Buell Named Official Pace and Safety Bikes of AMA Pro Road Racing–Specially Outfitted Ulysses and 1125Rs Will Pace All Classes at AMA Pro Races.

EAST TROY, Wis. (June 2, 2009) Buell Motorcycle Company and AMA Pro Racing today announced a multi-year partnership that will see Buell provide the Official Pace and Safety Bikes of AMA Pro Road Racing. As part of this unique agreement, specially outfitted Buell Ulysses and 1125R motorcycles will pace the opening laps of each AMA Pro Road Racing event and be used during caution periods for all AMA Pro Road Racing classes.

Beginning with the Honda Super Cycle Weekend presented by Dunlop Tires at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, July 17-19, a specially outfitted Buell XB12XP motorcycle (the police version of the adventure sport XB12X Ulysses) will lead the field off the grid for pre-race warm-up laps and during caution periods. In addition, a pair of 1125R motorcycles will serve as chase bikes during caution periods to bring the race leaders forward to meet the pace bike and regroup the field.

?We are excited that the opportunity was available to support AMA Pro Road Racing by bringing pace and safety motorcycles into the series,? said Erik Buell, Chairman and Chief Technical Officer of Buell Motorcycle Company. ?AMA Pro Road Racing has been great to work with, and we were pleased to see how much they wanted to respond to the riders? needs with a program that would further enhance the quality of AMA Pro Road Racing events.?

?This new partnership with AMA Pro Road Racing just puts the official stamp on what has already been a great relationship between Buell and our organization in Daytona Beach,? said AMA Pro Racing President Roger Edmondson. ?Buell has made motorcycle racing history in AMA Pro competition the last few seasons and now we will see this same passion and commitment to excellence extend into the promotional arena. We welcome Buell to the AMA Pro Road Racing family of partners.?

The fleet of track-prepared bikes will be ridden by riders selected by AMA Pro Road Racing and will be maintained and transported by Buell in a uniquely configured display trailer. Details of the on-track procedures are being developed by AMA Pro Road Racing and will be announced and discussed with riders during this weekend?s AMA Pro Superbike Doubleheader event at Road America.

?It is important to Buell and AMA Pro Road Racing that we take the time to work with our competitors in developing a full understanding of this new program,? said AMA Pro Racing Vice President of Marketing and Communications Ollie Dean. ?The pace and safety bike initiatives are designed to provide a better competition experience for the teams, riders and, of course, the fans. We will spend the coming weeks in advance of the Mid-Ohio race educating all involved on these programs and the end result will be a better event experience for everyone.?

BIKERNET READER EXHAUST TESTING STUDY–It-s cammed [Comp.] and carb work , I cut the stock exhaust up and reinforced it and turned it into a 2 into 1 , that is a thrown away Screaming Eagle muffler has a dent [what the fuck]. I was running a hollowed out stock muffler and it ran like a beast but about 35 MPG. I lost a little with the restriction, but it will flat get it for an 80-inch Hog and about 40 MPG on these great back roads.

All the best to u and yours brother, just wanted to recognize a man who treated me with class in an age that lacks it desperately. By the way the wrap keeps the heat off. I have ridden mid 90s even stopped the difference is huge.rubber down paint up

RECESSION OR DEPRESSION,DANCES WITH FILMS IS NOT DOWNSIZING–THE FESTIVAL THAT?S BEEN BREAKING THE RULESFOR A DOZEN YEARS OPENS ON JUNE 4TH–WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA (June 2, 2009) ? As many film festivals close their doors, Dances With Films continues to expand as the demand for their truly independent brand surges. Taking place June 4th through 11th at the Laemmle?s Sunset 5 in West Hollywood, the festival will screen nearly 100 films (features, shorts, docs and music videos) from as far away as Australia, Italy and UK to films from local talent outshining many of the films in theaters today.

The industry ?Meet the Filmmakers? cocktail party will be held, June 4, 2009 at Guys and Dolls, located on Beverly Boulevard next to Jerry?s Deli in West Hollywood for industry, press and Dances With Films filmmakers and alumni.

Festival rules require that all competition films have no ?known? actors, directors, writers or producers, however as alumni advance in their careers and, to ?break? our own rules – an ?Alumni Spotlight? section of the festival has been created to continue the support of the DWF community. This year, DWF will spotlight the documentary, MYTHIC JOURNEYS by alums Stephen and Whitney Boe with the voice talents of Tim Curry, Mark Hamill and Lance Hendrickson; the comical short film, COWBOY DREAMS, featuring Bill Engvall and Danny Trejo from alum Paul DeNigris and BEING MICHAEL MADSEN, starring Michael Madsen, Virginia Madsen, with a host of cameos from Harry Dean Stanton to Darryl Hannah, from alum Michael Mongillo. The Spotlight Finale film will be political thriller, THE DIVIDED starring Jeremy London by alum Bennett Stein.

?Since the beginning, Dances With Films has been about building a community of filmmakers who understand the pain and elation of what each have gone through to finish their respective films. We?re proud when we say many of our filmmakers stay in touch with each other long after the festival ends and for many years later,? says Michael Trent, Co- Founder. With an expected attendance of nearly 8,000 audience participants and a 98% filmmaker attendance record, DWF expects the question and answer sessions with the film creators to be lively.

RAL-Overview copy

SPRING COLORS FROM WILBERS SHOCKS– Today we write you this email to inform you about another option to individualize Wilbers shocks! Many of our clients are not aware of the fact that Wilbers shock absorbers can be ordered in various spring colours.

Clients often have special requests about how their shock absorber should look like and therefore in addition to the standard blue spring (Blue-line) and the black spring (Black-line) our customers now have the option to pick their spring colour out of a huge array of RAL-colours. We added a file with all possible RAL numbers as attachment so that you know which colours are available!

To warranty corrosion protection the surface of a plastic coated spring is carefully abraded and afterwards lacquered with the desired colour.

Delivery time for lacquered shocks is increased for a couple of days and we offer this special service at a fixed price of 25 Euro net per spring. The new spring colours can be ordered with every Wilbers Racing Suspension shock besides the Eco-line at our US importers given the correct RAL number.

With kind regards from Germany,
–Your Wilbers Team

THE REDHEADED SEAT MAKER SUPPORTS PEARLS OF HONOR–I recently met a gentleman by the name of Dana Harbaugh, www.pearlsofhonor.com. He was pointed in my direction by the guys at Chrome Fusion, here in Las Vegas.

He has spent a great deal of time with the survivors of Pearl Harbor, and has put together a book of photographs to portray their vigilance in keeping the memories of the event, the casualties, the heroes, and the survivors of pearl Harbor alive. The book’s title is Pearls of Honor. It shows the remaining survivors in their roles as reminders of America’s vulnerability on Dec. 7, 1941. They strive to ensure it never happens again.

Dana was recently in San Diego, where John Finn, the oldest living Medal of Honor recipient, added his signature, next to his picture and his Medal of Honor, on the gas tank. Once Dana comes back to Vegas, the signature will be engraved by Sandy over at Chrome Fusion , who did all the wonderful Chrome Work on the tank and fenders.
