    Running Track Bike without Fan

    While you're chasing rotating mass, Evolution Industries makes aluminum replacements for the front primary sprocket and front belt pulley (if you're not already chain drive). If you're still belt, you can get a lighter rear pulley out of France.

    Different subframes?

    Ulysses vs Firebolt/Lighting is a pretty different subframe setup.

    Welding timing gear to spacer on 08+

    So, as you noted in your friend's case, the bike just acted like someone hit the kill switch instead of the crank also binding and acting like the motor locked going into a full skid?

    Welding timing gear to spacer on 08+

    I'm all for improving things when I can but... this one has me potentially overthinking... This is the first discussion i've seen of this failure mode on these engines, I'm sure it's not the only one to ever happen, but it doesn't seem common enough for there to be much community chatter about...

    Tps reset makes bike idle terrible and die

    That screams air leak to me?

    Tps reset makes bike idle terrible and die

    Bear in mind, when you do a TPS reset on the Buell, you likely also need to do a TPS reset after on the aftermarket fuel controller 'cause it's driven by that same signal. But, I agree with the others, there isn't a need for one on these bikes, and I've lost count of how many times pulling a...

    Aircraft Style Fuel Cap

    Nice! Reminds me a lot of the OEM tube frame caps actually.

    Race Buell Improvement Thread

    I need to get over to Chuckwalla, hear nothing but good about it, and also that the fast guys tend to hang around that track. Bike is already settled on, going with the Yamaha CP3 platform, ideally basing off a 2024 MT-09 as it's got an improved quick shifter setup out of the crate, but they're...

    Race Buell Improvement Thread

    I’m running Tech Spec grips, only the frame panels, didn’t put the tank ones on as I dunno if 15yr old plastic should have that load added to it. My suit has rubber gripper panels inside the knees too so I don’t need much to lock in on a bike. I know via FB that at least one person is getting...

    05 xb12s rear tire off

    Ya know... that's kinda awesome.

    05 xb12s rear tire off

    After doing it a couple times, I like how easy the rear wheel is to get in and out, as long as the back is high enough. Once the axle is out, belt is off (taking the rear hugger/belt guard off makes this easier) it just wiggles in and out, pretty straight forward and no spacers/etc to screw...

    Smashed signal rebuilt with donor Blast lenses. Just gotta do a bar swap, drop the muffler so I can put the sidestand back on (after finding a spacer to match the thickness of the chin fairing bracket) and eventually put street rubber on and it'll be back on the road. I at some point lost a...

    Race Buell Improvement Thread

    I wish Twin would just print a replacement instead of that reinforcement, press in a threaded insert to match the existing one, done. That said, the liquid nails treatment worked way better than I expected, repair isn't visible and the stem is taking as much abuse as I'm comfy applying so far. I...

    Race Buell Improvement Thread

    I've torn the damaged blinker down to it's individual components, the stem that keys into the light itself is in a vice, doped up with liquid nails to see if that will repair the tears, that plus a lens from the Blast set and I'll have complete blinkers again. I hope. Plan B is the rear blinkers...

    Keyless gas cap

    Race bike, make more lighter... I'd preferred they didn't bother with the two decorative bolts and just had spots for the minimal three to hold the cap down.
