I brought my minty lightening to a harley mechanic to have the 8000km service done and it seemed to have less power and just didnt feel right... after driving 100km i checked the primary chain tension and it was very tight at operating temperature... Could this effect the engine in any way what so ever...
It sounds a bit different kind of a shhhhh noise, but this is my first Buell and not sure what sounds are normal...
Any advise would be great, thanks...
wow do i ever love this bike... I have been driving bikes since i was 7 years old, dirt bikes, crusers, racers, and this exceeds all of them by far...
Cheers to all the other Buellers out there.[up]
