Accident Scene Management (ASMI) Training comes to California!!!!– ASMI is a Non-profit organization dedicated to reducing injuries and fatalities to bikers through proper First Response at a crash scene. It is ASMI’s position that we shouldn’t need to wait for trained help to come to us but as bikers, we can start care right away! We are in a unique position because bikers often travel in groups making the most likely person to be at the scene of a motorcycle crash, another motorcyclist!
In 1996 Vicki Sanfelipo – RN/EMT, an avid biker, developed a class to teach her friends what to do if she crashed. Soon other people were requesting the class in her home state of Wisconsin. Today, the ASMI organization has trained over 11,000 students and has instructors in 25 states. ASMI training is the only academic & duplicatable, motorcycle specific trauma training in the USA. “It’s not enough to just learn helmet removal and is even worse to think that CPR will save an injured biker”!
Sanfelipo and fellow instructor Trainer from Texas, Denise Carey, RN will be teaching classes in San Francisco November 15th and in Irvine at the MSF November 22nd. The Irvine class will also offer a 3 day opportunity to Nurses and EMTs who would like to become instructors of this intense one day class called “A Crash Course for the Motorcyclist”. Assisted through a NAMs grant and hosted by the Kings of Cali & the MSF the 7.5 hour class is only $55.00 which includes all course materials and a certificate of completion along with CEUs for nurses.
For classes and training in other areas of the country please visit our website at www.accidentscene.org –Vicki Roberts-Sanfelipo, RN/EMT Give to ASMI while you shop! It’s easy – www.iGive.com/ASMI Burly Bagger Bars —Custom baggers (in particular, bikes with Batwing fairings) require a custom bar, and Burly isn?t afraid of the challenge. Additional bends, compound curves and for the 2008 and newer models a fly-by-wire throttle system. All fairly daunting challenges, but not for a company that?s been committed to custom for the last 15 years. Measuring in at an ideal 13? tall and 1 1/4? around, the Burly Bagger Bars just crest the fairing, taper smoothly into the hand controls and are dimpled and drilled for internal wiring. CNC bent curves snake around gauges and avoid interfering with speakers or fairing mounted mirrors, all the while offering the optimum in style and rider comfort. Check out the Burly web site or contact your local dealer to get a set and look for additional products to join our already proven line in the very near future. — David Zemla BIKER’S CHOICE COMES TO BIKERNET–We’re proud to be working with Biker’s Choice.

Daley of Chicago announced a dramatic plan to drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions, in an effort to stop global warming and become one of the greenest cities in the nation. As the Associated Press reported: “The plan calls for reducing greenhouse gas emissions to three-fourths of 1990 levels by 2020 through more energy-efficient buildings, using clean and renewable energy sources improving transportation and reducing industrial pollution.””We can’t solve the world’s climate change problem in Chicago, but we can do our part,” said Mayor Daley. “We have a shared responsibility to protect our planet.” Visit chicagoclimateaction.org for details on the Chicago Climate Action Plan, and what residents and businesses can do to help. Zipper?s Big Bore Cylinders for Sportster & Buell–Zipper?s has developed new aluminum alloy cylinders for 883 and 1200 engines to increase the engine size a little or a lot! These cylinders are manufactured with high quality cast-in iron liners and will work in all types of performance applications. Bore sizes available are 3-9/16? (1250cc on the stock case), and 3-13/16? (88? with stock stroke, 99?, requires 4-5/16? stroker crankshaft). Can be fitted with your choice of several piston designs (see catalog or web site) to accommodate specific usages, or you can purchase these cylinders un-sized to fit your pistons. Includes design improvements for structural integrity, plus cooling fins have been increased to improve heat transfer. Note: Cylinders for XB9/12 models and 2004-up Sportsters have 1/4? more fin circumference to match the newer cylinder head fin configuration. Zip Tip- 3-13/16? is the largest bore size that the stock H-D XL cases can be safely bored for. 3-5/8? bore is the maximum S&S replacement XL/Buell cases can be bored for.

BOB DOWDY OF D&D PASSES–Dave Rash, President of D&D Performance Enterprises, broke the news that Bob Dowdy, D&D?s Mr. Everything, passed away at his home on Saturday, September 6, 2008. Bob was diagnosed with liver cancer 10 weeks earlier.
He was known for his uncommon wit, enthusiasm for life and the way he treated others. Bob always found a way to laugh and enjoy life.
?If you had a problem, Bob had an answer,? said Rash. ?When my wife was kidnapped, my very first call was to Bob. He told me what to do, I did it, and in 10 days my wife was rescued. He was one heck of a human being and I will miss him.?
On Saturday Bob was sitting between his wife and son. In the final moments he looked into Barbara?s eyes and said: ?I’m dying? and then placed his head on her shoulder and passed.He will be missed by all his friends, family and co-workers.
