    That man needs no introduction.

    The smartest guy on the forum tells you its the pump, and you've done your best to avoid that at all costs. Could it be something in the tuning in the ECM? SURE! Most people think the f*cking with the tuning will solve fuel pump issues, so there is a very good chance someone was already in...

    I dont know if I should be impressed or scared.

    South Texas - S to R tail swap?

    It’s a long shot. No one converts Lightning tails to Firebolt. The Lightning components are very hard to find and very expensive… and people know that. I found a set of silver seat rails and rear seat pan in different listings on ebay for about $250. Better snap to if you really want to do...

    The pushrods are slightly different sizes. Unless you use a large caliper or compare sizes closely you will not notice the difference. There is also paint markings on the pushrods to indicate size/positions. I recommend downloading a free manual from buellmods.com and READING IT. Putting the...

    Well.....Bye.

    None of us were shocked or surprised.

    Well.....Bye.

    According to the website, there is a 2021 Buell 1190sx available, so what are you waiting for? They bought the name almost a year ago, and the Buell stickers that go over the EBR lettering has been done for awhile. The company owners are the same, they just bought the name from Harley.

    Buell engine vs. Sporster engine

    A star that is twice as bright burns half as long. Plus the two motors don’t interchange, so the point is moot.

    New isolators

    The reality with the front isolators is HD isnt doing anymore. They sold off the last of those to VPI who has 44 left. Typical of the Buell community, most will not be insightful enough to purchase one before they are all gone and then cry the blues about how the world is unfair, HD screwed...

    Intake sealing, the final solution

    Did you use the James blue gaskets with the lip? Did you use Hylomar sealant? Is the manifold really centered between the two flanges when you tighten down the flanges? Have you checked the OD of the intake runner interface for roundness? All it takes is to be a little off to allow air to leak...

    Just bought back into the Buell life.

    Nice find. I only thought those special packages only existed in catalogs. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/32777/94705.html?1106884632

    Wanted:

    Why not just order a new one? They're $10. Most people pull them out and toss them, even Buell did on their Race kits.

    What is the best way to turn off the seat heater?

    Be aware that this cover is a net/mesh like material. Not that its bad, but the pics make it look like a solid material. If you look at the pics on the ad with the numbers, you can see how it really is.

    Won’t start, won’t rev after fuel sprayed in to prime.

    Is the needle lifting / diaphragm working? Is the float level correct? The Blast does not use an accelerator pump, so all circuits need to be at 100%. If it is running lean and you have to spray fuel to get it to start, you likely have blockages in the carburetor. You need to pull it apart, and...

    Trouble finding neutral

    Have you tried variations of the clutch adjustment? You may have a tolerence stacking issue that requires a *slightly* different adjustment than what the book calls out. The book does call out a range... did you go for the middle or one side of the range? Did you actually check the fluid...

    BIKES & AMMO Sale-Southern PA

    Those are some mighty fine bikes. I always wanted one of those RD's growing up, but the parents wouldnt allow it. That XR1200 is a fine example that looks very well cared for. You should be proud. A tip of the hat and shot of whiskey to you, sir!

    Trouble finding neutral

    Energy One is a solid choice. You will need a tool to remove the clutch pack or you can try to mickey mouse something with some hardware store bits. Be sure to follow the instructions on fluid recommendations given from Energy One. Youre going to be about $200+ into this, so youre going to want...

    Trouble finding neutral

    Did you try to loosen the primary adjustment after the bike became difficult to find neutral? A couple of turns will suffice and will indicate whether the issue is due to the chain being too tight.

    What is the best way to turn off the seat heater?

    It looks like the Skyline seats are still available from HD and/or VPI. These are a lot more comfortable than the low seat. N0025.1AJYW M0090.1AC

    Trouble finding neutral

    Have you tried adjusting the primary chain when the bike is warm/hot? Or warm the bike up, and when you realize its not shifting to neutral, shut the bike down, and loosen the primary chain adjuster a little and see if that helps. Chain drive mechanisms often have a tight and a loose point, so...
