    `05 XB12R stall at stop/idle - intermittent

    i have a 07 XB12R with the RACE tune, it would idle like PooP! and stall when idling. Checked the AFV, it was 105%, I reset the AFV to 100% and did a TPS reset. It immediately started to idle smooth at 1000rpm. I read somewhere (probably twin motorcycles) that the degree for your TPS sensor...

    New tires and maintenance

    Yes, when you try to remove the wheels and the previous owner torqued them down to 200+ ft-lbs and you need a 4 ft breaker bar to loosen the axle. Stop, order wheel bearings and inner wheel spacers... Never Fails!!! I had a "buell" trained mechanic tork my rear axle to RIDICUOULS once when I had...

    Twin Motorcycles Dual Exhaust

    Just to add my useless 2 cents. I have a D&D on an XB12R... LOUD and TANGY is the way I would describe it. I'm not a fan of the sound. I preferred the Jardine can that it replaced BUT before you all chime in... Yes it BLEW UP GOOD! Hence the D&D that I got for an amazing price (probably from a...

    heeeelllllpppp!!!!!

    34:19 and Cooter have some sort of "special" bond going on that I personally find uncomfortable. My 2 cents... Disconnect the brakes (if they work) and roll her down the largest hill you can find, into a densely populated residential area at 5pm. May not be the fastest bike you ever ride, it...

    No Spark, No Gas, No GO!

    Bike is a 2008, no steel/bronze oil pump drive gear. Hammer Performance recommends 70lbs with red lock tight. The manual has a procedure that accorcding to H.P. works out to 50lbs.

    Resurrecting a Red Lobster

    I enjoy my “black scorpion”, your “red dragon “ is a nice score/fix! Is it just me but are ALL previous Buell owners abusive riders that don’t stay up on basic maintenance? These things aren’t Honyamaukis! I spent the most time bringing an XB12R from the dead fixing snapped bolts. My CR...

    No Spark, No Gas, No GO!

    I had no idea the GS could “get over” my poor assumption. I have never been much of a fan of BMW, butt ugly IMHO. Thx for the BBQ tip?

    No Spark, No Gas, No GO!

    Hind sight is always 20/20, its hard not to overthink the diagnostic process. I try to take "known" issues into account first, really shaves off the hours. I was very fortunate to have a good ECU and a bike to rob electronic parts from even thou that wasn't my issue. The SuperTenere is a BIG...

    TPS Sensor P0279.3AA

    How did you contact tootal? Bad weather? How long ago did you order the shaft? My buddies S3 throttle shaft splintered and a screw made it into the intake… I think I’m going to replace the shaft on my 07 for piece of mind

    Highway pegs - revisited

    Saw an XB12S a couple of years ago with a rod attached to the front end to be used with highway pegs. In one word “Awful” I’ve never considered highway pegs, strictly because of the look. It’s my badd because my long legs often cramp but it’s all about looking good!

    No Spark, No Gas, No GO!

    The saga between me and my XT has been a little tumultuous over the past six months, so bad that I picked up a Yamaha SuperTenre. In the spring I was blasting down a country highway, about 30 minutes from home when the bike cut out, dead. It was like someone had pulled the key out of the...

    RACE MAP vs STOCK MAP - EXTRA LEAN GROUND BEEF!

    Barrett, I was totally upfront about playing with a non daily rider and NOT blaming the bike or asking for tons of free tuning advice. No cause for concern at all. I wanted to know if others had observations about glowing pipes. Folks here have never steered me wrong. My interest is strictly...

    RACE MAP vs STOCK MAP - EXTRA LEAN GROUND BEEF!

    I reloaded my race map and let it idle for a while. The AFV was 100% because I reset it. The O2 sensor hummed nicely, apparently working and the EGO hovered around 120% The rear pipe did obtain a faint glow, had to turn the lights off to see it. Temp sensor reported 360 degree F and the fan...

    RACE MAP vs STOCK MAP - EXTRA LEAN GROUND BEEF!

    34-19 it was SMOKING HOT!!! according to your burn-o-matic gage so around 500 degree C im assuming. Way Too Warm, I don't have to shave the right side of my face HOT. The rear header was notably redder but its also had a lot less air flow and is in a darker region of the engine. I've been...

    RACE MAP vs STOCK MAP - EXTRA LEAN GROUND BEEF!

    thank you for the very detailed reply. Looks like I have some homework to do. 1) I'm messing around because I can, not my daily ride. 2) Bike was/is running fine. It had a stock tune and a jardine pipe. The jardine exploded (surprise) and I put on a D&D. I pulled the maps off the net (YES I...
