    Keep blowing ignition fuses

    Google would disagree. Bunch of these on the BadWeatherBikers forum. I'll take a look at the connector again as I may have pulled a different one.

    Keep blowing ignition fuses

    OK. Searching has shown me that this is a common problem with the XB's. I've done some of the troubleshooting steps. The fuse blows when I have the ignition relay in place. It does not when I remove the relay. I have swapped all the relays around so I'm fairly certain the relay isn't the...

    Lost entire guage cluster/signal lights today

    I'm thinking the possibility is 3. I'm actually waiting for a replacement turn signal right now. I'm still going to run the test on the VR.

    Lost entire guage cluster/signal lights today

    OK. Just ran out and checked the fuses. The ACC fuse was burnt out (thank you Buell for including spares). Cluster functioned as soon as I replaced the fuse. Worried though based on all the posts that came up in the search of voltage regulator problems, especially since my batter was completely...

    Lost entire guage cluster/signal lights today

    On the way to work this morning the entire guage cluster went out as well as the turn signals. I still have power to the headlights. Any ideas? Haven't looked over anything yet but might it just be a fuse? Speedo, RPM, all indicator lights, etc. are none functional as well as the turn...

    What size bolt for shift lever?

    Dang bolt fell out of my shift lever on the way home. Nothing like trying to get through town in 4th gear. Luckily I was able to save the inner shaft on the lever without that falling out as well. Does anyone know the size of the bolt that holds the lever to the primary cover? Any...

    Replacement headlight bucket from recall

    Managed to find one for $50. Hoping this doesn't happen with this one as well. Amazing how much difference it made one I turned the light on. Will be nice not to have to drive with the high beam on all the time.

    Replacement headlight bucket from recall

    OK. Got it. Thanks. I should have just taken care of it when the recall happened but my Buell dealer was a real pain in the ass to do anything with. :-/

    Replacement headlight bucket from recall

    Walter Brothers is telling me they need to sell me the whole headlight assembly ($98). Didn't they offer just the reflector as a separate part?

    Replacement headlight bucket from recall

    Thanks. Sent Walter Brothers an email. Don't need the entire assembly, just that metallic part.

    Replacement headlight bucket from recall

    Can anyone direct me to a dealer/etc. that would have the replacement headlight piece that was issued in the recall several years ago? Need to replace mine finally on my XB9R due to the metallic finish finally being fully removed.

    Vortex 827-50 Motorcycle Sprocket : 50 tooth - 530 chain

    Hey guys, I accidentally ordered the wrong sprocket for my chain conversion. I was already running a 520 setup and wound up getting a sprocket for a 530 setup. DOH!!!! Anyways, I have the sprocket listed on eBay if anyone is interested...

    Adjusting chain for chain conversion - how tight

    So even with the tensioner you're adjusting it to the same tension as a typical chain driven bike?

    Adjusting chain for chain conversion - how tight

    I've actually got the freespirits setup so I have the chain rub/etc. I ran quite a while on it previously but after 5 years wound up with sprocket wear. I think I wound up overtightening it at some point and it wore severely. I replaced both sprockets but seems like it's excessively loose as...

    Adjusting chain for chain conversion - how tight

    Hey guys, I was wondering with the chain conversion how tight eveyone is running their chain. It would seem with the idler sprocket that we shouldn't be running the chain as loose (1-1.5 inches of travel) as a regular chain bike. I think I may have had mine overtightened last time around and...

    Problem - need replacement front sprocket on my chain conversion

    I get what you guys are saying. I've already been running a chain conversion. What I'm saying is that the PBI 277 sprocket isn't even close to the current sprocket I'm running. The shop messed up in that I have a 520 chain and the sprocket should have been the 277x but it's not even fitting...

    Problem - need replacement front sprocket on my chain conversion

    I have the Free Spirits kit. Bought it back in 2006. Need to replace the front sprocket due to wear. Saw several folks here who have done chain conversions and they are using either the V-Twin sprocket or the PBI sprocket (277x). Local shop gave me a PBI sprocket but it turned out to be a...

    Could I lower my '03 XB9R with this spring kit?

    I just hunted down someone that had a xb9sl and we swapped suspensions (forks, rear spring AND KICKSTAND).
