    Meeting of the Minds stuff

    Hey all, please see the update for the Meeting of the Minds in the South Central rallies section... We have an opportunity to do some dyno testing for $25/ bike if there's enough interest... We need some input VERY soon so we can decide if we need to schedule this or not...

    MAJOR thanks to Da-Bubble for getting that arranged for us!

      I was going to get there late Friday but I’ll speed in up if you get the Dyno tests. I’ll do the $25 (normally wouldn’t run my XS up to red line that far from home but I’m sure John can help me fix anything I break). I’ll even pay to have Brent’s Harley tested (I need to have something I can beat).

        Hey Cool!

        Okay... I'll call the guy tomorrow and let him know we have a few people interested and see what he can do...

        See y'all soon!

          I know I need to get home soon when I start having strange motorcycle dreams. Some people get music stuck in their head, I have a WOT throttle take off from a red light playing over and over in my imagination.

            It's the Siren song of the road...

                Hey Kat,

                Just make sure that Da-Bubble makes sure that the Dyno Guy, or whoever gets to sit on the bikes and RUN them knows that these machines do NOT have a rev limiter, and need to watch the tachs closely to not go over 8.5K rpm!! Have fun!!

                PS, PM me about your TITLE!!!! or...I might just have to make one up myself!

                  Need some help here.... no no no... not the mental kind... well... that too...


                  Hey prometheus, it could go either way, but last I checked... I didn't see a bevy of human beauties in his garage... unless they were hiding behind the bikes...
