I'm sorry, but where will be a show in Milan at 9th 11th November?
Thanks in advance

Luigi. We will be at the Milan bike show for Friday 9th November to Sunday 11th November. We will be performing 3 shows every day. Hope to see you there. Thanks, Craig.

Hi Craig. I had the opportunity to see in Termoli at the 5th H.O.G. ITALIAN NATIONAL RALLY and I must say that there are no words to describe the emotions that I sent you. You are exceptional. I hope to be able to review soon in Italy. Hello

hi craig, you are the best to Termoli, Italy on thè 5' run Harley davidson.

To craig .... saw you at the essex bike run on the 16th sept great show when are you back in the uk?

Dave. You can see the calendar for other UK dates but much of my time is in other countries. However, many more academy dates will be for next year and as much UK event dates as possible. Thanks and see you somewhere soon. Craig.

Craig,
You mo f--ker; it's great to see that you are a superstar - deservedly so.
I will never forget the 70 mph, through-the-gears wheelie that you let me experience when you and Jono (Hare) came over to Ian Castle's house in Erdington, way back in 1989. We went up to Solihull; half the time on only one wheel of your GSXR 1100 I seem to recall. You probably don't remember - but I'll never forget.
I bought a Kawasaki 125 shortly afterwards and passed my test in sunny Brum. It's a Buell 1125R for me next; I'll stay on two two wheels, but I'll be smiling all the time knowing you only prefer one.
Well done for your outstanding achievements - what smiles you bring; sunshine through the spokes of a wheel.

Conrad.

hi Craig

Ronnie here from croix 2007,2 weeks ago I crashed with my bike and got stuck under a BIG steel vehicle,broke my foot at 2 places and damaged my both legs,they are yellow at the moment so I think they're getting better ;-)
to kill some time I bought your DVD....realy great,like it very much...also the part"what it takes" is very very good.
I forgot my pain for a while,so thank you.
good luck and say hello to Wing.
hope to see you next year.

regards Ronnie

Hi Craig, I don't know if you'll remember me, it's Martin Best, I did Track Attack Premier at Donington and was working with Harleyworld in Chesterfield.....we met a few times at various Buell events and also at Donington.

Are you stil involved with Buell? I see they are bringing out a new 1125R, have you had a chance to ride it? If so, what's it like? Is it much better than the old bike and is it worth buying one. More importantly would it be any good for Track Days or Racing?

I hope you are keeping well and life is being good to you! Cheers in advance.

Martin

Hi Martin. I do remember you. Of course I am still with Buell. Who else would be crazy enough to have me !! I was involved at the later stages with the new 1125R regarding all press photography and images. It is exactly what so many have been waiting for. To summarise, it is a more refined version of the Buell concept as we know it. It is faster, smoother, with a slicker gearbox, more stopping power. It still maintains the great handling and engine delivery characteristics of a Buell and looks great. Get a test ride as soon as you can.
Craig.

Hello Craig, my name is Yoree Washington. I'm not going to beat around the bush here, I really admire the skills, talents and personality traits you are said to have. It would be an honor to meet you. What I would really like to ask is what do I do to become a Buell stunt rider? Stunting on any bike would be great, but I own, and love my XB9 and my opion is no other bike can compare if you want total control...thats fast or slow...nose diving or nose to the sky! I'm ready to be mentored if some one is willing to be the mentor! I'm anxiously waiting on your response, thanx! (hopefully i didn't come off the wrong way mentioning that I'm looking for a mentor. Buells just make me feel like a kid at the store, as I wait on this dream as humble as possible. Maybe you know of some one who could give me some direction?)

Yoree, if only I could stop by places in the world and give tuition. My problem these days is that I am very busy around the world with many shows and internal Buell projects. I have developed an academy where I help to improve your skills in all areas of motorcycling. This academy is in its early stages and it may be some time before I can begin to tour around the world with it. So far I have managed to pilot it in South Africa, Denmark, Italy, UK, Holland. I do plan to come to the States in the future. For now just keep practicing. Take care,
Craig.

What belt you used ? (11mm,14mm) How many belt you change in summertime ?
I just buy xb9s and i wheelie couple day and belt go broke.
Then i buy new belt, and same
shit happen again. Belt broke again :( Can you help me ? Buell is xb9s -04. 11mm. belt.
Maybe i put chain ? or what.

Jani from finland

Jani, it is not normal for belts to break like this. I run my Buell XB12s stunt bikes on standard belts and have done since they were launched in 2002. I can only suggest the following ...
1. Check the front and rear pulleys for damage or sharp edges.
2. Make sure that a new belt is fitted correctly. This means that belt guards must first be removed so that the belt is only worked in one plane. It must never be forced sideways or twisted because this can permanently damage the belt creating a weak point.
3. Make sure that your dealer has supplied you with the most up to date belt and not a rogue old stock belt.

Converting to a chain is NOT the answer. If problems persist then you must ask your dealer to help you to solve this without question. I hope you solve this problem.
Craig.

Thanks for signing my helmet in Fuengirolla! ;-)
I never took so much care of a helmet. ;-)
You were great there!

hi i thought ya show was great. i would of liked 1 of your t shirts u fired but sum 1 else got it first. great stunts. see you later. oliver

great show i saw u at britannia stadium

Hello Mr. Jones,

My name is Richard Carolli. Although I'm not a radical rider like yourself, I do ride hard and fast! In September 2004, I rode my 2003 Buell Lightning XB9S From Prince Rupert, B.C. To Virginia; Over 4000 miles! It performed flawlessly! It now has 15,000+ miles on it, and is still running strong! If I could compare the bike to a breed of horse, I would consider it to be a cross-breed of an American Clydesdale and an Arabian!! Bold and agressive, but yet extremely agile and elegant! So, if your viewers and fans want to see the pictures, just let me know. And for those of you who read this, I suggest that you take the 125 mile ride between Skagway, Alaska And Whitehorse, Yukon Territory! I am here to tell you that, the only other
place on the planet where you can find scenery like that, is in Scotland or New Zealand! Find out for yourself!!
So,in closing, I wish you all Godspeed and long life!!
Sincerely,
Richard Carolli

P.S. Craig rules on the stoppies, wheelies and everything else in our wet delusions of grandure...
Or is it just me? :-(

Hi CRAIG;

I attended your stunt show in here in South Africa recently.This is what I want to say to 'YOU'and 'WING': " U are Magical on the bike..to say the least.."I cant comprehend exactly how u dance like that with bike..R u a magician at all...??!!

I would like to order your dvd for my collection. I own Suzuki Hayabusa 1300, Is it possible to wheelie this bike??

''Too Magical For Me..."regards Ishmael,RSA.Your Fan.

Hey there Craig.
Really great show on Saturday, up at Gearotek.You really are one hell of a rider.Im a buell owner my self and love everything about my bike and have slowly been trying to do more on it, as in stoppies and wheelies.I unfortunatly dumped my bike 3 weeks before the show on Saturday, doing a stoppie by the way.I arrange alot of the Sunday rides for Buell Clearwater, where Jono works and where I bought my bike.
