Hey,
I’m sick of this election shit night after night, as if there’s no other news in the world. It’s got me down. I’m going to bury you with almost 15,000 words of news and 90 percent of it will be positive, about custom motorcycles and sex. Why doesn’t the general media get it.
Oh, by the way, 800 might die in Iraq this year (probably a lot less) but 60,000 will die of the flu in the United States this year, who failed? That’s all I have to say let’s party. It’s Love Ride Weekend, and it snuck up on me. California Bike week is taking over and the action will be none-stop all weekend in Los Angeles. I’m hiding out here trying to finish the Panhead patio table.
D&D Has done it again with a performance reverse megaphone exhaust pipe–D&D?s competition exhaust system is available for the traditional Triumph TT-style pipe. It is designed with a reverse megaphone open pipe and comes with a competition muffler pack. It is manufactured with a midnight black ceramic coated stepped header and comes complete with air pump eliminators and jet kit. here for details.

ON MYRTLE BEACH NEW REGS–Bandit, If the Myrtle Beach City Council does not feel it needs the revenue from bike week, let’s all just stay home next spring. With the deepening recession our own local economies could use our cash. Instead of spending our money in Myrtle Beach, why not spend it at your local chopper shop.
Get that engine upgrade or new springer on your bike. Take your favorite lady out for drinks and dinner after a ride on your favorite roads. You get my point. Don’t spend your money where they don’t appreciate it! Thanks for all the great info. Keep up the good work.

I have slammed the front end into the ground at least 100 times in five years. Like a well trained dog, the Buell Milenium X1 wags its tail and says “wanna try again ?”…. Buells are the most awesome street wheelie machines available. Their broad low rpm torque band just pulls the front end up cleanly, and helps us all get the skill we want – easily done, and if ya get scared and do a funky “shut down/slam down”, the forks have no problem at all….. Stop being a pussy….(sorry, I meant wimp). –David “Holeshot” Larson Affiliate Event: Bigtwin Bike Show, Netherlands – last call for entries–The weekend commencing Friday November 7th will see the 17th annual Bigtwin Bike Show & Expo (formerly known as Motorsale) open its doors for three days packed with custom action for consumers in The Netherlands and beyond.The event, held at the AutoTron facility at Rosmalen, near Eindhoven, has long been one of the most popular custom events in Europe, and is regularly supported by an exhibitor community that includes custom shops and bike builders from the domestic Dutch market and elsewhere in Northern Europe, along with most of Europe’s distribution majors.

I do not recommend any wheelie on a Buell. It is really hard on the Rear shock and the front fork neck bearings! I like to check my neck bearing’s at the 2500 mile service interveral’s. I have replaced alot of these and its usually do to abusive riding. Also the rear shock front mount bolts to the engine case. Lots of stress when you beat on the bike.
