    Some new goodies installed!!!!

    Looks good. I have the Jardine fairing brackets. The end that bolts to the belt tensioner, I painted flat silver to match the tensioner braket. It cleans up the look.

    washing your bike

    Be very CAREFUL(!)when using Armour-All on any bike tire. Even if you don't think you got any on the treads, centrifical force can spread it to the tread. Wipe all excess off! Don't ask me how I know!

    Will a Jardine slip-on be more trouble than it's worth?

    I have 6000 miles on my Jardine. Since I read so many times that the packing in the RT-1's sucks I took mine apart with about 1000 miles on it. Everyone was right the packing sucked. I drilled all of the rivets out, both ends. The end cap at the tip would not come out even with the rivets...

    Belt Guard Survey

    Took mine off, really cleans up the look, especially with the passenger pegs removed. Never wear shoes with laces exposed!!! Road my little super-moto once with laced shoes and the damn laces wrapped around the shifter linkage! Fortunatley did not wreck but invented some new words! Always...

    Buell at Daytona

    Sorry no pics, we forgot the camera. Not putting the Buell team down, I was screaming the loudest for Danny and Geoff! I did yell a few times for the KTM bike also. When I looked at some of the riders in the pits(19 years old)I can actually say I have socks older than they are! And the lovely...

    Buell at Daytona

    Since I live only 45 minutes from the track I spent some time this year at Daytona. Flat tracks and the road racing were great. On Saturday we went into the pits and got to spend some time with Mr. Buell hisself. Very pleasant guy considering all the business he was trying to accomplish. We...

    Common problems on XB12R

    Mine is an 09 Bolt. Love the thing, I guess I am old school cause I still like push rod, air-cooled engines. Simple machines, at least compared to todays hi-tech stuff(no offense to hi-tech). If you like to tinker they are cool. Consider that the basic engine started in '57(I know there has...

    Project Valerie

    when you replace the trans breather hose route it to the left side of the bike, away from the headers. Its worth the little effort.

    What did you do for your Buell today?

    Cleaned the little air filter I installed during the breather reroute, polished my RT-1, made a new gasket for the small two screw inspection cover on the left side, took a ride and then had a beer in the garage listening to the 09 'bolt cool down. Life can be good!

    Anyone have BiLT Gear?

    I have one of their textile jackets. Went down at about 30 mph(my fault, went into the curve to hot)and rolled/slid like a log. Tore the jacket up but not me. Not the highest quality but I bought it to give a try. Like an idiot I forgot my gloves so the hands took a beatin'. I try to buy the...

    Mirror plug ideas?

    I bought the aluminum ones from Dark Horse(I think, my old brain is wearing out). I had them painted the same color of my Bolt(white) and it looks outstanding. I have bar ends that look good also. Go to the hardware store they have draws of stuff and they have nice little black plugs to put...

    Lets see your daily drivers!

    McMurphy, Please cover your security chai with an old tire tube. It will save the finish on the wheels. Yes I know I am anal. But the blue wheels look bad when scratched, don't ask me how I know.

    GIRL

    I looked for an answer to this dilema in my factory Firebolt manual and there was no chapter for it so I guess its not that important. Maybe ask Oprah, not Buell.

    BUELL XB9 PLANKING!!!!!!

    Rollie Free must be turning in his grave. He did his at 150 mph, if my memory services me right. It takes big huevos to wear a bathing cap at a buck fifty, damn near naked!

    What does everyone do for a living?

    Sewer industry, name sez it all. We run tv camera's thru sewer pipes and fix them from inside. Just left my company after 29 years, boss became a crook. Start with a new firm next month. This past month off has been great with lots of time on my 12R.
