If you have any info on what parts are added aftermarket or not please let me know. I know a guy that is selling what he says is a 2000 x1 lightning with 2900 miles(that right 2,900.00) I'm attaching some picture with hope that i can get some answers about what has been done. The guy bought it this way, and knows nothing about it.

sorry didn't know which picture ul to use

it has an older steel swingarm from an S1.. not the newer X1 aluminum swingarm.

Looks like it has a penske rear shock, Storz steering damper, Buell Race header and muffler, PM wheels. I think thats the Buell race carbon air filter.

junk the power commander - POS.

Not sure what rearsets those are but aftermarket. Pegs look like buell pro pegs.

Chain conversion

No idea on the fuel tank cover... either modified OEM or some type of aftermarket. Aftermarket belly pan.

He is saying it has a problem idling, but when i started it it sounded fine, it did die after like 12 seconds, but it sound like the idle was way down below 900rpm. Does this model have a idle control knob?

pur_pony your bike has been my screensaver since i was looking for a buell to buy. how ironic!!! great looking bike man, i can only hope to get to that level!

thanks-

First 2 things i would do it remove the power commander and then do a TPS reset. Then load a copy of the Race tune using EMCSpy.

What do you need for the Emcspy? I still haven't gotten back to the guy yet. In your personal opinion is 2500.00 to much for this bike?

I would say thats a pretty good price... the bike looks slightly rough for 2900 miles but it has the PM wheels, Race exhaust and intake, what looks to be a penske shock.... The Shock and exhaust alone are with $1500+

I would say its a good deal... I still wonder though why the hell is has an older steel swingarm on it. Thats the first thing i would change along with removing the power commander.

You will need a copy of ECMSpy and a cable - can be found on ebay

Yeah, i have no idea why that swing arm is on it either. to me the stock swing arm looks shorter, so turn in and flick-a-bility would be better with a shorter wheelbase. But i'm not sure if its shorter.
