I can't open the spreadsheet xls file, could this be sent as pdf? thanks, dave

Hmmm, I don't have Adobe on this PC, Dave.  I'll have to see what I can do.  Worst case scenario I can send it to you as a .pdf made from another PC periodically as changes are made.

Got 8 of 'em on there!

That's actually pretty cool.  And statistically startling.  9 years down the road on a production that until this location no one had ever considered tracking all in one place.  And in a matter of hours you've got 12.5% of total production documented.  This website is a weird place.  Weird-good.  But weird .

Do you use some other spreadsheet program?  Or none at all?

[spydglide]

Howie, it's too bad you couldn't have recorded the purchase of 'JOY' tomorrow.......the date would be cool:  08/08/08      har!  spyder

Where did Jorge see that one that's in Montana listed?  I would like to see if I can get any more info. on the bike.

I still need to find the one that I ran across in a dealer's collection back in January.  So, maybe we can get 2 more added today.  Would bring the total up to almost 16%!

Also, George will get catapulted to the top of the heap tonight when I update the spreadsheet with his ___620 VIN!

Found the one at the Harley dealer and added it to the list.  Also added links to photographic evidence of the bike's existence, where possible.

Hey, with some help from Tim, we got to 10.  With the 3rd Anniston, AL owner that Dave is working on getting information for, that'll make 11!  17% - way to go!

[Hoist!]

Great job Brian. That's a damn good percentage already. No we need to conceive ways to find the other 53!

BTW, who is "jibat"? I see he had been posting here during '08. Now shown as a guest. What's he ride? A BLUE 3 maybe?

Just curious what happened to him. I don't remember him. But that was before I started paying so much attention to this Board!

Hoist!

I think if you could document the whereabouts of half of them, it would be an amazing feat.  Probably going to get exponentially more difficult from here on out.  One of the best ways is to contact sellers whenever one pops up and try to get the information about the bike, as well as have them pass the registry link on to the new owners.  For example, since you brought this up, I just remembered again the one in Cincinatti I was trying to buy.  I'm gonna send that guy an e-mail now.  For whatever reason, he sorta dropped off the face of the earth before we could strike a deal (hope everything's OK).  Beyond that, and without knowing the VINs of the remaining blues ones, it's gonna get tough to track the rest of 'em down, I think.

On "jibat," there was a guy that came back with a different screen name that the one he had previously used not too long ago.  Think he mentioned not remembering a password or something.  Later, I saw him posting again under his original screen name.  Might have been the same guy and just deleted the "jibat" account after Neal or someone helped him get hooked back up under his other screen name (of which I have now forgotten, sorry ).  Don't recall him being a blue 3 owner, though!

[Hoist!]

Good points Tim. I was thinking the same thing. What should we call it so it shows up as one of the first things in Google? Whether it's an FXR3 (regardless of color), Blue FXR3, BLUE 3, FXR 3 Blue, with spaces, without spaces. We want em here. Not sure Registry is required or wanted in the title, and might hinder searchers looking for BLUE 3 stuff!

So you're aware, the originator of the thread can go back and not only edit the text, but title as well. You can go back and rename your "History" thread to anything you want. Anyone responding would start carrying the new title forward unless they quote a post that still has the original title. I'm with you. If Brian agrees, maybe we can come up with a good name that we think will attract the most BLUE 3 owners possible!

Hoist!

Whoa! Here's a few more Brian.
