Speaking of the next ride, I've got a friend from my old job who'd like to join up for the next Sunday ride. But he's not on a Buell so I told him to go to hell.
Hah! No I didn't. He's on a Duc Monster 600 with some freshly scuffed CF cans. |

Much thanks to Eric, we got my Diablos mounted this morning and I don't know what to say...
HOLY HELL!!!
I used to think it was twitchy at highway speed because of wind buffeting, but no, it was those crap Dunlops. The bike is a totally different ride now. I was on 146 and I just put my clutch hand on the airbox, laid down on it, ducked in behind the flyscreen and ZOOMED. Riding at 95mph with one hand and she tracked like she was on rails (don't tell my wife!).
Wow. Thanks Eric. What's yer poison? I'll happily stock the shed's fridge for you! |

Yeah, Scotty, the Dunlops SUCK! Glad you changed tires and found out how good the Uly really is! Even the stock for '07 Pirelli's are SO much better than the stock Dunlops.
The next ride will be even more fun! See you there!

And not a scratch on the rims to boot! Lets see a H/D dealer do that!
Another happy customer at "Pain Killer Cycles"....
Wifey is designing me up some buisiness cards, should have them shortly. Try and build a buisiness to do service work/ sell parts. (and maybe even a bar? )
Will be my small "side show bob" buisiness. Maybe one day be full time if things work out. Next will be a website...
How about showing me some sh!t there jimmy!!! I need a web page!!!! |

Congrat's on the successful tire change and the increased performance guys - great job!!!
I don't know what's up for the weekend yet other than being in Somerset from like 12-8 on Sunday - battle of the bands at Pierce beach...not sure how much volunteering is required so I don't know if I'm in for the ride yet.
I've FINALLY got the rest of my parts for the truck to do the tune up and maintenance on it so that will most likely take all Friday afternoon and part of Sunday then I can drop it off at NTB for the rest.
Any going to Worcester Nationals???
I haven't looked at scheduling yet but it sounded like some great stuff to go see... |

I was out there yesterday; my nephew's Grandpa actually owns the nationals. It was pretty dead as everybody was still setting up, but when I went a couple years ago I had a good time. The freestyle stunt teams are the best draw for me. They also let anyone come down and drag. |

I tried looking at the nationals web site but it requires loading stuff they don't allow here at work...like I have something better to do than plan my weekend at work...don't know what's up with that...
I'll have to waite and check it out when I get home... |

We were just out for a 6 mile walk.I spoke with Eric briefly today and heard riding Saturday.Didn't speak to it but i'd rather do Saturday over Sunday this week if possible.Sundays' a little more complicated for me.Damnut seems to be flying out to Florida so he'll likely be away this weekend.My vacation is winding down.
I hope when i get back to work Monday that my machines' haven't forgotten they're CNC machines for weak backup batteries. |
