    Electrical Problem Blowing 30A Fuse and Front end Rattle

    Special thanks to squidbuellie and neomac3444 for their great help and advice. It's guys like this that make this forum a great community!

    Need New Levers!

    Titax GP shorts if you can find them. I just picked some up on Fleabay for $75 new...they were $239 retail! Love them! Same dealer sells Rizoma and says they are just as good or better but was closing them out because Titax couldn't properly service the US market. He toured their Czech...

    Just killed

    I had a very similar problem with my 05 XB12S continuing to blow the 30A fuse so I painstakingly went through most of my bike looking for rubbed wires and loose/bad grounds but did not find any. Next, based on a few prior posts on this site I borrowed a multimeter and did a thorough battery...

    EBR front rotor hardware installation

    Okay so even though I'm keeping my stock rotor I still have to remove the front wheel, axle, caliper, and rotor? I guess there is not enough clearance with the stock springs (needing to come out) to just remove a few bolts/washers at a time and swap them out?

    buellxb breather mod fail

    Not intending to insult anyone but I threw a code 21 due to the fact that my exhaust cable was not run properly when I re-installed the air box. I also had the additional problem of the prior owner running the exhaust cable inside the sprocket cover and rubbing against my belt! If the exhaust...

    Electrical Problem Blowing 30A Fuse and Front end Rattle

    A little background that may/may not be important...I recently acquired a 2005 XB12S from a Harley mechanic in the Austin, Texas area who acquired this bike and swapped frames due to a title issue. The bike has just over 5,000 miles and I "stole" it for $2,500.00. Apparently, it is not as...

    Fender poll

    I run a front fender on my white 05 XB12s solely for protection of the sliders and front engine/header area...if anyone can convince me it isn't necessary for protection of anything other than the sliders mine is coming off too! Also seems like fender is much less noticeable on darker rides...
