If you see you name and you have not sent me your picture you are wrong. I MUST have your picture. Also this list is not in the months order and I had to be the tie breaker for some. On top of that some of the people who had the most votes did not win said month, or else we would have a calendar of 7 pictures. The calendar layout will be pretty much the same as last year in case you were wondering. I think it was BuellXB themed nicely and have had zero complaints on the look.

Also please thank our sponsors, they are great and XBlights has donated extra money to help bring cost down for you guys!

Any questions or concerns let me know!

[50dro]

Well crap I didn't make it! :(

Good group of pics though. Thanks for putting the work in Loki! [up] Looking forward to seeing the final product.

[DrogeN Omen]

sweet.

How much for shipping to NZ???

[Bello]

Woooo hoooo!!! I'm absolutely excited. Thanks to everyone with a special thanks to loki and our sponsors. I cant wait to have this hanging on my wall.

[gtp3800]

Shipping is included. ...

I am excited to add this to my garage and keep reminding myself to get some good shots so I can be in next years!

[Enemy Zero]

Congratulations to all the winners! I'll be looking forward to seeing how the final layout looks.

[ali]

Thanks for the vote guys! [up]

[rah7777777]

I would imagine USA shipping is included, but overseas would be extra.

[Big twin]

Whaaat ? How did you count the votes ??? That's got to be wrong ! 50dro and I have like the double of what TCS and John422 have . Something we don't know about counting votes ?

[djs2k2]

The votes were counted by month not number [up]

[50dro]

50dro and I have like the double of what TCS and John422 have .

Someone must have something against red/gold Lightning! ;) j/k

It was counted by month not raw total votes as described in the original post. I have a feeling that you're not the only one that missed that...

[Big twin]

Well I don't think it represents how popular some pictures were compared to others .... Very disappointed

[noone1569]

Awesome!

[snrusnak]

congrats to the winners. [up]

[Loki]

Votes were by month, I said in the instructions to vote for your favorite picture for each month. There was no favorites played but if there was a tie I did look to see which photo would be more appropriate for that month, remember I did not vote so just count that as my vote ;). I stressed to everyone this year to read the rules. If you are unhappy with how the results came out you should have campaigned to get more votes and got more forum participation.

For example, 50dro and ham had the same votes for jan but jan is a colder month and ham's picture goes well with that month do to the blue color. But I also have not received his picture so 50dro would take his place in that case.
If you feel counting was in error go ahead and count. Remember, only one person can win a month, it has to be the most votes or the best rep for that month in case of a tie. Another example of that is Boss technically wouldve won nov with his 5 votes but he also had the most votes in aug (only 4 though) since his picture is dragging knee it makes more since to have it in a month that you would still go to the track.

If you want me to email you the votes just let me know.

[snrusnak]

No matter what happens there's always someone to bitch. Thanks for all the time you put in to this Loki. I struggled to make time to get my votes in, I don't know how you make time for this, then have people bitching at you on top of it lol.

You could probably give everyone in this thread $10 and someone would complain that they got screwed.

[1badtitan90]

Guess I didn't understand the rules either... bummer. Fail

[EricZ]

Sweet!

Loki, did you get my picture?

[Big twin]

No matter what happens there's always someone to bitch.

Sorry but I did'nt bitch against Loki or anything else for that matter. I just expressed what I was thinking and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks like that . That being said, bravo to all the winners !

Sorry wouldn't let me add until now

[vtech007]

I think it's cool that pics of bikes that are not XB models can be considered for voting, and even win, spots on an XB calendar. [smirk]

[Loki]

Yes Ericz i got your picture so you are good.
I'm sorry that so many didnt understand how to vote this year, I guess I wasn't clear enough and I take responsibility.

In any case the pictures chosen are good pictures and this will still be a very good calendar, it is better then last year even. It will include user submitted quotes (not all but 12 of them) and even a last page of all the photos submitted (as long as I get the picture in email, [email protected], include forum name). So look on the bright side and enjoy a new calendar made by the buellers for the buellers!!

[FlaXB9R]

Any intrest in this pic being added somewhere? It is all buellers at the dragon vi buell event. A good percent of the winners are in this picture.

Just a thought. No hard feelings either way.

Thanks for everything your doing Loki

[Big twin]

Thanks for everything your doing Loki

[up]

[GAXB9R]

I like the idea of the group pic in the calendar. Man I miss it more everyday. I still have the shadow, but the buell is always held close. Cool pic Flax.

[Loki]

I could probably put it in there if someone emails me the picture.

[djs2k2]

Did we get enough good quotes?

[egobuster1]

i sent payment for mine!!

[Loki]

I got your payment.

[crash]

Payment sent- Thanks for the time you've spent putting this together!
I think the group picture would be a great addition!

[djs2k2]

Im putting one in every room of the house, you never get tired of looking at buell their like boobs everyone is unique!:D

[FlaXB9R]

Payment sent as friend/family
Added address in message.

[djs2k2]

[augustus_01]

Payment sent!

[Alien]

I especially like the pic of the Uly... Oh, wait.

[oh9bolt]

Atleast you voted to try and change the outcome...

[Big twin]

Atleast you voted to try and change the outcome...

Lol

[Bossanova]

Payment sent. Thanks Loki for handling all this. I sent my photo via email so please confirm you got it.

These calendars make good xmas presents for your mechanic, shop or friend that helps you wrench. So get off your cheap asses and buy a couple extra. Also, speaking of cheap asses, when you pay on Paypal, select the option that says "I'm sending money to family or friends" so Loki isn't stuck with the fees. This is the second year he has volunteered to manage this and as you can see it's a lot of work.

[50dro]

BUMP!!!! [cool]

[noone1569]

$$ Sent for 2x!

[d_adams]

This is the second year he has volunteered to manage this and as you can see it's a lot of work.

[up][up][up]

[Loki]

Got your payment noone1569.

Thank you for the kind words guys, lets spread the words and maybe a sponsor can talk about this on their facebook page?

I should have the calendar completed by tonight. We need to get more orders in! We only have 18 paid for so far! Come on guys, this will be a good calendar!

I also need more of the submitted pictures!

[50dro]

maybe a sponsor can talk about this on their facebook page?

I can do that! :D

[50dro]

Need to find way to pay with card, need five calendars.

You can pay via credit card through PayPal as a guest without having a PayPal account...Well...at least you can when you buy through our site so I would assume this would be the same?

[Loki]

Yes, 50 is right, sign up with a paypal account and you can pay with card.

Got the payment eric and big!

[John422]

[Loki]

Come friday-saturday, I will place the order so please have your payments to me by then since this year extras will not be bought!

Thanks everyone!

[djs2k2]

[up]

[zuumn]

Great job taking care of all this! Put me down for 1 calendar and I will paypal payment to you tomorrow from work!!

[rah7777777]

Thanks for all your hard work Loki!!!

I know doing all this can be a pain in the ass. We appreciate all your efforts and time!!

[Loki]

Got the order in guys. Tomorrow is still the deadline to get your order in.

The biggest pain in the ass this year was getting color right on one of the borders, hard to explain but I printed 30 copies trying to get it perfect. I want you guys to have a professional looking calendar that you will find in stores.

[noone1569]

Thanks for doing all the hard work Loki!

[Loki]

No problem. Just want to say that I am very proud of this years calendar and all the improvements to it vs. last years. There a few key differences that I hope some of you who compare the two or pay close attention to detail will like. I spent all day refining a few things and I know the turnout will be great.

We now have to wait 10-15 days for the calendars to come in and as long as they come in as they should you guys will have them withing another week of that. so look for 3 weeks from today to have your calendars. I will keep you updated!

:D

[djs2k2]

Hey did we get enough quotes in for the new calendar? Thanks Loki, also did you receive my payment for the five I ordered?

[Loki]

Yes and Yes, somewhere.

[zuumn]

Loki, payment sent. Forgot to include screen name with payment. PM sent.

[Loki]

Just as an update for everyone

The calendars should be in on the 11th. I have finals this week but I still hope to have them all shipped out by the end of the week. So everyone should hope to have their calendars by the end of next week!

[Bullettooth023]

I have finals this week

it's that wonderful time of year [down]

[ali]

Sweet thank you!!! and good luck on your finals

[djs2k2]

Good Luck Loki. I'm dieing for my calendars.[up]

[djs2k2]

O yeah, the answer to number 27 is B:p

[Loki]

Ok guys, got some of the calendars loaded up and ready to ship while Im waiting on a few of the other ones to be fixed.

However, some members were either being forgetful or simply didn't read directions....

I need addresses from:

Allan McHenry
Eric Ziegler
Susan Harter
Stephane Archambault

I will not hunt you guys down, please EMAIL me your address at [email protected]. I will continue to hold your calendar until I get your address so there is nothing to worry about, you are just delaying you receiving them.

Everyone else, expect your calendars by next week and if there is anything wrong with your orders please tell me so I can figure out what went wrong and how to fix it.

Thank you.

[Loki]

Ok I have gotten an address from Susan Harter(John) and Stephane Archambault.

I still need addresses from:

Allan McHenry
Eric Ziegler

[EricZ]

Sent!

[Loki]

I still need addresses from:

Allan McHenry

[Bossanova]

You have an email now Loki with my address.

Thanks-

[Loki]

I have everyones mailing address and will have them packed up tomorrow and shipped out sunday!

[Loki]

Alright guys. I will be dropping off the calendars today. There is one problem though, I was shorted some calendars so three of you will have to wait to get them. I called today to see if they fixed the mistake but they are saying all the printers are down and will be back up tues-weds. Sorry for the trouble guys.

Dean,
Matt Stevenson,
Stephane from Canada.

You guys are the three that will get yours late.

Everyone else please let me know if you run into any problems with the calendars!

[Bossanova]

Loki- If you haven't dropped them in the mail yet, you can use my order to send to these guys if that will help. I won't be home for a while..

[Loki]

Sorry Boss, I dropped them off before I posted that.

[zuumn]

Got mine today! Awesome job Loki!![up]

[djs2k2]

Got mine today thanks for your time and awesome high quality calendar Loki.

[rah7777777]

Got em!!
Knock out job Loki!!

Thanks for all your efforts!!!

I don't care for my XB Lights banner too much, but that is 110% due to my complete lack of creativity and horrible artistic abilities! Haha

[50dro]

Pics or it didn't happen! LOL

Now I can't wait to get home and check the mail! LOL

How's my banner look?!?!?!? :p

[J20tD]

What do they look like this year?

[50dro]

Just got mine!!! Looks great Loki! [up] The last page worked out well too (so a few of us are in there a few times ;) ) Thanks again for taking on the task...

[Loki]

No problem guys! Hope you enjoy them!
This will probably be the last year I do it, next year I will be hopefully starting my new career and I wont have as much access to the calendars being made like I have the last two years.

[noone1569]

Got mine. Awesome! Thank you.

[ali]

Got my yesterday! As usually Loki you did an awesome job, thank you so much for doing this!

[gtp3800]

[up] looks great! thank you.

[noone1569]

Happy my banner came out pretty good. Dwarfed by 5-0 though =(

[EricZ]

Got mine today. Thanks Loki!

[Loki]

Yeah I made them all the same height as everyone else's. I couldnt scale yours any bigger without it looking funny compared to the others. Sorry.

[Bello]

Totally dig it. Thanks loki!

[noone1569]

Yeah I made them all the same height as everyone else's. I couldnt scale yours any bigger without it looking funny compared to the others. Sorry.

Oh no biggie, just blowning Sandro some crap!

I can't wait for march and all of my coworkers having to look at me living life epic!

[50dro]

Oh no biggie, just blowning Sandro some crap!

Haha! Double sponsor spot this year! ;) My calender will be on the rear cover all year so I can look at myself...I'm sooooo vain! LOL j/k

[rah7777777]

Just noticed the cover says "2013 BuellXB.com Calendar"

I think Loki was drinking too much egg nog HAHA

[Loki]

I dont have one in front of me but I just checked the file I have and you are right. I am so sorry guys, I dont know how that got past me. I also had my girlfriend, and the workers all proofread it to make sure there were no mistakes and no one noticed. I guess it just didnt cross our minds that it is for the next year.

I did check the months and the date and year are all correct so you still do have a 2014 calendar, just a mistyped cover. If this bothers anyone to no end, please PM me and we will try to work it out. What I can do open the cover file to you guys and give you the info on where to go to get it printed and what paper to get, etc. That way it will be in your hands faster, will only cost you under 2 bucks, and save shipping costs. I wish I could afford to reprint it all again but I can not, and I am sorry about that.

[noone1569]

#aintcare. Its never going to be on the cover anyway

[rah7777777]

**** no Loki.

If that bothers someone that much, they're probably the type of person who would never own a Buell but rather a chromed out Gixxer that just gets looked at versus ridden.....

[pur pony]

Haha... thats pretty fun... no biggy though. I still don't have mine yet, hoping soon!

[Loki]

Pony, PM me your name and I will look your package up for you. I have tracking numbers for every order.

[EricZ]

Ha! I knew there was something funny about the calendar cover:).

[pur pony]

PM sent loki... thx!!!

[Loki]

Everyone but Stephane Archambault has had their calendars shipped.

Stephane Archambault if you can get in contact with me I need a bit more information from you so I can safely send you your calendar.

[Bullettooth023]

Got mine yesterday. Awesome job loki!

[djs2k2]

My family pointed that out to me and I told them that was because the votes took place in 2013, that's why its on the cover. And 2014 inside the calendar.

[Loki]

Lol thats a brilliant way to look at it!

[djs2k2]

Got you covered they think your genius! [up]:D

[Sirius815]

Sent you a PM Loki - not sure if you got it. No calender for me yet?! :(

[Loki]

I replied to your PM.

Also some of you who paid me through the "payment" option on paypal should be able to go back into your purchase history and see the tracking number, if not I can get it for you.

[Sirius815]

Ha - didn't even think to look! I called USPS and they've opened up a case for it.

[Bossanova]

got mine Loki- Thanks again, they look great.

[noone1569]

Best calendar month ever!

[d_adams]

So I changed mine today and noticed you need to tighten that strap on the exhaust. It looks a little loose. Cool pic though, running 2-up and dragging knees anyway.

[50dro]

haha! Was just telling Ryan about that on Facebook! Good eye Dean! [up]

[John422]

I was comparing my picture to my bike right now. My bike looks like crap compared to how it looks now it's funny. It looks so unrefined and just not near as good looking.

[noone1569]

So I changed mine today and noticed you need to tighten that strap on the exhaust. It looks a little loose. Cool pic though, running 2-up and dragging knees anyway.

Yeah, its actually about as tight as it can go, just is missing the rubber piece between the exhaust and strap. The Ti can is tiny bit smaller in diameter as well.

[d_adams]

You need one of these instead.

[Bello]

Speaking of this particular months photo, i like that both versions of the xb are included. The firebolt and lightning.

[noone1569]

I know, I do, Dean. Boy do I know I do. I just cant put any more cash in such an antiquated platform. I'll come to first for my rx/sx

[50dro]

such an antiquated platform

HEY!!! Stop being sooooo mean! [mad][mad][mad] ;)

Some of us like our "antiquation!" hahaha

[d_adams]

Yeah, I'm working on getting one myself. Local dealer isn't being a lot of help at this point though, they're saying late April _maybe_ before they get any 1190's in at all. I'm almost ready to travel to get one now.
