What did you do for your Buell today?

I did loose a blinker on te way down, fell off the right rear. Do you think. This could be the source of my blinker fluid leakage?

Definitely! [up] better patch that up or you'll be stuck turning left only!
 
I found my Buell a companion. While working I spotted a familiar front wheel poking out from under a tarp. After asking the owner If I could take a look I discovered a 98 s1w in pretty damn good condition. Its not mine yet.... But i have a feeling it will be!
 
Nj, why is your dyno so low? I know its stock 148hp which could be at the crank but do you really lose 29hp from the crank to the wheel? If so thats sad.

Isnt the 12r 110 roughly with a pipe?
 
Rode my 1125cr 1030 miles in about 17hours. Nj weather has me frozen and everything else is sore lol but totally worth it.
 
changed my XB colour scheme.
What you guys think?

damn, shining those headers up is a task.... i did not finish, but its on the list for things to do next time.....
 
My new ''correct'' foot pegs arrived today so I installed them and then I put a blue led 194 bulb in the parking light. The foot pegs that were on it when I got it had no drop at all, and from what I can tell the lightnings were supposed to have a 1in drop. I took it for a little ride and the new pegs are far more comfortable then the old ones.

Reinstalled the clubman bars on Lizzy, eventually i might swap everything (shorter brake, clutch and throttle cables/lines) and removed the belt guards, im going to ride around for a while and see if i like the look, if not i think ill get the CF ones from ASB. and cleaned all the bugs and crap off her as well as shined up the wheels!

brake/clutch lines stick out a bit but do not get in the way so ill see how i like the clubmans again and decide after a month so i can get some fluid and such.

I got home from work went on Ebay to Buell XB parts the first thing that came up was a XB select seat new in box with a buy it now price being sold by HD dealership in less then 60 seconds i bought it.It was like i won the lottery.
 
I think that I may do the same to my muffler but not whether to paint it black or something else,I may color match it with the red of my bike.
 
I think someone did that to their muffler, they painted it orange or blue I forget exactly. It didn't look too bad.

Also I swapped the throttle cables on Lizzy for the shorter ones for the clubman bars and actually got them to work the correct way the first time! Took about an hour to take the long ones out and put the short ones in. Im going to work on the clutch/brake lines whenever i get a chance to either tomorrow or friday.
