Hi guys,

just dropped in here as I'm sneaking constantly through a lot of Buell-forums.
I'm an 48 years old german engineer, working since more than 25years in Switzerland, living near Zürich - and after a lot of different bikes between 1 an 6 cylinders, Wankel-engine, 2 and 4-stroke, I discovered Buell in 1997 when I bought the brand-new M2.
After a couple of engine-defects - almost every 18'000km the oil-pump-pinion collapsed - and as Buell has not been officially imported to Switzerland in the pre-XB-area - I've been pretty alone to solve my problems - I sold the M2 in 2001.
At this time they presented the XB9R which fascinated me - but I wanted to get the bike with a real engine an not this girlie-part they placed in there a the beginning. I had to wait two years until Erik built the XB I waited for. In that time I owned still mit '84 K100S - but I only made about 200km on the Motorcycle in 2 years..
Actually I'm still riding a 2003 XB12S for the road - with a couple of modifications at the chassis and the engine - got a 1470big-stroke update from MTek - which made more than 150'000km up to now.
But I also own some XB's for the track - together with some 1125R, 1125RR and 1190RR...
Yes, you guessed right I'm the guy behind http://www.PegasusRaceTeam.com - and if you've any questions about the team and the bikes, you might ask.

cya on the road - or perhaps at one of the races!
Thomas

welcome Thomas - you are a true enthusiast ( although should have kept the M2 IMO )

will look forward to following your teams exploits

Good Luck

Yep, the M2 has been a great bike - but the better is the enemy of the good
And after a couple of blown engines I lost the confidence in the reliability of the bike

See you at Assen then

Oh, and welcome

..due to business obligations I've no chance to be at the race in Assen - it will be one of the most important ones for us this year
But all the race activities have to be funded - so I've to earn some money...

Hi Tom, and welcolme,

you must work and we will play

...just show up in the pits - you'll recognize Jens immediately - he's a bug guy with beard and tatoos on both arms - he'll explain and show you everything you're interested in - as long as there is some time...
Have fun in Assen and support all fellow Buell-racers!
