    Taking a little trip to the west coast

    I dont know why I dont finish replying to messages. I bought the bike with 10k on it and have put 4.5k on it in the last few months. Hoping to get a spare belt from Paul. Otherwise I'll have to make an emergency order to ASB or BuellParts.

    Taking a little trip to the west coast

    I've had the bike for about 6 months but I've been riding it for the past year. I think I'll get a new belt on it and call it good. It hasn't given me too many issues but I've just slowly been fixing things. I'm getting new tires and wheel bearings before I go. I'm not too worried about being...

    Taking a little trip to the west coast

    My one and only fear is bike failure. I'm very worried that something will go wrong. I sure hope it doesn't. And jrad I decided against going to Portland. I think the extra day to rest on Newport will be worth it. Anything I should see in that town?

    swingarm pinch bolt stripped

    Oh come on dont look at is as a lemon. Buells mistake was telling everyone how "little maintenance" needs to be done on these. So the PO didnt take care of them. Im constantly ironing out mistakes on my bike, but its ok, because I then know that its fixed correctly. Once you get it ironed out...

    wheel bearings

    So when you rent the tools, you pay 160, then when you return it you get that money back?

    wheel bearings

    As TwinCycles suggests, I would NOT use a socket to install the bearings. I would use 2 bearing drivers and run a threaded rod with nuts on both or one end. Too many times have I seen a hub get jacked up because the bearing didnt go in straight, or the socket slips and ruins the bearing. Do it...

    wheel bearings

    The one thing stopping me from doing wheel bearings right now is the fact that I dont have a puller. I did it for years with a punch and hammer. Then used a puller and never want to go back. Rent one from oriellys or something. Huge time and sanity saver

    I ordered a new one along with some exhaust studs. Hope to be here by thursday so I can take the bike on a weekend trip. So theres a nut inside of the frame that the mount bolt threads to? Shit maybe I should see if I can tighten it up? I dont think my mount is actually bad so ill try that...

    12ss kick ash tank cover?

    I ordered my plastics from Buell Parts and 4 days later they told me they werent in stock but would be in 21 days. Didnt even offer for me to cancel the order. Just said I have to wait 21 days and then they would ship it to me. Should be here soon though thankfully

    Wanna play a game? (Squid Hunting)

    Theres nothing but squids in South Dakota. Theres just not enough riding season for them to figure out they should wear gear and by the time I've almost convinced them to, the season is over and the cycle continues.
