    EBR 1190RX Unveiling

    We haven't even heard this thing yet - part of the ride is the sound. Really. How many people come up to your Buell after you start it and just *stare*?

    EBR 1190RX Unveiling

    I'm looking for the AX as well. I have an 08 XT and can't imagine ever getting rid of it. I'm hoping the AX has some of the Uly features. I'd like to see belt or shaft drive, standard cases, heated grips, power ports, excellent seat, etc. I could see the AX also gaining some advanced...

    EBR 1190RX Unveiling

    I think the price point is within range for what the bike is. BMW has a completely different economy of scale vs EBR, even with Hero. Also I would say that the electronics on the EBR are pretty advanced for their first street bike. Also keep in mind where and how they are built. 40k for the...

    i call b.s.!!!!!!

    The issue is that if you would share your knowledge in a non-berating manner it would be more useful to everyone in general. Moderator or not. I understand your frustration. Possibly more than you might think. When you know and engine so well you could fix it with both hands tied behind your...

    i call b.s.!!!!!!

    Seriously, jetlee? A moderator telling a member to "shut the fuck up"? I understand forum moderators tend to get beat on - but that is astoundingly unprofessional.

    Grounding the coil

    It is not the coil you are grounding. You are using the coil bolt as an easy-to-get-to ground path. The ground path for the coil is the spark plug's anode, or to keep it simple, the engine (cathode is the center tip, anode the 90-degree piece of metal that you adjust for gap). No or weak...

    Range Rover Runs Over Bikers

    Can I sum up the "moderate" view thusly?: I was just talking to someone about how, on a 6800 mile trip, I didn't once drop my bike, cause a traffic issue, get too close to a vehicle, or otherwise endanger myself or others. I wanted to make it home. I absolutely do not think the injured...

    Range Rover Runs Over Bikers

    Not sure I'm using the quote function correctly. So in the 7 other videos you are saying that the guy that got run over was the ONE bike rider that didn't break multiple laws over a long period of time? If the law sees each biker individually - and I agree it should - then each and every...

    Range Rover Runs Over Bikers

    Again - the bikers (and yes I paint the entire group with the INTENT TO DO HARM brush) wanted to do harm. The SUV driver merely wanted to flee. The driver didn't attack anyone. Someone was hurt, yes. But that was due to the ENTIRE GROUP OF RIDERS - yes every last one of them - being involved...

    Range Rover Runs Over Bikers

    No - the "why" is because a group of thugs thought it would be fun to beat up a guy for operating a vehicle on the road. The fact that it was car vs bike is completely meaningless. It was one guy vs group of bullies. He fled, and rightly so. On of the guys got hurt? So? The difference is...

    Range Rover Runs Over Bikers

    So let me be clear on this: Everything that occurred in that video was 100% the fault of the motorcyclists. There is no standpoint from which it can be said the the driver of the car was at *fault* for anything that happened. As a motorcycle rider I take exception to any statement, idea, or...

    New EBR 1190 Unveiled!!!

    0:41 - "A first fuel in frame bike" in reference to a 2007 1125r. XBs used this design prior to the 1125. Also in the 0:40-0:50 range "Making specific engineering changes to the 72 degree v-twin produced by Rotax." also in reference to the 1125r. That engine was designed by Buell and is...

    That video is full of errors. Like nearly every statement is incorrect.

    Anyone try piston coatings?

    Where's the value for a street bike?

    Anyone try piston coatings?

    I would say that unless you are providing forced air induction, our air-cooled engines don't need coating. If you are racing and want a little piece of mind AND you are rebuilding your engine anyway... go for it but its not necessary. Is it cool? Yes. Its a bit like running nitrogen in your...
