I know I have asked this before, but there should be a few more of us out there. Especially since I sold my last 2 Buells to people in the area, and I saw another get sold at Dillons Harley on Friday!

Do you guys ever go down to Quaker Stake and Lube in CB, IA? Wednesday nights they have a big bike night where lots of people with bikes get together and hang out then go for rides? I have never been but have been thinking about going down there? You guys interested?

Yes Blood, I go sometimes on Wed. Ussally just to eat and B.S. I also go on Thursdays for car night as well. I mostly go to FlashBacks off of 84th and Center on Wednesdays though. They have cars and bikes and its not as far from my house. I have PM'd a few of the other riders in Omaha and they seem down for getting together as well. Have to try and round people up one of these days and represent for Buell!

buellblood
04-07-2011, 01:18 PM
I think it would be a pretty good time if we could get some Buells down at Quaker. I am up for anything. Anytime you are looking to get together PM me. I am on here everyday! This Sat. might be a good day to do a little riding or meet up.

wolfo68
04-07-2011, 01:25 PM
been to quaker once, the food didn't impress me and I haven't had a reason to go back yet

buellblood
04-07-2011, 01:45 PM
I can think of two reasons to go back, me and bonechip67!

wolfo68
04-07-2011, 04:20 PM
I'd be up for sat, I've got my daughter in the morning so the rest of my weekend is free

buellblood
04-07-2011, 06:55 PM
Lets look at a sat. later afternoon ride then. Sounds good? You guys have any good rides you know of around the area? I don't know too many myself.

wolfo68
04-07-2011, 07:34 PM
back roads from glenwood to cb, that's what I'll be taking up, I've got a good 60 mile drive to get up there,

we're also lookin at 80's but thunderstorm possibilities on sat, I'm cool with it as long as I don't get anymore of that damn hail

bonechip67
04-07-2011, 08:46 PM
I sent a PM to 09CR, Supermanrider & 2nasty8 to see if they are down. I dont think i have anything going on so whenever should work for me. Looks like I let out Java so I will PM him now.

bonechip67
04-07-2011, 08:50 PM
Anyone else who wants to meet up is more than welcome!

wolfo68
04-07-2011, 09:56 PM
not sure who the guy is, but there's a guy with a blue lightning that goes to creighton, I'll leave him a note or somethin and see if he responds

buellblood
04-08-2011, 09:07 AM
Sweet guys. I am not sure if I am going to be able to make it now. I had a friend as me if I wanted to make some extra cash so I might be busy. I will let you know tonight

RedWhiteandBuell
04-08-2011, 09:24 AM
I got your PM bonechip. Sorry I never responded, I've been busy with finishing up this term of school, work, getting back into shape, and trying to start a new business. I haven't even been on any of the forums for either of my bikes all winter.

I don't know when I'm going to get either of my toys out of the garage. They are both due for scheduled servicing and I don't have the money or the time right now to get them out to Dillon Bros. School is done the first week of May. After that things should settle down a little for me. I definitely want to get out and ride with you guys this summer though! I haven't been to Quaker Steak even to eat yet so I want to get out there a few times too!

I don't know how Flashbacks is on bike nights but the girlfriend and I went in there a one night and I was not impressed with the crowd at all. Place kind of creeped me out actually.

wolfo68
04-08-2011, 10:21 AM
redwhiteandbuell- where you goin to school?

bonechip67
04-08-2011, 10:56 AM
Its ok RWB.. I know how that is. My plates are due on my bike but the damn IRS just took my savings!

I dont mind Quaker, but the 2 times I went it was mainly Harley guys and their garage jewelry. That was ok when I had my custom.. but that was awhile ago. Not sure how it will be now. There maybe alot more of the OTHER guys there now.. We will definitely have to check it out!

The only thing I liked about FB is that you get to look at cars as well. Being that I love anything with wheels... But, if they aren't your thing, I can totally understand.

RedWhiteandBuell
04-08-2011, 11:48 AM
I also like almost anything with wheels! I rode through Flashbacks one Wednesday night last summer and saw that there was a lot of people there (cars/bikes). I just rode through though and didn't stop, but I did like seeing everyone's toys out there. Maybe it is a different crowd on bike nights. The night we went in the bar was just a regular night on the weekend and we went in and had a few beers and there were a lot of trashy and sketchy people in there.

Up on 84th street in the Brewskys/Spaghetti Works parking lot I always see cars/bikes out there during the summer. I can't remember what night it is but I always see the cars driving down there on my way home from lifting at 24 Hour Fitness. Then I pass that parking lot and start drooling. :p


redwhiteandbuell- where you goin to school?
I go to school at UNO.

bonechip67
04-08-2011, 01:14 PM
If I can remember right its Wednesdays that they have cars there. I take my 56 there sometimes as well as FB's. on Thursdays. I think a place called Justyntyme sponsors it there in the Spaghetti works plaza.

Yes, there are a few shady bikers at FB's, but on car night they have bikes as well and those people are ussally pretty decent.

04-08-2011, 06:54 PM
Hey guys, I work nights so don't ever really get to go to any of the car/bike nights around town. I will hopefully be good for a ride tomorrow in the afternoon though. as long as nothing comes up.

buellblood
04-08-2011, 08:02 PM
So what time is everyone meeting tomorrow afternoon for the ride and where will we be meeting? How long will the ride be?

wolfo68
04-08-2011, 08:40 PM

wolfo68
04-09-2011, 01:09 PM

wolfo68
04-09-2011, 01:24 PM
That's cool I'm just not seeing anyone else

buellblood
04-09-2011, 03:03 PM
Hey guys. Sorry I wasn't able to make it. I thought I would be done with yard wok by three, but I wasn't. Next time I wont allow anything to get in the way!

wolfo68
04-09-2011, 03:06 PM

Javakilla

bonechip67
04-20-2011, 06:19 PM

09CRRED1
04-26-2011, 12:50 AM
Anybody up for this Wednesday if it clears up? I'd be down to go to Quaker steak bike night. If people don't want to eat there we can find someplace else to eat and do what ever

buellblood
04-26-2011, 07:56 AM
I would be down if it clears up a little. Let me know whats up!

wolfo68
04-26-2011, 09:51 AM
I probably won't wed but I did ride in yesterday and it wasn't bad, a tad wet on the way back, but it was still relaxing

Javakilla
04-26-2011, 09:58 AM

I always take glenwood off of 34 to get up to omaha, the curves aren't much but those are like the best around this area anyway

Javakilla
04-27-2011, 09:46 AM
I actually took ,"Veteran memorial hwy" to "Wabash Ave" to "221st street" to glenwood,never even knew the name of the roads,it's how I use to drive to council bluffs and home when I first turned 16 :)

Lots of fun back roads that way.. I'm thinking about doing it again tonight suppose to be warmer, may stop by the quaker steak and lube thing on the way back.

09CRRED1

Hey guys,

I traded a guy my stock pipe for his Jardine and I will be putting it on this week. Do any of you know how to do a TPS Reset on an 03XB9R or have the spy cable and software to do it?

bonechip67
05-09-2011, 10:50 AM
Sorry, I dont have the stuff to do that on the older ones. Im not sure if you have to remap it or not. Somone on here surely has done it though..

wolfo68
05-09-2011, 11:52 AM
I have the cable and I can give you ecm spy

buellblood
05-09-2011, 05:59 PM
Wolfo that would b awesome! Have you ever done it before? If you have would you want to give me a hand with it? I haven't, but I can just do it following the DIY Video on the forum.

wolfo68
05-09-2011, 09:29 PM
I did it to mine over the winter, and I could give you some help depending on when you're available otherwise just follow the vids and I'll give you the stuff to use, I'm havin some issues with my bike at the moment, some *ssh*le decided they were going to roll it out of my parking spot and dump it.. I came out of work to find it tipped over, my left peg is broken and one of my blinkers broke, then it started surging and stalled on the interstate.. then as I'm pulling into town after I finally got it going it dies again and when I started it back up it sounds like something is hitting somewhere on the front cylinder...grrr

buellblood
05-10-2011, 07:50 AM
Oh man that really sucks. Let me know if there is something I can give you a hand with. Again, I am not the most mechanically inclined person, but I can turn a wrench or be an extra set of hands if needed.

wolfo68
05-10-2011, 07:56 AM
it looks like I'll either have to replace the crank or my piston rod has some play and I'll have to do more extensive work, I'm hoping if it's either of these I'll have to do the first, but I've still got hope that maybe it's the primary tension but whatever it is the bolt is down for a while and I might have to just tool around on the blast lol

buellblood
05-28-2011, 07:16 PM
Hey guys, its a really nice night out, anyone looking to take a small ride or meet up for a beer near old market? Hit me up on here in the next like 20 minutes.

buellblood

buellblood or redwhiteandbuell, which one of you did I see lol, blue xb R I tried following you that's why I pulled to that first turn at uno. then my bike started going all freaky on me and I had to work my magic to get it running well enough so I could get back to work

buellblood
07-08-2011, 03:08 PM
It wasn't me. I don't make it down there very often. I have to be honest, there are a 3 or 4 buells around town that I don't think are on here. I pass one quite often in the morning. It is a black and red firebolt and he is always heading east on Fort around 8:15-8:25am. I don't know who he is.

buellblood
07-08-2011, 03:16 PM
Anyone Interested in riding tomorrow if the weather works out?

wolfo68
07-08-2011, 04:27 PM
Id be interested in finding that firebolt. I don't think ill make it though I've gote a night witg a great girl tonight and I'm not sure when ill wind up leaving and since my bike is acting up again I want to take a few things off and I need to remember to put my damn scoops back on

wolfo68

wolfo68
02-26-2012, 10:20 AM
I was there last night lol, We've tried to get together a few times and we don't seem to actually be able to get everyone together. I'm down when we decide on a time though. Probably going to have to wait til it's warmer though

BuellyBagger
02-26-2012, 03:40 PM
yeah i keep wantin to get my bike out, but i gotta squeze it outa the basement door (its like 32") and im not even positive that its goin to run so i just keep wainting until its stays nice for awhile and i leave it out in the shed after iget it out of the basement. This weather keeps teezing me though[mad]

Hey everyone, I'm the guy who purchased the Cherry bomb red XB12S lightning from Dillon brothers last May. I'm currently living in Lincoln, NE but would love to go on a ride with some fellow Buellers. PM me if you wanna get a group together. I know Twin Peaks are going to start having bike nights on Thursday's :)

1badtitan90
05-23-2012, 02:00 PM

wolfo68
05-23-2012, 02:12 PM
it's supposed to storm later, if I get mine all back together I'm gonna head over for a bit, probably not too long though.
