PRO MOTO BILLET STRIKES AGAIN:
The guys at Pro Moto Billet are just awesome. They are very proactive at helping the Cannondale owner with aftermarket needs and their latest is a spark arrestor end cap. It will work with any year Cannondale X440, S440. And by the looks of it, it will also work with modified stock exhausts that were cut shorter and possibly could be combined with the PMB Silent Insert for an even quieter exhaust system than stock. Great Job PMB! Check out their new exhaust parts along with the great rear disc Sharkfin they provide.

ADDED TWO MORE BIKE REVIEWS:
One review is a magazine review of a 2003 X440 found on Cannondales website. Really sweet review. The other review is by Jim Murray of a Cannondale demo Day held in New jersey on Sept 14th. It is short and sweet and you have to see the two pics.

KEVIN BEACH SENDS IN A NEW BIKE MOD:
Kevin has a very good picture of what melted pieces of your pants look like on a Cannondale exhaust header. I'm sure he felt a couple of those on his leg. Check out how Kevin solved the problem on his 2003 X440.

JOEJET SENDS IN A NEW BIKE MODIFICATION:
Aftermarket parts are tough to find for the Cannondale if you don't know what fits your bike. Well Joe has solved the front fender part as it seems an Acerbis silver front fender for an older KTM seems to fit the dales very well. Only a slight modification is needed and Joe has written up what you need to do. Thanks Joe!

UPDATE: WHEN IT'S WORKING YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS:
I thought the old guestbook was butt ugly so I have been looking for something more fun. I didn't want to use a hosted guestbook but this one from Bravenet is pretty cool. Click on the Guestmap button to the left of the Cannondaler Homepage and PLEASE leave your mark on the map. That goes for you bike manufacturers, vendors, aftermarket guys, Presidents of countries, Dignitaries, high ranking officials or non-Cannondale types out there. Don't be afraid. It's ok to sign it.
guestmap Thing is down more than it's up. Grrrr!
JOEJET STILL HAS HIS C440 FORSALE AND THE PRICE WAS LOWERED:
Somebody better grab this bike quick because it will save you a bundled of money over a new Cannondale. Plus you get a ton of goodies and it's now $300 lower in price. Check it out along with our other great hot bikes in our classifieds.

KEVIN SENDS IN ANOTHER RACE PIC:
Even though at the moment Kevin is leading in his class in the NEMX series Kevin was injured a few weeks ago and will most likely be out for the rest of the series. So while he is down he sent in another pic of him at Jolly Rodgers on his X440s. Get Well Kevin!

ADDED A SEARCH FUNCTION TO THE WEBSITE:
It's a little goofy search script but it works. Try it out on the left side of the Cannondaler home page.
