OK, I appreciate all the input on trying to raise the riding position on my '98 Cyclone. I found the S3T bars in the Sporttwin site, but was confused as to...

I just picked up my first Buell(01 X1), and am damn excited about it. After putting about 500 miles on it over the past week, Im noticing that the seat is...
Corbin makes the best seats. You can get them at American Sportbike, Sporttwin and directly from Corbin. As for bars, play around with yours for a bit. You...
Hey all, i went out last monday and forked out 12 grand for a brand new x1 with the add on wheels, and i love it! But im wanting to put some ground effects...
Hmmm! Ground effects lights sound like they might be kinda nice; can't ride my new S3T for a few months so I'm "sprucing her up a bit" ... can you do up some...
Hey, like i said in a previous post, i went out and bought a yellow 2002 x1, and im from a lil town in kansas, that knows nothing but sportsters,cbr's and...

John, Give a yell when you get your bike, I'm about 90 minutes NW of DC. Fortunately right in the middle of some nice riding territory. Which dealer are you ...
My opinion only, but I testrode all models (X1, S3, M2) and the M2 Cyclone was my favorite. One year and 19,000 km and I know it was the right choice. 500...

I have the Buell X1 custom seat which is a big improvement over the stock perch. I'm 6' and can ride all day with only minor discomfort. I don't know your ...
your story made me laugh and also painfully remember the same thing! The X1 has the MOST uncomfortable seat of them all. I have a '99 X1 Race stripe, after...

I completely agree on the X1 seat- it sucks! I'm an M2 owner but last week I put 300 miles on an X1. I was fighting the seat the whole time. Luckily there...

You just HAD to post pix of your awesome bike.....JUST when I'd decided on an "X1"....hehe SWEET "S1" Kevin---I LOVE that style....well something else to ...

Hey all, ive put over 1300 miles on my 2002 X1 and sure the seat was uncomfortable for the first 500 miles or so, but im used to it now, it doesnt hurt at...

Almost time to replace the original front brake pads at 19,000 km (12 k miles). What mileage have others gone and which pads have you tried? mike01m2...
John , what is your opinion on the Michelin Macadam 100's? I recently installed a set and like them. Similar to a D205 but I've heard last longer as you say....
Mike, I too, am pretty happy with the Macadam 100's. Better dry traction than the D205 and FAR better traction in the wet. I got stuck in a pretty good...
I got 10,000 out of my front pads, and switched to a HH compound pad in the front. I can't remember the manufacturer. It was a big name company I just can't...
Shawn, would the pads be Ferodo? or SBS? Any rotor wear? I've heard some aggressive pads eat the rotors. Congrats on the high mileage 99 X-1. According to...
