Fischer and Motoczysz have been trying to get to market for years. I hope they succeed.

I really just posted that for the color. I though 09's were available in gray and orange. I seriously thought about buying one.

When I bought my 919 it had a brand new DQ on the rear. I've never had tire slip so much in my life. It consistently broke loose under 'moderate' braking. I even swapped out the rear shock to make sure it wasn't a suspension issue. I'll never ride a DQ again. I equate Dunlop tires to Fram filters. Available everywhere even though the performance is a step below most others.

Check the site, they say 1 day shipping to Ohio.

The rain really wasn't that bad except for about 10 minutes where it looked like we picked the wrong day to ride. We kept the pace appropriate for the road conditions. As long as you're moving you dry up pretty quickly.

Nice bike, but it'll be hard to sell it for more than MSRP.

I've ridden 536 quite a few times. Honestly, it's not one of my favorites. It's was in good shape. I don't recall any gravel or debris, but it does have those annoying 'speed bumps' before some of the curves.

The morning started OK, but as we got closer to Millersburg we hit rain and got pretty soggy. Just after Doomking split off we met Big Speasy at a gas station in Millersburg. It was raining pretty heavily and we debated calling it a day. After a quick radar check and some weather recon from a guy on a cruiser we decided to press on. About 5 miles past Millersburg the rain stopped. We kept the pace pretty mild until we made it to dry roads. The 2nd half of the day was MUCH better, the sun came out and we picked up the pace for 26, 536, & 255. Then we REALLY picked up the pace on 800 as we headed back North. Despite the iffy start it wound up being a good day of riding. I finished with a little over 450 miles for the day.

I'll be heading out shortly.

If the weather cooperates, I'll be there in the morning.

+1 Understanding suspension setup is...ummm...beneficial for sportriding. http://www.sportrider.com/tech/146_0006_susp/index.html

I was planning to ride into WV on Sunday with at least 1 other guy. Our route home from Marrietta is pretty much the same as what you mentioned...26, 800, etc. Perhaps we can meet for the return trip. btw, I would say skip 536. not really that much fun.

How is that southern stretch of 83? I haven't ridden it in about 2 years, it wasn't in very good shape back then. The 1st 15 miles of 26 out of Marietta is recently repaved and very nice.

There were adds with the Blast cube in a few motorcycle rags. Seemed like they were setting the stage for new model to replace the Blast...but the 2010 models are on Buell's website as of yesterday with nothing new to be found. If there isn't a replacement, that is an interesting way to announce that a model is being discontinued.

I couldn't make it due to family stuff. I'll be riding to WV this Sat or Sun depending on weather.
