Ok I remember xxspudxx the blonde guy...i dont remember anyones elses names...blonde chick who rides on the back of a Buell, short guy (sorry everyone is short to me) with big black goatee. Tall guy with beard....and some random guy with the 1125.

Still looking for the elusive Buell riding chick with the big tatoo on her back (TS) who is unfriendly to fellow Buellers...xxspudxx has witnessed this fem fatale as well.

Nice to meet you guys and gal.

Nice to meet you as well. The gas mask looked cool, glad I got to see one in person.

Hunter lurks around here, him and his girl were on the '04 12R. Random guy on the 1125 was random.

I usually stop by there on Thursdays for a short period of time.

What kind of cars are usually there ? Is it more exotics as opposed to hot rods/ muscle cars ?

GOduc
06-04-2011, 06:26 AM
A lot of muscle cars, some stangs and camaros. Went over there a few times with my friend who's got a Mach one.

06-04-2011, 08:21 AM
Just got back from the cars and coffee , man what an AWSOME site! Met some other forum members (finally) and saw tons of exotic cars. It's an awsome site and we should REALLY try to get a Buell group together and go to the show next time and represent ! Answered lots of questions about Buells and people were taking pics of our bikes.[up]

THEY SAY IT's on the first saturday of the month at Classic BMW.
It was great meeting you other forum members!

I'm definitely going next month. Gotta take my boys though, they saw all the video I took and their pretty pissed they didn't get to go. I'm telling ya, we need a big group of Buells to really make a scene there.

Wallsxb, send out a reminder next month. Maybe I'll ride in from Sherman. I've got a couple friends with Buells in Plano. I'll try to round them up.

06-06-2011, 10:08 AM
Yeah, there's not much here for sure. It doesn't bother me; I'm more of a smaller town kinda guy. It's probably changed a lot since you lived here. I moved here back in 03 and it's different than when it was then. The drivers here suck, but I do enjoy cruisin around the loop and down 82nd.

Lewisville, checking in.

Spotted an 1125CR on 635 right off of 121 this morning, was behind until the stop at Royal and Regent. Only the third or fourth Buell of any kind that I've seen on the road over the span of a year or so. Wish I could have been riding.

Also, anyone in the DFW area have some spare parts for an XB12S, or know anyone that might?

Recently purchased an 04 XB12S and live in Crowley. Just changed the primary oil and when I started it up the fuel pump didn't do the normal run then shut down prior to starting up. It just keeps running. I have read that the problem could be chaffed wires but I have never removed a fuel pump. Anyone have a suggestion for a good mechanic to have a look?

Ok I rode my STT for the first time since Oct. and on the way home from work LOW and BEHOLD a nice little STT pulls up on I35 next to me headed north in Lewisville...I let him pass so he could see me buell too. I wasn't sure he acknowledged me so I pull back up next to him and he just looked over and kept on rollin...almost reminded me of the mystery girl who showed no love on her Buell either in Lewisville headed north I told y'all about...is this coincidence?

Mad_Dax

The tank cover was white...I could be wrong about it being a STT but I think the rest was charcoal...the tail was chopped to look like a pickle fork LOL...He don't wanna get run from behind.

I am relatively new to Texas, and the heat. What does everyone use for tires? I bought an 04 XB12S last fall that has Conti's on it but the rear needs replaced. With the summer heat coming I was wondering how hard it is on tires and if anyone had suggestions for tires. Mostly use it for commuting with more aggressive weekend rides.
