I'm still waiting to hear if they updated anything on the 2016 bikes? Or just lowered the price to blow out all the old bikes...Hmmm, Color is not an upgrade...

I strongly doubt there were any significant upgrades, but hopefully they've picked up on some owner complaints, like bodywork cracking, and corrected those. "Bold new colors" is probably the main thing.

Edit- Just read this on Facebook from someone who was at the factory yesterday: "Same thing as 2014 but with evolving electronics & part updates."

TEABAG....that is a great vid. anybody that doesn't own a buell product at least once in their lifetime is an idiot.

 

[vicenzajay]

There's something 'organic' about Buells...not sure how else to describe it.

 

[TPEHAK]

Erik Buell personal motorcycle chain tension. I did not know those motorcycles have idler pulley.

Erik Buell personal motorcycle chain tension. I did not know those motorcycles have idler pulley. Once a Buell, Always a Buell

Thanks for sharing TEPHAK, You get mild whine on decel from the pulley,

Per Dean Adams ,Set it at 3/4" total movement from slack to tight with 30 lbs of pull upward tension. Use a fish scale. You should get mild whine on decel, but none on acceleration. The chain will move around no matter what, but I checked mine as it was set from the factory, along with actually checking Erik's personal SX a couple of weeks ago and they're set the same. You'd think it was way too tight, it's not.

Anything over 25 mm slack will eat into the slider and eventually the swingarm. I've done it.

 

[Cooter]

Ya, they set them pretty 'tight' compared to other bikes. To clarify, he means exactly what you posted "3/4" of upward movement". Don't confuse that with 'total slack'.
That is still close enough to use the factory spec of 25-30mm total slack (up and down) and I think they equal each other:up:

25.4mm=1"...
