    2006 XB12R in GA

    Anyone in the MD/VA area interested in this? I'll be up that way next month probably, and I can throw it on the trailer with my Ninja.

    2006 XB12R in GA

    Sorry to say, but I wanted something a little faster and more comfortable for long trips, so I got a Ninja 1000. Buell is up for sale now, located in Augusta, GA. I can also deliver within reasonable distance. Contact me through the email or text listed in the Craigslist ad, as I don't log in...

    Buell Mechanics

    Steering head bearings are pretty simple, as long as you have a motorcycle jack or I sometimes use an engine hoist to suspend the bike while you remove the forks. You can just slowly tap them out with a long screw driver and a hammer. Put the new bearings in the freezer before you install them...

    Dragon?

    If the weather is good, I'd be down to go next weekend. The 18th is my birthday, and I can't think of a better way to spend the day than riding :D

    reliability?

    My XB only has 15,000 miles and it seems like I'm always having to work on it for something. I recently had to take both heads to get an exhaust stud drilled out, and then when taking it apart I broke the front isolator mount because the adapter sleeve was siezed to the isolator bolt. Very...

    Exhaust straps

    I ordered this one for the front: http://www.mcmaster.com/#5312k19/=twsasp Only $6, shipping was like $6 too, so I ordered a few in case I break another one.

    Army here, Intel. 2009-present. 3 years at Ft. Meade, now at Ft. Gordon. DJ, you get healed up yet? We still need to get up to the Dragon!

    real fast clicking sound when starting

    Also check the ground wires going to the frame! A while ago mine wouldn't start, so I bought a new battery and still nothing. Turns out it was just a loose bolt where the top of the engine mounts to the frame, right under the airbox. After that I ran a piece of 10 gauge wire from this bolt...

    Best helmet to helmet intercom?

    I use the Scala Rider G9. I can heat music clearly without it being so loud that I can't hear anything around me. When I had a low end Icon helmet, there was a ton of wind noise and it was hard to talk to another rider, but now that I have a Scorpion Exo-1100 it is just like having a face to...

    Dragon?

    If you can't make it in August, I'd probably down to go again in October!

    Dragon?

    I was thinking a day trip out on a weekend. I'm free pretty much any weekend, as long as the weather is good. Is there any good place there to park my Jeep? I was going to put the bike on my trailer and tow it up there.

    Dragon?

    I'm not afraid of riding alone, I just prefer riding with others. Just seeing if anyone was planning on going that wouldn't mind meeting up.

    Dragon?

    Anybody planning on heading out to the Tail of the Dragon anytime soon? I missed the big meet up earlier this year because I was out of the state for training. I want to go really bad, but don't have anyone here in GA to go with. I've never ridden the road before, and I'd like to not ride alone.

    plasti dip

    My XB wheels are plasti-dipped with the anthracite grey and the clear over top. Got about 5K miles on it since they were painted and they still look good. When my tires need replaced I'm going to take them to get powder coated though, the paint was just a cheap fix (had 1 gold wheel and 1 silver).

    fork oil change

    I did it for the first time a few months ago. It wasn't that hard at all. I just followed a video of a guy doing it on youtube. Once you figure out how the first one comes apart you'll be fine, and they go back together easy. From Amazon, I ordered the Motion Pro fork seal driver, fork seal...

    Savannah buellers

    I'm up in Augusta. I rode my bike down there in October. Rode around for a little bit, then got a flat tire on the highway 20 minutes into the ride back. Had to wait 4 hours for a buddy to rent a trailer and get down there. It's a really nice ride though, if there's more people wanting to meet...

    Here's my story

    Yea, I only owned it a week, I wasn't about to part it out! I had a helmet and gloves on when it happened. Now I almost always ride with my Icon jacket and jeans. That road rash sucks!
