    '04 Firebolt 1200 electrical problem

    I noticed the needles were jumping around more than normal. Is that what you're referring to?

    '04 Firebolt 1200 electrical problem

    Thank you Lunatic. Will do. I have to pull it out anyway. When I bought the bike 2 years ago the guy said it was new. But I'm wondering how "new" it was. It's always had a hard start with a delay before cranking over.

    '04 Firebolt 1200 electrical problem

    Hey Cooter, should I pull that bolt and replace it? The one to the frame. It was red hot. Afraid if I tried to tighten it it would break. There's a chance I could get it out easier.

    '04 Firebolt 1200 electrical problem

    TBone, I have no idea how to check for shorts. It's just been sitting besides a few start up and warm up for nearly 3 months. I need to ride more than my favorite bike more often and plan to do so this winter. Love Florida living. Thank you Cooter. That's what I was hoping. The positive was...

    '04 Firebolt 1200 electrical problem

    Well, I've had a good run. 2 years with her and hardly any problems. I was out of town for 7 weeks and hadn't ridden her in a few weeks before I left. A few weeks ago I started it up and she seemed fine. Not so today... First it was a real hard start. I figured it was from setting. Then I...

    Why Buy a Buell Firebolt XB12R?

    I love mine. Kinda of stumbled upon it and then waited for the price to become fair. Mine's an '04 and the previous owner took very good care of it. I haven't done a thing besides swap the rear master cylinder thanks to a forum member selling me one incredibly cheap. This place is great and...

    Sexy @$$ wife!

    My wife asked for me to take that pic of her the day I swallowed a sword and rode my bolt down the drag strip. She drove my 4 Runner and had my best man in the back filming. She had a blast flying down the drag strip in my truck. I'm a lucky, lucky man.. https://youtu.be/c1_s1L-I4QA

    Sword Swallow Firebolt Record

    Here is the full video of me swallowing a sword and riding my Buell Firebolt @ the Orlando Speed World Dragway. First person in recorded history to do this and I'm pretty chuffed about it. https://youtu.be/c1_s1L-I4QA

    XB12Ss slow crank?

    I'm so happy I found this thread. Thank you lunatic for calming my nerves. The guy I bought mine from said it was normal but the other night at the drag strip I turned it off and on more than I ever have and really started being concerned with the delay. Relieved to know it's normal.

    Drag racing????? 1/4 mile times and speeds...

    It's a lot of fun. Cheap date night with my bike. I wanted to go to the 1/8 mile track but the V twin guys convinced me that the 1/4 is a little safer with a nice long finish. The best advice I was given was "Take off like your at a stop light and then get on it. Matching clutch release with...

    Drag racing????? 1/4 mile times and speeds...

    Okay, that's what I was guessing but didn't know for sure. I was such a newbie. Went knowing that but I like doing new things and things that scare me. This was both. I want to go back tonight but can't. I'm hooked. The track is going to let me do my stunt there next Sunday. I'll be the...

    Drag racing????? 1/4 mile times and speeds...

    This is an old thread but reading this is pretty much all I knew about drag racing before I went tonight. I also didn't understand a damn thing about it but two really nice Buell guys showed me the ropes and were very nice. First run I took it cautious. Second run I got greedy and popped a...

    *NEW* - Upload Photos Of Your Buell

    I've been swallowing swords in my show for 9 years. I've always wanted a solo Guinness World Record. I have several but they are Group records. My father passed away 2 and a half years but before he did he told me, "If there is anything in this world that you want to do, don't put it off...
