Hey Mark. I'm not sure if your brother John posts here, but if you talk to him tell him it was me that gave him the high sign in Bithlo yesterday morning as he was waiting to pull out on to 50. I was heading east bound on 50 around 8:15 AM when I saw him. I wasn't sure if he recognized my bike or not. |

Always read them... never posted before. Yes, I figured it was you. I was just out for a quick run to warm the bike up for it's first oil change. Not being overly mechanical I was a little hesitant but it was pretty easy. Hope the storm blows through and no one suffers any damages. John |

Likewise John. I took a nice ride over to the beach and spent a couple of hours there. Perfect weather! Good thoughts to everyone through the storm. |

Also, if you need any help with anything on your bike John give me a call. I've done quite a bit to mine myself and live very close to you. |

I got willing very fast John after seeing the $70.00/hour charge for labor at the dealership. I never dared do anything mechanical myself, but realized quickly how easy everything so far has been using the shop manual. It may take a bit longer the first time for everything, but now I can removed the wheels, change brake pads both front and rear, fluid changes, adjustments without looking at the manual. |

Where was everyone last night? Buells are submersible. |

Paul, I would like to do more mechanically, but hopefully, there won't be to much call for it. I did just get the Service Manual for the '08 XBs on ebay for $30.00. (In case anyone needs it ,you're welcome to borrow it) Can't wait for this storm to get out of here. I hadn't started my van in three weeks prior to Fay and have now have had to use it three days in a row. |

Sorry guys! I totally spaced out on last night. Someone at work even asked me if I was going to my "bike thing" at Baldwin Park and it went right over my head. I'll have to see about next week. We have a ton going on at work, but I'll do my best to be there weather permitting. |

Hey all, Just wanted to say "Hi" and introduce myself. My name is Jago. I traded my 04 FLHRCI (around 45,000 miles) in for an 08 XB12S just over a year ago and after more than 15,000 I still don't regret it one bit. I've been to this site several times before, but it never looked like there were many Buell riders in Orlando. I was bored at work today, surfing for parts, and I ran across OBOG. That's all for now I guess. Thanks for reading. |
