    05 XB12R- IS THIS BIKE TOTALED?

    +1 for stepping up and deciding to fix it. thats what i like to see.[up] Yes, a improper weld will be dangerous and screw it up so find a experienced and knowledgeable welder. while you are at it you might ask about bracing the area with perhaps some T6 alloy angle bracket material,, it would...

    Epic trip!

    Those are some great pix, seems like you might now know what you need to pack as well (straps and more wire :)) Speaking of your windshield stickers, I heard one by an IT guy: Jesus Saves! Jesus and Satan are called upon by the all powerful network admin to a challenge for control. Both sit...

    looking to buy another bike

    Some guy on here, also in "Chicagoland" has posted he was going to part out a perfectly good buell, needs a little wrench time love, but looked like a solid project not needing anything major, he has posted twice he is going to part it out, but i dont think he has actually done anything other...

    05 XB12R- IS THIS BIKE TOTALED?

    TIG welding would be an excellent method of repair, a competent welder could do that in their sleep,, im thinking $20 if you cleaned it up and stripped off the parts around it, but $40 to $60 to be generous. Biggest issue is fuel in the frame,, even though the repair isnt in a fuel containment...

    LED accent lighting

    I have mixed feelings on LED accents since you asked, I agree to some extent with Go cystocis, and truth is in MANY cases,,,,,, adding all kinds of LED lighting is just so ghetto, ever see a DONK car? I mean, i laugh at these Fast & Furious types with Pink or Red LEDs lighting up...

    Ported Throttlebody

    Tuning and performance mods on ANY motor are a package, not a list of single components, Read up on forums like the XL or Sportster forums on "Stage tuning" stage one for example is Air cleaner, jetting and exhaust, easy to do, inexpensive relative to the gains. Stage 2 might be upgrading a...

    Ported Throttlebody

    depends on what you think you need to accomplish, Bigger is not always better, in fact often times Bigger will make you slower and just create problems. You MAY already have an excellent game plan and a desired step by step way of getting there, but it isnt clear from your post. What are you...

    2005 XB9SX Super Part Out (MARCH 2014 UPDATE)

    Im not understanding the $1500 in costs either to put it back together unless you are paying someone else to do it. Bummer a cool bike is shredded into a million pieces. sad sad sad. it would be one thing if you wrecked it, i MAYBE could understand.... But hey, im rebuilding a XB12SCG that was...

    Raked cups

    Horses for Courses, just depends on the rider, but IMHO I think these Buells are a bit twitchy, The guy i bought my S1 Tuber from sold it for that very reason, said it scared him, he said he would have kept it if it was another frame/chassis but it was just too twitchy-Squirrelly, Its 2...

    Help with '98 M2

    Depends on what you have for a fuel tank, keep in mind the following is iffy if you have a plastic or fiberglass tank, but one thing that REALLY helps with these fuel issues is if you are going to let it sit, TOP off the tank (partially full tanks condense water) and add fuel STABIL its a fuel...

    Raked cups

    Raked triple trees and bearing cups are quite common in the Harley world, could you adapt something? This is something i have considered as well, Tank slappers are no fun.

    Better than a Uly?? Kick ass bike

    Mongols have to get a facebook paqe going and get at least 100 "likes" as no one really likes them anyways, Plus host at least 3 "Scentsy" parties. Initially they tried "Intimate wear" parties as the net gross is much higher but things took a bad turn when it came time to model the products...
