    Name this bolt / where did it come from

    Awesome! I think you are right. I removed the back half of the cover about 5 years ago and therefore have that bolt left over. Lost and found bolt.......

    LED for dashboard

    I did a little experimenting. I sanded the face of the LED, glued a clear lego on top, used hot glue, and used super glue in various combinations. Sanding the face of the led gave a noticeable improvement in hotspotting. Sanding it and then letting a drop of superglue dry on the face was the hot...

    Name this bolt / where did it come from

    2009 XB12R, putting bike back together after polishing the plastics up, found this bolt in a bag labeled front fender. I can't figure out where it came from, if its an extra, or even if is for the bike. Any idea's?

    Refinish?

    Think the rattle ran will stick? It looks good. I like it. Are you going to change the color of the primary?

    Refinish?

    I like the decal! And I don't drink so that idea is out. I like the idea of food. Maybe order a nice steak or smoked barbeque lunch to his work sometime.

    Cooter sells a bike

    Does that include a free bottle of lube? Even like the little sample packs? They staple it to the paperwork when they hand it to you! :eek: Last year I paid $265 to register my bike for 5 years and full coverage insurance runs around $90-100 a year on it. I feel fortunate.

    Refinish?

    A friend of mine who runs a body shop is polishing up my plastics (front fender, airbox cover, front fairing, tail fairing, and lower chin spoiler) for me and buffing out all the scratches. He doesn't want any money to do it but I want to pay him for the work. What do you think is a fair price?

    Cooter sells a bike

    Wait a minute! If you have a vehicle you haven't registered in a few years you have to pay a penalty just to register it again! And a ridiculous huge penalty! That makes no sense. You buy a vehicle and now have to pay a ridiculous penalty for something someone else did? WTF! Whether a vehicle is...

    LED for dashboard

    Its good but not perfect as you can see. I thought about trying to put glue, tape, frost tint, diffuser, or something on the LED face to disperse the light more but it doesn't bother me enough to pursue. I have a few extra LEDs. Maybe I will play around with it. IDK. I think having the short LED...

    LED for dashboard

    Oddly enough I just swapped to red LEDs last night. LOL. I have a few LEDs left over if you are interested. I purchased T3 neo wedge LED bulbs and they fit same as stock. Remove factory bulbs and twist in LED bulbs. Had to buy a pack of 10. You need 3.

    What did you do for your Buell today?

    I am not sure. I don't really use ECMSpy. I look up the data on ECMSpy website for my EEPROM (BUEZD), use a hex/dec/binary converter, edit the hex data manually, and then burn it manually to the ECM. For the shift light I turned it on by changing 36C from 00 to 81 to turn on the shift light and...

    What did you do for your Buell today?

    Yesterday I got the factory shift light option going..... The ECM has a factory shift light option but it is not utilized. Instead they use the start interlock so you can't start the bike in gear and crash. But I disabled the start interlock, used the wire from the ECM to be the ground for LED...

    What did you do for your Buell today?

    Finally got around to installing my LED voltage gauge. After the initial install it was too bright. Went to a local tint shop, got a piece of 35% scrap, and tinted the LED display. Much better. Next I have some LED backlights on order and a shift light. With the big bore kit I find I am still...

    NRHS Stage 2 for 07 XB12R

    I am running the stock timing map right now. Looking through old posts it looks like I played around with timing about 10 years ago, wasn't satisfied with any changes I made or the race timing maps, and went back to stock. I have the 30 degree reverse dome pistons with a target compression ratio...

    Cooter sells a bike

    Wow! You are a better man then I am! Doubt he will be back. I meet people at a parking lot across the street from my house. I don't bother until they are sitting there and ready. Eliminates all the snowflakes you get from CL and FB. Crazy how flaky people are. Text me when you get there and I...

    NRHS Stage 2 for 07 XB12R

    Did you guys change your timing at all from stock? I have left mine stock but Hammer Performance suggested Harley stock maps may be too aggressive for the big bore kits due to the higher compression.

    Engine oil level question

    2.5 quarts.... If its on the dipstick you are good. When cold the oil may be draining from the swing arm back into the crankcase sump creating a lower reading. Check oil right after the engine was on for best accuracy.

    NRHS Stage 2 for 07 XB12R

    Nice catch! I don't have my old laptop with all my old information to look this up. Going off what I posted long time ago. Just did a BWB search and saw you were right. I swapped from the FP10153 (3.4 bar) to 135-22 (4 bar). As far as a XL1200... Dump a 100 lbs off that thing so it can handle...

    NRHS Stage 2 for 07 XB12R

    Do you find the CR (or an 1190) is hard to ride legally or on public roads? As in you always feel like it wants to be unleashed and bam you are hitting speed limits and/or traffic? Feel like you are neutered. One of the reasons why I enjoy the XB so much is all that torque down low. Pulls like a...
