    Anybody tried "Angel Eyes" (BMW) headlights on Lightnings?

    i know this is an old post but i was down in bike week earlier this month and saw some r6s with this headlight setup. I had been thinking of doing this myself. Hey josnow: did u ever get them the way you liked? Getting a good set of instructions with a step by step would be awesome[up]

    Buell Top Speed :-)

    Recorded by a Florida trooper a little over 1 week ago during Daytona Bike Week 2009, on a completely stock Xb9r I did 115mph. The bike was perfectly straight, no wobble no nothing, i was completely tucked looking through my Wiley X's no helmet, no jacket. The bike had plenty more to go. An...

    cant get it to start

    ITS ALIVE!!!!!!!!! I replaced the battery, the plugs, the fuel and the wires and now it runs. When the dealership put on the wires they were those out together yourself ones, and the DumbSh** mechanic who did it didn't put the coil boot on properly so after the ride home in the truck the wire...

    cant get it to start

    okay i figured it out, the wire for the rear cylinder on the coil side is loose, but it wont snap on, i dont think its even making contact with the connector inside the wire. It doesnt snap on like it should, the wire snaps onto the plug just fine but the coil it just kinda slips on and off...

    is it possible that the fuel filter is clogged? bad fuel maybe some debris from sitting got sucked up in the filter and that is restricting the flow causing the backfires?

    cant get it to start

    Checked the wires and the fuses, all fine. Replaced the battery, and now I'm draining the fuel. Is there a way to partially foul your plugs? Should I just get new plugs to be sure or does anyone think the HD ones are still fine? Correct me if I'm wrong but if the bike is back firing when...

    okay, so i got the plugs out, they look fouled, so i'm gonna replace them, but i also checked the gap and they were gaped out to .045 which is way too big according to the book. The fuel is going to get drained tonight and replaced with fresh fuel. hopefully that will work. I will also pick...

    cant get it to start

    okay so i after work today i took the air box off and the side scoop, I get to the coil and the plugs, the wires are fine, nice and tight, on both sides. The wires look exactly the same as the last time i pulled them out, so I'm skeptical about the dealership actually replacing them, like they...

    alright im gonna check the plugs, is it possible that while it was sitting the coil went bad? Cause the dealership changed the plug wires, or so they said. i dont know about the plugs though, i'm sure they at least cheked them.

    wtb: instrument panel frame

    I need the metal piece behind the instruments, its the piece of pot metal behind the front fairing, the turn signals attach to it and it holds it all together. Anyone know where I can get my hands on it? I went down last summer been looking for it all winter, still haven't found it.
