What did you do for your Buell today?

[njloco]

I did this Aussie breather reroute set up not long after getting my 07 12XB SS, I have only put about 400 miles on it since then, I know, not very much but, I checked the air filter yesterday and with the exception of a small amount of oil film around the base of the rubber intake, there is nothing ! Also the paper air filter was totally dry.
I'll probably do it to my Ully next.

That's why I'm posting it up, I don't know if it will make any difference but, if that much oil was being sucked in, I would think it would leave more of a sign, especially in the intake, nothing, clean as a whistle !

Never heard of that type of breather mod? Whats the point if they are still dumping blow-by into the airbox?

 

[Silverrider]

I did the same mod on one of mine with the thought of less oil being sucked in and settling on the air cleaner base. And then wipe it away. Like I said the with the thought. don't really know long term sold the bike. :black_eyed:

I went Keyless Gas cap.

I went Keyless. View attachment 8426

Reading the thread preview I thought, for a second, you'd done a cool RFID keyless ignition!
Though not as trick, the gas cap looks good.

Thx , I corrected it. Gas cap. thx you .Saves the hassle a the pump.

 

[Chicknstripn]

You didn't have to correct your original post.

I've been thinking about going with one of those gas caps, since I'm planning on going keyless ignition. Just need to find the cheapest, and simplest, way to make it work.

Who's the manufacturer of the gas cap?

 

[Silverrider]

Not the Cheap ones here.

These are 1/2 the cost

I kinda like the cheap ones better:upset:?

The machining isn't as nice but I like the industrial look... Good find Silver!

Look what beer and the internet did to me!

I like the S shape in the center and they have a anti vacuum tube .

But any way What is in your mind? For your paint theme ? If I can pry ?

You gotta crop those toes out of the pic , please LOL

 

[Cooter]

Those aren't my Barney rubble feet! ahahaha

Something patriotic:triumphant:

 

[vicenzajay]

I suppose the obvious question is whether or not the inexpensive version comes with the hardware needed to mount the cap?

 

[Cooter]

Ace carries stainless hardware. 5 bolts couldn't break $2 and you get to pick whatever cool guy stuff you like! Now, where's the T27 section....

Here is what I see for you !

 

[vicenzajay]

Yeah - no ACE here...but we do have a smaller hardware store with individual fasteners.

What size/length are those bolts, just for information's sake?

Here you go same size as what holding it in currently.

 

[Silverrider]

Put my updated dash back on, EBR got it one day and updated and sent it back to me the next day. Bam ! service

 

[vicenzajay]

Cool....looks like 1 1/8 long...if I go that route I'll pull a fastener and take it in. Not sure the lengths are the same given the position of the bolt "plate" on the keyless versions, but won't be hard to figure out.

Cheers...

New back tire...

Love the Conti-Sport Attacks, but they only last ~3000 miles (if I am nice). Of course some of that is my fault. The harder the pull, the bigger the grin. Got the front tire off the ground a couple times tho.

Wrapped some stuff in vinyl, carbon and grey and did some led mods. one led in each air scoop, one ring above the shock and installing the red angel eyes as we speak. Cleaning stuff as I take it apart.
