    Philadelphia, PA Buell Dealer called me this AM

    Brian's HD in Langhorne, PA. 215-752-9400. Happy shopping...ask for the sales manager Dan - he's the one calling previous Buell customers about the 1125R's.

    Philadelphia, PA Buell Dealer called me this AM

    I'm buying a house in a couple of weeks and the mortgage company won't appreciate me taking out another loan in the meantime, so I thought I would pass this along to you guys that may be able to make the best of this opportunity: They have four 1125R's left (brand new) going for $6,500 each. I...

    Front brake issue

    The bike is a 2003 xb9r with 12,500 miles. I bought it used with 10,000 miles on it. It was stored in an unconditioned shed by the previous owner for five years and in my parking garage under a cover for the last year. The pads were replaced before I bought it. The brake lever does not feel...

    Front brake issue

    Hopefully somebody can help me out here... When I pull my front brake, I get about 25-30% of full on braking up to a certain 'sticking' point. Once I go past the sticking point I get about 75%-85%. There is a noticeable difference in the amount of force I need to exert on the lever to get...

    Danny Eslick

    Thank god for Tivo/DVR, I have been watching entirely too much racing - MotoGP, World Superbike and AMA Daytona Sportbike and Superbike. Eslick and Spies are both sick riders. Eslick started that last race in 10th and still won with that ridiculous wheelie to the finish line. AMA's last race...

    ESLICK SWEEPS AMA PRO MID-OHIO DAYTONA SPORTBIKE RACES

    I think they added 15 lbs. to the 1125R's to compensate for the extra power too. ;)

    Where/How to carry that 2nd Helmet?

    I've got this backpack with the "hidden helmet pocket". It works great for commuting to work. I'm not sure how riding would be while wearing the backpack with a helmet stored in it. http://www.kneedraggers.com/details/TourMaster_Cortech_Backpack--58-TM05-1.html

    Introduction - New to me XB12R

    Bitter rod - I have the upgraded rear seat like the one shown above - the previous owner of my bike included it in the sale. I think it's called the touring pillion seat - it doesn't look like he ever used it. My wife will probably never ride on the back of my bike so if you'd like shoot me an...

    Gas fill-up question

    I've got an '03 xb9r. It's my first bike and I apologize in advance for the newb question: I usually fill up immediately after my gas light comes on (within 5 miles). I put about 2 gallons in before the auto shutoff kicks in at the pump. When I look at the gas level, it's 3-4" below the...

    Americade - 8 hrs. on my Firebolt?

    Ridendude - Thanks for the info. I adjusted the suspension settings a couple of weeks ago and it made a significant difference. The most pronounced change was that the previous owner of my bike had the rear spring preload setup for a 150 pound rider - which I am not. Once I adjusted it for a...

    Americade - 8 hrs. on my Firebolt?

    I installed the custom seat for my firebolt from buellparts.net a couple of weeks ago. Huge improvement over the six year old stock seat I took off. ridendude - What kind of adjustments can be made to the stock clutch lever? The effort it takes to pull the lever gets tiresome in stop and go...

    Americade - 8 hrs. on my Firebolt?

    My bike's an '03, I put 1,500 miles on it from the 10k the previous owner had on it so no break-in to worry about. I ride with a bunch of 50 year olds who require frequent bathroom breaks, which is good because it gives me a chance to fill my tiny gas tank and stretch out every 100 miles or so.

    Americade - 8 hrs. on my Firebolt?

    This is my first season riding. I bought my bike last October and have put about 1,500mi on it so far. I'm planning on going to Americade with a bunch of Harley guys I ride with. Am I crazy to do 8 hrs each way on my '03 XB9R (Philadelphia, PA to Lake George, NY)?

    How to get Buell T-shirts?

    I just bought the same shirt off buellparts.net along with a couple others. The service was great and the shipping was free and fast.

    used firebolt

    I did the same thing, cash advance on a 0% credit card. My card has no interest for a year. Paid $4,000 for my bike. I send $350 a month and plan to have the bike paid off before the standard interest rates kicks in.
