Found the link!looks good ceejay.Hey WILE when you say tail hump for the gixxer,are you talking about the seat cowl?I am probably to far away to do it for you but it shouldnt be hard to find someone to do it.The bad part is unless everything gets sprayed "pearl" at the same time,it will never match perfectly.You can get it close but never perfect. |

IB the same double 3's, I usually have to ask the wife my age though, to which she replies 18. S-bolt Ima still hoping to make it to your shop sometime-I know I said the same thing last year. I've sent a few Harley guys your way, but they seem to be mostly into paint right now, so I don't know if they ever stopped by. |

Guess that makes me the old man at 40 in May. Yeah, bring on the jokes! I know what you mean about the pearl and it is just the cowl. I might shoot it myself with the old Krylon. Its not bad just got a scrape from previous owner. At speed they'll never see it. My old lady says I act like 13. I think Iam when riding. So it all evens out. Rum, I dont know what you're up to but I like it anyway. Sneaky bugger you.......... Mattu |

Man thats harsh! Got home to a message from JetHot. They took care of exhaust and changed it to blue. Dude says it holds up better and the copper is really an ornamental color? I thought that was one of the reasons I got it done. I should have it all back under control come the end of next week. I'll be watching the weather and look at routes for a ride up you'r way. |

Well, well, well, NOT THE OLDEST! I know its only a year but he's still got me. Whats up with the auto Rum? I did the most amazing 360-180 combination on my way to work this morning. Looped it then swung around the other way to face traffic all while 65 mph and on the gas! Never touched the wall here at "the track" but changed drawers when I got to work. I'll call you when crawling home at 45mph. Hey Lost, how do you like the short levers, been thinking about them for the X. Anybody got a ride coming up? I'm wishing it was 70 again. Ohio weather, what can you say? |

Happy Easter!!! I actually was able to get out with one turn at mill. Now home preparing the ham. Rum, 2 water pumps? Whats up with that? Was it the new Dodge? Yes I did slow down. That took a few years off my life and gave me a few more gray hairs. Scream, how close are you? Is there anything we can do from out this way? BTW I think I've seen your shop. Is it on 23 towards Lancaster? |

Yeah its was that left over 04 i bought little over year and half ago. Im hoping that fan clutch i replaced is why the pumps where going out. |

Thanks for the offer,but I just need to finish painting it and then its done.Well I guess it does need polished up and the fluids changed but other than that it is ready.There was a shop on 23 south of columbus,but they are no longer open.My shop is in Lancaster on Fair ave.If I really needed to I could have mine done and back together in a few hours.I just need to find a few hours to get it done.I have 3 more customer motors to finish up and then I can get back to work on mine |

Glad you worked it out Rum. I cant believe you had such a time with it. Oh well, nothing is ever easy is it? Scream sounds like you'll be burning the candle at both ends to keep up. |

Rode to work on the KLR, BRRRR! Still rocked. Blasted by a few guys I work with on the way in. Pretty much know I'm insane, no hidin it now. Still waiting impatiently on header, and the weather were supposed to have. Scream, you build motors? Where do I start on a stock motor? Heads first or cams? Fuel injected 02 1203. Low miles but want more of that old torque we all crave. |

Just depends on what you are looking for at the end.I personally would go with cams if you dont plan on going real crazy with the motor.You can make a buell run real strong with factory heads that have been worked over and a good set of cams.I am assuming that you already have an exhaust system of some sort and a high flow air filter.you will also need to get something for your fuel injection if you dont already have something.a good oil cooler is money well spent too.I have not played with a fuel injected buell yet so I would not be much help in that department,everything else I could help with.Let me know if you have any questions. |

Scream, I have a Buell race kit with pipe and ecu. Running a Forcewinder. Have also but not on a Dynojet power comm. Where can heads be flowed? Whats type of cams do you suggest? Oil cooler was the first thing I put on. It wont happen this year but probably the end of season. Need to put miles on to get to know the X first. I think I told ya, I cant leave nothing alone! |

Rum.....Rum......Rum.....Rum.....ANYONE? He must be sleeping. Hey Scream, what do think about the cams and heads? Is it an easy task or should I wait till a teardown is necessary? |

I'll give you three guess where i've been. Sleeping would mean i actually spend time at home. Nope not in jail either. You give up yet. Yep your right work!!!!!!!!! To much shit going on to talk. I need some sleep heading back in in a little while. Just posting to let you know im still living. Mattu next time you call leave a message i'll call you back. Your best bet would be to catch me on my cell i usually have that on me at all time. |
