My Aussie partner, Greg Watters ,is coming back and bringing a bunch of friends.They shipped 5 bikes and a car arriving mid August. We will be headed to Bubs and WOS. Hope to see some of you all there. Fired up the 750 after about 6 months of upgrades and engine work.

Trying to get a good dyno run in but keep popping throttle bodies out of the boots under boost,have some better clamps and stronger plenum straps. But,bike made 205 HP at only 9500 rpm,revs to 13,500------and it is only a 750!!!!Dyno HP chart looked like launch ramp!!! |

Yup, sept 12th it is. The new turbo from Greg in Australia arrived yesterday and got it on and running. Ball bearing Garrett,spins up very fast,should make gobs more power. Can't wait. Pick up Gerg and his wife monday and Kimmy on weds. Then off to the Salt!!! |

There should be at least 6-8 Buells at Bubs at Bonneville in 2 weeks. I know Team NRHS alone will be bringing 3 Buells: An XBRR, An S1 and a Blast. And I believe Twin Motorcycle from the Netherlands has teamed up with Glendale Buell and is bringing 3 Buells also. (Message edited by queenofspeed on August 18, 2010) |

Sorry, it does not look like we will have the XBRR at Bubs as the ECM appears to have crapped out last night while on the dyno. Unless somebody has one we can borrow on very short notice I think it will be left at home. If all goes well the Blast should be capable of going over 120mph this year. Keep our fingers crossed!!

Lucille, we MIGHT have access to the one on the Bartels XBRR-engined XB12. The tune will be WAY off. PLEASE PM ME ASAP or email at work (working late tonight. steve "Dottie" slaughter (sitting AT) lmco (another dot) com I can call down and talk to Mitsu, see if he can pull it and get you their key/cable. I assume you have saved your maps? (geeez, I'm supposed to be on Glendale's side of this battle!) |
