    Stranded

    Thanks Barrett I’ll let the shop guy know it’s possible…it sounds like he has a sportster in the back we can rob a clutch from so maybe after he gets back if we can do some tinkering.

    Stranded

    Well boys I hopped on the 07 xb12s and road from ND to TX! Everything went well and it took two days but on the way back I broke a bold on my shifter lever…it was broke off inside the primary and I couldn’t shorten the linkage enough to use the higher hole so I just babied it out in 5th gear and...

    Cross country with a Lightning?

    Yup, it's really not all that bad! I just got back in July from a 4500 mi road trip! Longest day was 750 miles. If you stay on 2 lane back roads and take a 5 min break every 50 miles even if you don't think you need one right away (you'll thank me later) it's doable.

    Fun with Cooter!

    Looks like an awesome ride! If it's not to far out of your way you should try catch highway 12 from Torrey UT to Tropic UT...it's not the quickest route but it was one of the better roads I found on my trip. Safe travels!

    I'm in trouble!

    Yeah I'm pretty sad I didn't get to finish out the trip though...I still had 2 days of Yellowstone NP and the Beartooth Pass on the list. Oh well I guess I'll have to settle for the around 4500 miles I already got in...I dont' really know how many miles because my gages went out in sturgis and I...

    I'm in trouble!

    Hey guy thanks for the help! I tried for the vice grips on the wire but it was just to hard of a clutch pull and not enough slack...but I got lucky and a buddy of mine wasn't far away with his pickup in Butte MT so I road around 200 miles with out a clutch. Just made sure that I parked facing...

    I'm in trouble!

    Right at the lever...I don't think I'm going to be getting one so I'll probably have to ride with out one

    I'm in trouble!

    Hey guys I need some help! I'm on my way back on a trip from ND to San Diego and I snapped a clutch cable in Salmon ID...anyone know anything I can do to rig it together? I have to make 1000 miles by Tuesday morning to get back to work in time. If not that are there any local buellers that might...

    What to check before 5000 mi ride?

    Well sorry for reopening an old thread but I'm exactly 7 days out from take off and getting way to damn excited! After a misshap last sunday with a little over confidence going into a corner and an argument with a small patch of gravel I came out pretty lucky with a busted mirror, shifter lever...

    Also if you want to see something interesting take the highway straight north out of Regent ND.

    Buelling across America!

    Looks like a Blast! You're going to be getting into some country with serious wind! Especially this weekend. No trees straight roads and wind. lol What route are you taking across ND?

    What to check before 5000 mi ride?

    Yeah Americade sounds better. This is just a bunch of small town bar hopping with a few events and a street dance at the end.

    What to check before 5000 mi ride?

    That sounds like a good trip! To bad you didn't wait a few weeks, Cavalier has a bike ride they call "Sturgis of the North" on Fathers Day Weekend. I've always been fishing with the old man but I hear it's a good time. I'll have Electrical/Duct tape for cuts. If I can't rub a little dirt on...

    What to check before 5000 mi ride?

    When I have the tires mounted and balanced I'll have the shop really look over the bearings and change if needed. Yeah I've done a 450 mile day mostly interstate but it wasn't all riding...I had an out of town meeting so it was split up with a 3 hour break in between. It really wasn't all that...

    What to check before 5000 mi ride?

    There're a few Buells in ND but all the roads are straight and flat in a grid so most go for HD. A quick ride from Cavalier and you can be in MN lakes country and there's some pretty good riding out there.

    What to check before 5000 mi ride?

    Thanks guys that sounds like a good list! How do I check wheel bearings? Just took the wheels off here to put on some Pirelli Angels. They say it's safer with good rubbers ���� I'll be taking off in June

    What to check before 5000 mi ride?

    I'm planning a longer ride that is starting to look like 5000 miles round trip. Starting in ND to San Diego in 3.5 days then take a random route back at slow pace(around 8-9 days). I'm not sure what all I should be replacing before the trip and don't want to be stuck on the side of the road real...

    WTB Hand Guard Mounting Posts

    Hi Guys, Does anyone have hand guard mounting posts? I'm trying to put some one a 12s and already bought the guards but they didn't come with the mounting posts. I thought about rigging something up but I don't really want to mess with my breaks. Thanks!
