    New S3T owner

    I'll see if I can remember to take a picture of that part installed tonight.

    Commuter Buells

    I commute daily about 80 miles RT. Half mountain twisties, half highway. I have been riding my 09 Firebolt most of the time, but my 2000 S3T is way more comfortable. Once I finish all of the maintenance on the S3T I will probably ride it more. I just need to replace the exhaust hanger bolt...

    New S3T owner

    The rear brake on my S3T is good for minor slowdowns. I've changed the pads several times and the rotor once, not much improvement. There is a tutorial for fixing the side bags either here or on BadWeb. I'm going to fix mine later this summer. Enjoy the ride!

    What did you do for your Buell today?

    ;) Couldn't be happier. My highly talented mechanic is jealous and wants a couple new rotors... I did everything but the tire replacement and bearings. Easy Peasy. Also gave me a chance to cleanup those dirty bits I could not reach with the wheels and skins on. Not a full cleaning as I ran...

    What did you do for your Buell today?

    New tires, (used almost every inch of the old ones), new bearings, new rotor, front and rear pads. I decided to try the Diablo Corsa's instead of my favorite Conti-Sport-Attacks Once I break in the Diablo's, I'll add my comments. Might be a week or so, since I am being paranoid about...

    "they also have a fix it kit if it breaks" Only thing I've had to fix (besides my oil lines) on my 09 Firebolt to date...

    What else do you have in your Garage?

    Got to run 12 laps on Sonoma in an S5. Took my S3, but no bikes on the track that day. I also got to ride passenger in an R8 for 10 laps... One day I'll get to run 2 wheels there...

    Slot Cars

    HO Slot cars... When I lived in Colorado many moons ago, several of the bars in the Boulder, Longmont, Louisville area hosted race night different nights of the week. I went to one, won a couple of races and when I found out there was free food and drinks involved I demolished everyone that...

    Dyno Pull with drag pipes on the Fuller Motus custom streetfighter

    It's funny. That bike got the most attention when I was there. Then the custom McClaren and amazingly enough my XB12R. The Motus sounded best though.

    Dyno Pull with drag pipes on the Fuller Motus custom streetfighter

    As seen at Alice's in the Santa Cruz Mountains: Sounds even better in person.

    Erik Buell launches electric motorbike brand

    Yes. We do care. Unless you are an 8 year old Asian girl. :applause:

    What else do you have in your Garage?

    Subaru was getting close to 100k miles, so it was time to move on. The wife picked up this 2019 Tacoma OffRoad. Manual with Leather! Last one in the state until April.

    Buell Engines 2009

    I was never in charge of any of the PDP-11's, but backed up the main guy in case he needed help. I worked at Amoco Production in Denver when the first of the PDP-11's got delivered. When they rolled the crate into our data center it looked like someone dropped it from a helicopter. When we...

    Buell Engines 2009

    McDonnell Douglas brought Demming in to try and turn the company around. The union fought most of the changes which ended with them being sold to Boeing.

    Buell Engines 2009

    Loved the PDP-11. Hate Compaq and HP for essentially destroying what was left of DEC. During the opening ceremony when the name was changed from Compaq to HP pavilion, Fiorina got booed by most of the fans in attendance. Geeks the lot of us!

    What other skills do you have?

    My adopted dad taught me that if you want to succeed in life be the very best (insert job here), or learn many things and you'll never go hungry. I've only been hungry a few times in my life. Plus it turns on the SO to see me in a tool belt... I'm also a bit ADD. Can't sit still for a minute...

    What other skills do you have?

    I am a computer geek because I can make more money than construction or the trades with less effort (for me at least). The logical side of me took to electronics, then computers quickly. I can fix just about any computer or electronic device (for the more complicated stuff I need a schematic)...

    Biker/Motorcyclist discrimination, any stories?

    I was riding my sportster on HWY 85 many many years ago when I saw an old lady trying to figure out what to do about her flat tire. I pulled over to help and she ran and jumped in her car. She cracked the window when I approached and she looked really scared, so I removed my leather jacket and...

    H-D sure is taking a beating...

    I think they will be around for a long time. Longer than me most likely. They do need to be more adaptable to attracting a younger customer base and still toe the line with dedicated fans. Something that will be challenging. They probably need some outside PR help to understand how to...
