    What did you do for your Buell today?

    Took my Bolt for a nice ride yesterday(over to Daytona), wished some friends Merry Christmas while there, returned home, did a Christmas oil/filter change and drank a cold beer!

    DIY Vented airbox cover

    What did you use to secure the mesh to the cover? Is the mesh plastic or metal. What auto store did you get it at. It looks nice, I have wanted to do that to the hole in the front of the chin fairing.

    belt has broken, advice?

    I think I remember that some years of the sportsters have the same belt. Would that help cut costs? Can't hurt to look. Wish I had more info on this for you.

    New to Buell, in love with my firebolt

    Welcome! I think I saw that 12R on Craigslist here locally. I am in Sanford on a 09 12R. Did you see the Revival Rally next weekend (6th) in Orlando? Going there on mine to keep the local Buells in the spotlight. Care racers, etc. Should be fun. This forum has been VERY helpful to me to...

    Missouri governor declares state of emergency!

    I hope Ferguson takes a look at Sanford, Florida home of Travon, George AND me. Although it was painful for us all here it was peaceful when the jury gave down their verdict. I knew that cooler heads would prevail and I pray that the same happens in Ferguson. Life is hard enough without this...

    Polishing headers...... does this sound right???

    After I sanded mine down I used #0000 steel wool and Mothers and it works great. I do it once in awhile with a cold beer and the garage stereo going. Good karma for my 12R

    jardine repack?

    I use FMF four stroke blanket type. When packing pack it in real type. As it ages from heat it shrinks so packed is better. When replacing the rivets don't put one in and then tighten it and then do another the same way. Put them all in at once and then slightly tighten them in sequence...

    1190AX at AIM Expo?

    I live 30 minutes from there so I will be there to drool. Hope Erik is there this year, last year he took his wife on a trip for their anniversary. It was a great layout!

    Shinko Tires

    I used the Shinko's. Good price but the rear squared off to quickly. I did not realize how bad the effected my handling till I put Pirelli's back on.

    Would you change this tire?

    NO! It may look shallow but the point may have gone deeper before coming out where it did. Do not ask me how I know. Tires are YOUR LIFE!

    This is the only loose bolt issue I have had with my 09 bolt. Am I just lucky?

    Kick Stand Bolts

    Thanks for your help! Red it is! What the hell is lock tight anyway? I don't think its epoxy cause its one part, not two. How does it cure so quickly without exposure to the atmosphere.

    Kick Stand Bolts

    Put my 09 Bolt on its side stand and it did not feel right. Got down on my knee's to check(not so easy for my 63 year old knee's) and found that one of the two mounting bolts was missing! Further investigation of the remaining bolt was it had anti-seize on the threads not lock tight(I am the...
