New to Buells - Love my XT!

[lotusexcelle]

So here she is - Brunhildë. '08 XB12XT. Wrapped headers, goofy windshield (changing to a Madstad setup shortly), and an issue running right. I'll update photos and such as I tweak things here and there.

So far just 9300 miles but I'll be putting a lot more on as the summer drags on. Waiting on my Madstad rig and a TPS to arrive before I take her out again, though. For now just new plugs and wires. Also - she's had Amsoil in her since she was first picked up by the original owner and I don't plan on switching. I run Amsoil in my car and *love* it.

Alll righty just did the breather reroute. Plugs (NGK iridiums) and wires from Magnecor were put in at the same time. I'll post pics later - have a few more things to tidy up this morning first.

She's shy of 10k but I'll be doing an oil change too (Amsoil, as mentioned). TPS arrives today and I can't wait to go take her down the highway to reset everything!

Also I have a cable on the way to run ECMspy/Tunerpro. THAT should be some fun.

I've seen some other mods on this board that I'm interested in doing but don't want to leave it sitting in the garage all summer so those might come later/time permitting/raining like crazy type of day.

Oh I almost forgot! I have the EBR 6mm front rotor with upgraded hardware kit on her too. Haven't had a chance to really try it out yet but the new hardware is supposed to do wonders for heat transfer and anti-wobble-shaky-crap.

Taking suggestions for next mod!

Here is a pic of my reroute. The color of the drain body is roughly equal to that of the engine covers. Works pretty well overall, I think.

I'm doing my breather re-route tonight! I have everything but the compressor air/oil separator. Where did you get yours?

 

[lotusexcelle]

Harbor Freight. 7 bucks.

Nice bike! Welcome to the forum!

Check out my site for some axle sliders and my new pulley cover. They would both look good on there and the sliders will add some protection as well! All parts in stock! Use the "buellxb" discount code at checkout for a few bucks off!

Ride safe!
