    Black Renthal Streetfighter Bars and Bar Ends

    All, Have a set of black bars and bar ends, never been opened. I was going to install them on my Ss but never got around to it. Have pics if you want them, but they aren't great - hard to get a clear picture through the packaging. I'll try and post a link to the info on the Renthal site later...

    disgusted with our own government

    What would be the point of having freedom of speech if you can't be in opposition to someone else? That would be the exact opposite of freedom of speech, and exactly the way totalitarian governments around the world treat their citizens. As for yelling "fire" in a crowded theater... that comes...

    disgusted with our own government

    >you think james madison was thinking that people should be allowed to protest at a military members funeral. Quick answer "yes". I'm with Delta on this one. That's why Madison wrote "Congress shall make NO (emphasis mine) law... abridging the freedom of speech..." It's a slippery slope to let...

    **Why Did You Buy Buell? (Please Post Why)** Results will be Tallied for Buell info.

    I like to make my own decisions; I try not to listen to the conventional wisdom - sometimes to my disadvantage over the years. My two motorcycle mentors are very anti-Buell and while I respect their knowledge and riding skills very much, I always thought there was something special about Buells...

    Frank Buckles, last WWI vet died today

    >Haven't read it, but I just ordered it, $8.06 shipped. If you don't like it, I'll pay you back... sneaking suspicion I won't have to. I'll keep an eye on Ardolino's book. You are right and even more so with Iraq and Afghanistan - we need a record of what you did, especially since such a small...

    Frank Buckles, last WWI vet died today

    "The conditions in all the past wars to include Vietnam are in most cases unimaginable by our means today. Yeah I have seen some of the unspeakables, gone 3 weeks without a shower, and only averaged 1 meal a day for the entire time I was in Iraq but I never had to stack bodies, have no shower...

    Still have it, but was planning on keeping it for a while. Money talks, however.

    6100 on the clock what to check?

    If you have a 12 check the exhaust cable - mine was a bit loose at 5000 miles. Not in the manual but I would check your header nuts and any cover bolts that you can get to - I noticed some weeping from various covers at 5K from fasteners that had loosened. Hit all the stuff in the manual -...

    IM FREAKING OUT MAN!!!

    Patience, patience, patience. When you feel yourself getting mad, take a break, count to ten, whatever. Yeah, sometimes they will do things intentionally to make you mad, but generally it's because they want attention or they just don't know how else to express themselves at the time - not to be...

    Thanks wiz. I'm having trouble picturing this but I'm sure it will make more sense when I do it. One of those "ah ha" moments.

    How to: Rotate your engine : With Pics!

    wiznut, great job. I'll ask the dumb questions... Front isolator bolt - you mention it should back out by hand if everything is aligned properly... what is the solution if it doesn't? Also, you mention only removing the bolt and say for a full engine rotation you'd need to remove the isolator...

    XR1200X

    I haven't ridden one yet, but looking at the specs I keep thinking "it should be 100 lbs lighter, have better cornering clearance, and another gallon of gas..." And then I walk to the garage and see my XB12Ss and say "oh yeah, they USED to have that..."

    seat hard to open

    I had problems with my seat too... and then I was looking through my manual and it says to pop the seat lock (rear of seat releases) and then with with your hand at about the middle of the seat, PRESS firmly against the seat in an up and back motion - it actually works pretty well on mine. I...
