    Swap scg suspension?

    Just putting out a feeler, anyone have black s suspension parts to trade for 09 black scg suspension set-up? I'm in Silver Spring MD. Alternatively, I'd consider selling the whole bike for the right price.

    How to replace output shaft bearings??

    That's really what I wasn't sure of, whether the bearing is fit into the inside of the case or the outside, just behind the sprocket. I'm not prepared to split the case.

    How to replace output shaft bearings??

    I decided to replace the output shaft bearings and seal on my '09 xb12. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this? I haven't had any luck finding a video and I'm not seeing the manuals at the top of the page. Any help is much appreciated

    Mysterious noise

    Your first suggestion was better than your second, Crash. By checked, I meant that I actually measured the primary chain tension as well as I was able to with a tape measure and I experimented with several different tensions with no improvement. If it were possible to stare the bike back into...

    Mysterious noise

    I checked the primary chain. Didn't appear to be too loose. Thankfully, my bike isn't making that grinding sort of noise. It's much more intermittent, at this point anyway. I'm thinking I'll replace some of the less expensive parts first and hope to resolve the problem before it gets to...

    Mysterious noise

    So I reconnected the muffler valve and continued to hear the sound. It's a dull clacking sort of sound that does seem to be coming from the right side of the bike. I'm wondering if it might be a wheel bearing or the idler arm bearing going bad. I rode to the top of a hill and coasted down with...

    Mysterious noise

    Right, 2009 scg, 10,500 miles. The muffler valve has been disconnected since previous owner installed a race ecm with the stock muffler. I opened up the valve and used a series of zip ties on the loose cable end to hold it in the open position after reading a post on this forum that suggested...

    Mysterious noise

    I've been trying to find the source of a intermittent rattling sound that has me concerned since it seems to be coming from inside the crankcase. I'm hoping it's something like worn bearings or a loose baffle in the exhaust, but the sound is all I have to go on. I noticed it first after getting...

    ride safe everyone

    Thanks for posting the photos of your misfortune. Good incentive to stay geared up and attentive. Really glad you're not more damaged and that the bike's mostly intact.

    my battle with the wobbles

    IanDark, I've brought that up in other threads. I noticed my weights are placed on the left side of the wheel as opposed to what the manual prescribes. I experience the wobbles around 90mph and have wondered if that might be a factor. I've reduced the wobbles greatly by tuning suspension and...

    GTFO Of The Left Lane

    Driving on roads in the US was so aggravating after living in Germany for three years. Those people take driving seriously. It's a much more challenging process just to get your license. We used to joke that the Germans had microchips implanted in their heads because most seemed to abide by the...

    wheeling area?

    That would be Wheeling, West, by God, Virginia. I'm pretty familiar with the area but I'm in Morgantown, WV. Don't see too many Buells around here either but there have got to be a few others besides me.

    Hit a milestone

    Captain Chaos, I'd like to do better than that. 2,240 is not too bad considering the limited opportunities I have to get out. I'll see what I can do about that though!
