To those of bountiful Buell knowledge, Please Help! I Got my '05 XB12Scg at the beginning of summer. In the last two months I have had endless electrical problems that are too much to describe. The dealer has been finding rubbing wires and blown fuses and loose connections all over the bike...

Mr dozer. I found the corbin site confusing myself when I was in the market for a seat. however, I believe the first two listed items at http://www.corbin.com/buell/ is exactly what you are looking for. They even have an option with a back support for the SS for your wife to be comfy. The...

Ha Ha, you want to hear about extreme distance riding.... check out http://www.ironbutt.com These guys are a glutton for punishment!!!

Well it turns out that my oil consumption was actually from a blown crank seal. All that oil I thought was burning was actually dumping into the primary. This goes back to topic because it could potentially be from a clogged breather. Will this reroute take care of this or would is an entire...

I've been having oil consumption problems lately starting at 3000 miles. Been reading on all the forums obsessively about it. Turns out my oil was leaking into the primary/transmission. This happens when the crank seal is broken. This happens when the crank breather is clogged or can't keep up...

Wise words, and much agreed. Just got my XB12S and learned the BS when dealing with HD pretty quick. But we wouldn't be Buellers if we were just another part of the pack. In the end, I say it's a small price to pay. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

off topic, but I just found out that the dealer mechanic messed up replacing the transmission seal when changing my fluid. I've been dumping oil into my bike all worried about thinking it was burning it and its just been leaking into the primary this whole time. Doesn't matter its the same damn...

STUPID MECHANIC! here's an update if anyone is still reading this thread. After riding today, started to hear rumbles from the primary. Shifting got stiff and the bike was loosing power. Checked the transmission fluid level and the oil started pouring out of the access panel. Seems the mechanic...

we'll good to see I got some response. I'd almost given up. Figured no one wanted to get into this can of worms. Well, from what I can tell, the seals weren't full seated yet. Talked to the two previous owners who had assured me they babied it. No hard riding. Got some other advice and seems I...

I posted this already in the mod's section but it should prob be here: So I just got my Buell xb12s couple months ago and I ride it a lot. It's my only vehicle; no car what so ever. I can average about 1000 miles a month and plan to take it across the country. Just noticed and read that they...

I got a cg seat in mint condition if you want it. It's pretty comfy and def lower than the select seat I got to replace it. Let me know if your interested.

Ha Ha! yeah, got the gel seat already. looks great! Windshield on the way. But I can't carry 4 quarts of Royal Purple with me to keep pouring in every couple days! Please tell me how to quench the thirst of my bike!

Just posted a question regarding oil burn before finding this thread. I plan to do this soon even if solely for the performance improvements, but does it also help reduce oil burn off?

So I just got my xb12s couple months ago and I ride it a lot. It's my only vehicle; no car what so ever. I can average about 1000 miles a month and plan to take it across the country. Just noticed and read that they tend to guzzle oil, especially the way I ride it. Up to a quart every 1k. Will...

thanks parts guy

sorry to burst your bubble but I'm pretty sure its a supermoto bike, which makes sense. search the web for buell supermoto and you can find a picture of the concept bike

So here is something I as a newbie need to know. Just got my 04 xb12cg with only 1,500 on it. First street bike I ever got and I don't think I could have picked a better bike. Growing up riding dirt bikes, I was accustomed to pocking around my bike figuring out how to work on it and fix it...

I just bought the gel seat for my xb12cg. If someone has the regular S and wants to lower their seat hight a little bit or they just need a replacement I will sell them the old seat in pristine condition. Name your price. I am moving across the country (on the bike) and will take any reasonable...

Anybody have one of those custom windscreens made by cee bailey's? I'm only going to use it for a cross country trip that I'm sure to do just once. Just don't want to drop another 100 bucks and don't have the time to wait for it. I'll take any color and pay whatever you think is reasonable. If I...
