st louis area buell owners!

[d_adams]

Oddly enough, most of my neighbors are near retirement age and not one has complained about excessive noise until Friday night. Thanks Dave.


J/K. I've never had a complaint about the exhaust and I've made it a point to ask most of the close neighbors what they think. None of them ride bikes at all.

Looks like the route might change. Probably looking at running Wild Horse Creek road, St. Albans and back up 94 again. I'm not looking for a hot pace myself, might have some people running 2-up for this one.

Post up if you're going. Start time is still to be determined.

Well, we went, only 3 Buells and one Aprillia. 3 of the 4 bikes had exhaust systems built by yours truly. The 4th guy wants one made and it's for a Triumph 675.


Lunch break.

James, looking for bugs or something.

Kenny, the Aprillia guy.

I failed miserably on taking pics, didn't get one of the bikes at all. Vids are uploading, but it's about 7 GB worth so it will be a while. Except for getting trapped several times by cagers, it was a pretty decent run today.

[d_adams]

Whoops.


Dunno why I keep thinking that.

Car Show this weekend

 

[iman501]

hey guys i'm in the coast guard in TN. we have dock side maitenance scheduled in st luois for about 35 days starting around july 15th. i might have the option to bring the bike with me, but am a little unsure. would any of you be up for showing me some/any good roads if i end up bringing the bike?

or maybe another buell ride with a bunch of people?

 

[d_adams]

Sure, I'll be around. I know a few out this way, there's plenty of other places to go explore at as well. The river road on either side would be good, just use caution on the Illinois side around East Stl.

 

[Kid1620]

If I'm in town I'd be more then happy to show you some roads

 

[iman501]

Cool!, I'll also be pretty close to my patents house Peoria il) so itd be nice to be able to ride it home on a couple weekends.

 

[STL XB12Ss]

[iman501]

Finally have my bike up here!, anybody know of any good bike nights or up for any Riding?

 

[d_adams]
