a good bunch and experience level doesn't matter. We just did a good Pungo ride on Saturday. |

Hey, Since it seems we are growing, I know I might get yelled at, but anybody (I know the military is off) off and want to ride Monday (July 7) for a few hours. How long is the pungo ride? |

Clydesdale6, your guess would be right if you adjusted your fire up 100m and right 200m and fired for effect I am a former 0311 who is now "working" for the US Navy and suckin' it up every day. As far as I know, the only 03's here in VB are more than likely part of that "Ninja" Unit out of Norfolk Well, I appreciate the invitation and I will surely take you up on it as soon as I feel the ORM Factor is Good to Go. |

XO311, in Va Beach there is a secret cell of 03's hiding in the offices of EWTGLANT on Little Creek. We keep our heads down, walk softly, but carry the biggest sticks on base! Hey, we ride buells too!! Take care and hope to hear from ya. Semper Fi. |
