    Footpeg relocation?

    08 Blast backfiring under acceleration

    Just out of curiosity (and in part because i had similar issues, and was going to try a few of the things from this thread before i figured it out) when you take the carb apart, and you take the larger jet out, theres that little silver tube that sits on top of the jet, and into the throat of...

    Paint and tail chop

    @Annoyance - Thank you, I had a feeling the lifetime durability of the spray can paint might not be fantastic. But, at the same time, it was fun as hell doin the paint job, and im thinking about re doing this over next winter. Not sure what yet, or if i will. Im also looking into an automotive...

    Paint and tail chop

    more or less, yes. If you are carefull and patient you can get rattle can paint jobs lookin just fine. just make sure to take your time with your entire project. The matte clear coat was the hardest to find. i think that was the only thing i couldnt find at walmart.

    Paint and tail chop

    All of my supplies for the entire paint project were less than $50 total. I guess it would have been more if this were a metal tank, but since it was plastic, i just used rattle cans from walmart. the green was one of the camo green paints they have with the rest of the spray paints, and there...

    wont start

    what he is suggesting is to take the carb off and check the jets, in the bottom section of the carb. if you plan to try this, i recommend searching youtube for "buell blast carb" or "cv40 carb" and watch how to take it apart. if you do take it apart, be cautious with the screws as they strip...

    Thumper will idle all day long, any throttle and she dies.

    When i found out what the issue was, i was kicking myself in the ass all week long. if you take the main jet out of the carb, underneath it sits a small silver sleeve that should come up into the throat of the carb, it will go in either way you want to put it in, but only one way works. the...

    Paint and tail chop

    The first winter I owned my thumper, I kept it in our garage. We had a boatload of snow that winter, and the roof collapsed, one of the support beams landed on the tail of my bike. I had looked at getting a new tail, but somethin just didnt seem right about it. Your bike should be a reflection...
