    Jardine RT-1 - Stock ECM

    The QMI insert ( noise reduction cap) will kill the power delivery of the Jardine. No offense, but if you were going for a less noisy exhaust, you really chose the wrong pipe. The Jardine is like one of the loudest, if not the loudest, slip-on exhaust.

    Adding oil

    2009 Xb12. 9K. The bike runs great. I do not add primary oil in between changes, and I change both oils every change. Come to think of it, I do drain about 5-10mL of fluid from my engine breather reroute about every 300 miles. I'm not sure what the exact composition of that fluid is...

    Adding oil

    I find checking the oil level is something I need to do about 2-3 times a month, and I need to add about 50-100mL about 2-3 times before my next oil change. Where is the oil going and why is it going there so fast? Amsoil 20w50, 2-3k mile intervals, 2.5q engine, 1q primary. Checking on the...

    Anyone else's hands go numb while riding?

    Cruising at the 30 mph, I have difficulty identifying spatial relation of objects in my OEM mirrors due to the amount that they are vibrating. At WOT, approaching the rev limiter, the bike is like riding an earthquake.... I can't agree with the statement that the XB's are about on par with...

    Anyone else's hands go numb while riding?

    Gloves. Not all gloves are created equally. Sizes, stitching quality, fitment and comfort levels vary. I found that upgrading my gloves completely eliminated numbing. Stay away from sport oriented gloves. Look into soft, padded, leather gloves for big cruisers. Yes your XB9r has a sporty...

    What's wrong with my front brake?

    Should I replace with OEM rotor and pads, or is there upgraded hardware I can use to avoid having this problem again?

    What's wrong with my front brake?

    I get pulsing deceleration when I use the front brake. Why is that, and what can I do to fix it? Am I in danger?

    Odd motorist behavior

    There is a highway I drive regularly where the speed limit is 50mph and no one dares go above 60 b/c it is heavily policed. Going through with my car, I will always do about 60, and all the surrounding motorists will drive along and not pass. When I go through with the Buell, I will typically...

    It is extremely easy to find the OEM replacement. I typed in "Buell throttle tube" into google search engine and it was the third suggestion down. [confused] Can't decide if lazy or eager to fire off thread. http://www.americansportbike.com/shoponline/ccp0-prodshow/17397.html Strip the OEM...
