    Cherry bomb airbox cover

    Hey guys, thought I'd let you know about an ebay sale I stumbled on yesterday. Not mine ,but I know people are always it llooking for them. I always keep an eye out for an unmolested version since the PO of my bike put an led switch in it and didn't use the right hardware, leading to cracking...

    Ticking at 3k RPM

    Thanks, I've read that if there is something wrong with the injectors it should be pretty obvious, so maybe I'm overthinking things. I have a jardine/K&N combo with buelltooth and tune and it seems pretty spot on.

    Ticking at 3k RPM

    Took my bike out for a short ride, and noticed as the RPMs come up past 3k I hear a light ticking noise. I've found a bunch of stuff about general valve train noise but am worried this could be the injectors. How can I tell?

    F/S XB Skyline seat NEW!

    Awesome, couldn't send a PM, said your mailbox was full. My bike was converted by PO from S to SCG suspension, and I can't tell if they did the seat since the mark is not noticeable on the underside. All I know is during a ride to Prescott my butt started hurting near Wickenburg. I can...

    WTB: Used Headlight Assembly

    I accidentally melted a lens when a towel was draped over the front with the key on. Just looking for relatively clean used one if someone has one lying around. Just the housing would work too. I can get a new one on STP for 135+ship, but trying to get one closer to 80 shipped.

    preparing for rear rocker gasket leak

    That's the stuff I'm lookin for! Thanks for all the advice guys. I probably won't have time to get to it until the weather in Phoenix is too hot to ride, but I'll post more once I get into it. My father in law has some extra garage space I can probable use for a weekend so I don't have to do...

    preparing for rear rocker gasket leak

    It is an 07 XB12S w/ 16k miles. Was actually thinking of intake seals, so thanks for the confirmation, and I'll look into an O2 sensor. How do I confirm whether is a rocker cover or rocker box leak? Also, yes to RSS. It was definitely running lean though when I first bought it. Had K&N + Jardine...

    preparing for rear rocker gasket leak

    Thanks for the advice guys, and I really appreciate the offer lunatic. I'm in phoenix area, though. I've found that thread too, and actually a youtube video with all those steps as well so should be a good reference. I also saw some advice you posted lunatic awhile back about using opposing...

    preparing for rear rocker gasket leak

    So I need to dig in and verify the leak is where I think it's for sure from the rear rocker cover, but at this point I'm pretty sure it is, and want to prepare myself for what all I need to get. You can barely see it in the picture, but I noticed some oil caked on the hose behind the rear...

    2003 Buell XB9S - just got it, need some help finding accessories please

    listen to lunatic, he will guide you straight. As for the mirrors, I believe you specified handlebar mirrors, which I think you're meaning bar-end mirrors. I don't run bar end mirrors but I think you can just find some universal ones compatible with 7/8'' handlebars. That's all I did for my...

    Rebound damping screw

    Gotcha. I only have basic tools and no stands/lifts, just doing basic maintenance in my carport. I'll bring it to someone for this job.

    Rebound damping screw

    Perfect, thanks!

    Rebound damping screw

    Appreciate the advice. This is going to be beyond my mechanical know how and toolset. Any idea what this will run me in labor if I order the parts? Also, does anyone have any phoenix area recommendations? I'm guessing it's ill advised to ride around with this issue...

    Rebound damping screw

    I was checking the suspension settings for the first time since purchasing my XB12SCG, and the right side rebound screw will turn clockwise indefinitely until it buries down into the fork (it does not hit a "stop"). The left side had no issues. Any idea what's going on here?

    XB12S Red Rear Spring

    I found another thread about master cylinders where someone used the brembo PS11. Had a lot of links regarding MC to caliper ratios to back up why the pedal feel was so bad. Hope this helps!

    How to tell seat style

    Also, after seeing the seats on sphd, I noticed the part number indicators on the underside had very clear white markings in the circles. I thought mine was the scg due to the small dot in one of the circles, but it appears the ohers all have that too (perhapds from the molding process). Can...

    Loose rear caliper

    So I was inspecting my rear brakes and noticed the caliper had some play where the bolts run through it. Went to tighten the bolts, and they are tight. I'm going to pull it off and try to figure out what's going on, but was wondering if there is a common issue i am missing here, or if anyone...
