> oil pump drive gear. If it has not been upgraded do it while the heads are off.
20k original miles. Where is the oil pump drive gear ? i dont have a manual yet. guess i have some looking to do. The forum wouldnt let me post pictures on my initial post. Kept throwing em out.
> Im guessing its not and when the original teeth break you have problems!
random when they break, right?
> Also, verify what primary chain tensioner you have and if its the original, upgrade that as well.
Ill have to go look that up, and how to.

That parts wonky, I could tell.. it had a broken aftermarket muffler. I picked up the cheapest stock muffler I could find, im semi-regretting that. I have Remus on bmw 1200cc and I love it.
I ordered a used CNC machined front motor mount. This ones was cracked. motor was hanging a bit.
>and XB rocker boxes.
>The XB rocker boxes are a 2 piece design instead of the 3 pieces. They also eliminate the sides breather holes / unbrella valves and use >top mounted PCV valves-
Thats ****ing sweet. Too late though, I already ordered the new side breather kit.
This builds on a budget. I have 8 bikes. It was a $500 buell that needed a few hundred in work turning out to be $1000 in parts and mucho labor. I dont mind, sexy ass bike and it looks like if I ever sell it, around here they are bringing $3500-4000.
As for the EFI.... get yourself a copy of ECMSpy and load a race map once you upgrade the exhaust and air filter.
im looking, that is a bit of ordering, Ill start working on it, I love flashing & chipping cars.
nobody sells it all put together already ?
Good luck on the project!
THANKS !
