Just checked the weather for Sat. Looks like it will be a fair day with 20% chance of rain. 60% chance a night. (Message edited by buellin_ri on April 21, 2006) |

Can anyone recommend a painter in the Boston area? Even a little farther out would be fine. We have an S1W white manta tank that needs repainting. Hoping to find someone with experience with the nylon tank. Thanks, james |

wow...a great day! a bunch of harleys and a couple of buells at danbury h/d. they needed a bigger parking lot!!! a great party and an excellent ride/poker run up to kent and back. only saw a couple of buell in the parking lot before the run(a couple of 12s and an 12r all black. after the run though saw a few more, but the real contingent must have arrived just as i was leaving...a pack of 4 i think! oh well, had to see what was going on at the dairy...(should have stayed at the dealer for the free pig and stuff!) not sure about the poker run though...a lot of people and i had 2 pair aces high! |

Hello all. I'm new to the site and live in south Mass. Anyone here going to Laconia? I've been going for about 13 years and I'm headed up that Tuesday after work. Picked up a XB12R early last year and I'm in the middle of building it the way I want it to look. (and I had a wicked crash) Would love to meet up with some of you to go for a ride as soon as I'm done putting it back together. |

What's up Eric Thanks for the greeting. I found this site about a month ago and been really checking it out lately, since I wrecked my bike on 95 and I'm totally going through it now. I'm pretty much just waiting for my forks to come back from being anodized and I should be riding again. I really would love to be riding by now. This site looks pretty cool and it seems there's a lot of cool people offering to help each other out. Have you ever replaced your oil drive gear with the bigger one from the factory? Curious because I'm about to do that and wondering how much of a pain or easy it is going to be. |
