Actually, the guy who bought one is waiting for a yellow/orange model. We got this one in and wasn't expecting it. Come on down and see, (bring your tip toes) Chris | ||

well, it's not just a matter of swapping shafts... throttle body was bored and the shaft has been modified to accept a larger butterfly plate.... I think I am going to try and make another, if that fails to happen, then I will modify the existing spare. I will say this...A lot of work was put into this throttle body relative to making it bigger. does anybody know why they make the shafts out of brass rather than something sturdier? | ||
| Gowindward |
Sam, Is the throttle body an aluminum, magnesium, or zinc die casting? If so, brass wouldn't give you corrosion problems like steel. Just my guess. | ||

The AMA has a flat track race this Saturday at Sedalia.Its a 1/2 mile track thats a blast to watch.The racing prelims start at 6:00,the finals start at 8:00.Tickets are 26$ I was told.If some others are interested we can all ride down togeather,or not.If the weather holds out,which it is supposed to,I am riding down. | ||
| Keef |
Sam, I know neither is the answer but what would you rather have your engine try to digest soft malible brass or hard tempered steel?  | ||
| Gravedigger |
Sam, Are you kidding me??? Is this the same exact problem that I had prior to Laguna???? Hopefully the screws are still intact and you don't have to go through what I did!! Keith p.s. The Canada hunting trip was completely shot down lastnight! Something about me allready getting to go to california this year and her not getting to go on a trip yet! blah, blah, blah,  (Message edited by gravedigger on August 25, 2005) | ||

Ferris Bueller Labor Day Ride Okay, guys the plan is to meet Jerry at 11:00'ish at the junction of US-136 and MO-149. We will be meeting at Zip's (the gas station next to Gail's) at 6:30am on Monday morning and leaving at 6:45am. We have a good 3 1/2hrs of riding plus 2 fuel stops, so that why the early hours.

Loren, what is your route through KC? I ask because maybe I can meet you somewhere to avoid riding 20 miles Southwest to Zipz just to ride back again. I am at 470 & Woods Chapel in Lee's Summit. | ||
| Gowindward |
Bill, I was planning on heading up I-435 and getting off on M0-210 and heading East, but we can run up I-470 and then take MO-291 up to MO-210. What's at that intersection as a place to pick you up? That can be a second pick up point for you guys out East. | ||
| Rustyx1w |
My band is playing Frankie D's Wed night from 7-11, so come on out on your Buells and see what we have been cooking up in the basement studio | ||
| Dustyjacket |
At 470(291) and Woods Chapel road There is: Paddy O'Quigley's that is a well-known spot, but there is also a quick trip and a price chopper. I could also stage near 210 and 291 - there is nothing there, but I could wait by the side of the road. | ||
| Gowindward |
Bill, Let's make the 2nd pick up point the Quick Trip there at I-470 and Woods Chapel Rd. See you there about 7:00'ish Monday morning | ||
| Dustyjacket |
Great. I can then use my smoked faceshield. Sunday I left at 5:30 and I had to use my clear shield all day. Is Jerry, or anyone, using FRS/GMRS radios on this? | ||
| Gowindward |
I don't know about the radios. | ||

Is Jerry, or anyone, using FRS/GMRS radios on this? i'm not, don't know about anyone else. FB | ||
| Dustyjacket |
Maybe a few of us should exchange cell phone numbers in case of delays, etc...... | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
Jerry/Ferris cell: 760/379-7883 will be at intersection of US-136 and MO-149 South at 11 a.m.-ish Mon 9/5. Gravedigger, did we ever decide when/where we're gonna hook up? FB (Message edited by jerry_haughton on August 30, 2005) | ||
| Dustyjacket |

KC MOB, I hope someone can help. I live in the KC metro northland and am trying to sell my 89 RS 1200 that I've owned for the past seven years. Its been a great ride but have to sell. I have just posted on the KC least wanted thread and am hoping for some help from the local buell crew. I'll answer any questions you have just email me. EMAIL: pumperco34@yahoo.com All I'm looking for is that it goes to a true Buell nut and that a reasonable offer price is made. Thanks, Brett C. KCMO FD | ||
