Aaron is on a very short list of people that I would (literally) give a blank check if he were doing work for me. |

Now giving Aaron a blank check is something I wouldn't do.. Next thing you know I would have a 124 cu in, turbo charged, ceramic coated pistons, titanium valves and 8 speed custom designed transmission!! You just can't give these engineers too much leeway!!! |

but then you'd also need a blank check for the wife's lawyer... |

I would give a blank, signed check to Aaron. I don't know any lawyers I trust that much. I am sure there are some, I just don't know of any. |

That's the point. If I had the money (which I don't) and felt like my current 9sx motor was weak for the bike (which I don't), I would ride the thing to Colorado, sit down with Aaron and tell him what my goals are for the bike, give him a blank check, and have him call me when it's done.
Not only would I trust him completely with the check, I would trust him completely to spec the work.
OK, well, there is a little lie up there. After I gave him the check, I would not wait for him to call, I would want to be there helping working on the bike where I can, staying out of the way as much as possible, and learning everything I can.
I hope to actually do this some day. Ride a clapped out used up XB9 motor to Colorado, spend a week working on it, and ride the "E ticket" home. |

Working next to Aaron and just soaking in a fraction of his knowledge is worth more than the cost of any work he is charging you for. |

Just for information sake, I'll cheerfully accept all blank checks. Just email me for my mailing address.
Thanks in advance

Blank checks seem a bit dangerous in todays world. Perhaps make it out to Community Alliance for Self Help or CASH for short and send it my way. |

A symbiotic relationship between Mr. Wilson's Buell-centric business and BWB was evident. From a selfish standpoint, it's a loss if he no longer shares his tech knowledge with those who look for such at this website. Please fix the disturbance in the Force and return the Buell-niverse to harmonic balance. |
