    200mm tire recommendations?

    Long term update! I bought dannenvance's bike years ago. It's my 2nd bike, so it doesn't get a lot of mileage. Just twisty roads on nice weekends and a few rides to work on Fridays. The 200 tire (when compared to my brothers 1125cr on oem size tires) is much slower to lean in, but more steady. I...

    Motorcycles in HOV Lanes

    In Houston, those are toll lanes. Doesn't matter what you are in/on... you pay to use them. Also, Motorcycles are allowed in HOV lanes... but the diamond lanes marked "buses only" downtown are still off limits. These aren't HOV.... they are metro bus lanes.

    EBR offer

    Can't sell what you can't produce ;) Price should match their production volume (as far as good business model) But yes, I've expected prices to drop as production continues. That's only logical.

    2015 BuellXB Calendar Thread (SUBMIT YOUR PICS HERE)

    Just a thought... should this be limited to landscape photos? Not sure how much editing you plan to do, or having multiple bikes share a photo.

    Home made custom 'Corvette' exhaust for XB

    So, I point people here anytime they ask about "my" exhaust... since i bought this bike awhile ago. I get TONS of compliments (from all sorts of bike riders) about the exhaust... everyone loves it. I THOUGHT I'd added my video to the page, but I guess not. Here it is...

    Wrapped my Headers

    So.... with titanium wrap that's kinda old (couple years? I dunno... previous owner), when it starts to loosen up, can i just undo the end, unwrap it part way, and tighten it up? It has started to fray.... but they don't make a paint or sealer for the ti stuff. So I kinda don't want to...

    Bags/Luggage?

    Thanks.. probably out of production by now.... FS15 Carbon - came with a red clear/candy... matches PERFECT. My bags aren't waterproof, but they have covers you can buy for them. (though probably a hassle for daily use). They aren't "soft"... they hold the shape went empty. I think there's a...

    Engine Cases and Covers

    Near Houston, Texas. I've only watched ebay for ~ 2weeks, but haven't seen any. I didn't know if there was an alternative I should be also looking for.

    High Bar Kit?

    Thanks for the input. Seems like I've seen that somewhere before. I'm not sure about the LSL bars with 1 1/8 center, but my LSL Superbike Low bars (on my 650r) were quite wide... but had plenty of space to trim them down. I think I moved controls in ~1.5in each side (only trimmed 1/2in but...

    Engine Cases and Covers

    My brother has an 1125 thats been dropped on the left, and the engine case is ground down pretty good. Usable... but ugly. Are there any sources for new or used engine side cases? Maybe from another rotax motored bike? What about covers to hide the damage and future protection? I've seen the...

    High Bar Kit?

    Is there a benefit to the high bar kit over just buying MX or some other similar bars? LSL makes a few very similar too. Are cables hard to come across? Custom brake lines are cheap... but I'm not sure about the other lines.

    Does anyone object to me soldering this?

    If you solder, the solder may seep up the cable and leave a very stiff/solid section towards the end. Like NO flexibility. When I did a battery relocate on my truck I used an eyelet like this... It involved a torch, melting some solder into the "cap", then shoving the wire in. When searching...

    don't try cutting you're seat foam down

    Maybe this is why they charged an arm and a leg ;) I've easily pulled the cover from the foam on my 650r... actually had a thin plastic (like bag) between them.

    Anyone know exactly the 2010/ebr ecm cooling fan #s?

    Is there a way to tell what tuning you have based on listening to it? I kinda figured it was the fan whirring turning off as I slowed down (like a switch at ~15mph). With the RSS, I've only heard the fan after shut-off once in 3k+ miles.... in houston heat and traffic. 09 scg, though...

    Any modify or cut down an S seat?

    There is less padding in the scg. Comfort is an opinion though. Personally, I like the scg seat.... though I'm ~135-140lbs, fairly small build.... so I don't need a lot of space or cushion. I'd either try a stock scg, or find the most torn up one you can, trim the foam, and recover.
