    Bike left me with a 1.2 mile walk home...Still scratching my head...

    The 1st time I tested the switch, the IGN fuse was blown. It was the smallest "blown" portion of a fuse I've ever seen...I missed it 3 or 4 times when checking it. Once the fuse was replaced, the kill switch would cycle the fuel pump and the check engine light, but the starter switch would not...

    Bike left me with a 1.2 mile walk home...Still scratching my head...

    Appreciate all the help and suggestions...it was the kill switch. Retested with the new one I had bought last year and it turned right over. Cheers!

    Bike left me with a 1.2 mile walk home...Still scratching my head...

    Quick update...found the IGN fuse to be blown after careful examination. It was the smallest "blown" fuse I've ever seen, lol. Once replaced, the CEL and fuel pump now cycle, but the starter switch is still not operating when thumbed. I ran out of time for the night, but will keep looking. I...

    Bike left me with a 1.2 mile walk home...Still scratching my head...

    2007 xb12stt with almost 16k miles 1st proper ride of the season after getting it back together from a clutch change last week, and literally a mile from home I change lanes into the left turn lane and the bike just dies. When turning the key on, the lights still work, gauges sweep, horn beeps...

    Transmission Fluid

    I've been using M1 20w50 in both holes since I've had the bike with no issues. And, IIRC, the chain free play should be measured/adjusted when the bike is up to operating temps....the spec is 1/8" to 1/4" of free play.

    Spark Plug Recommendations

    another vote for NGK DCPR9EIX...installed them when I swapped my rocker box gaskets and the bike ran noticeably smoother.

    hawk exhaust and a ecm change

    Correct 50, AFAIK he can't flash 08+ ECMs. Mine is a 07 STT...

    hawk exhaust and a ecm change

    Agree with glenn...I did the same thing. Sent my exhaust and ecm to Randy and he flashed his tune. Been running like a champ since I installed both. I have the exhuast, ecm and a k&n installed, along with the breather reroute.

    Fuel line clip

    I had the same thing happen when I did my engine rotation. I ended up replacing the entire line since I couldn't source the clip by itself.

    wet spots

    +1 for Rocker gaskets needing a replacement... I had to do mine last winter. Followed the excellent write-ups on here for the engine rotation and it ended up being a snap. I've torn into plenty of car/truck motors, but this was the first time tearing into a motorcycle. Now my engine is...

    WTB xb12s Primary Cover, shifter assembly, right peg, turn signal

    I've got a primary cover from my 07, but it has a small hole in it that could be repaired...and it's the stock color, not black. PM me if you're interested as I'd let it go pretty cheap.

    Anodizing front forks query

    I've seen someone on here DLC coat the shiny part and it turned out pretty decent. I think that's the only real option given that part has to interact with the fork seals.

    once more...Lightning Bikini fairing

    Thanks for digging up the older info :-) How is the wind protection with it installed? Noticeably less buffeting and wind fatigue?

    Photo Glamour Shoot

    Looking good man! You don't happen to live in Escanaba/Gladstone area, do you? That's where I'm originally from and thought I saw an 1125 similar to yours when I was up there for the 4th of July. Saw you waiting at the light by the Buck Inn maybe...

    Buell riders-Chicago/napperville area

    I'm down in the Plainfield area. I used to live up in Naperville and actually rode quite a bit around Fermi and the St Charles area, but never actually rode into Fermi. Might have to take a cruise back up there sometime. What I really need is to find some roads that aren't just a straight...

    XB12STT Seat Options

    I doubt you'll find anything that lowers the seat height that much on an STT. The only way to get what you seem to be looking for would be a suspension drop, but to do it right you would need bits off an S or SCG. Slipping the front tubes would not be ideal for keeping the geometry in check.

    primary cover

    ASB sells a black one for both the 03-06 and 07+ bikes. That's where i got mine for my 07 STT and it fit perfect. Just remember to pick up a new shaft seal as it wasn't included whit the new cover.
