Hey all, I'm new to the group, and felt a tire discussion would be a good place for me to jump right in. Since getting my XB12R finding the perfect tire has...
I feel you on this. I started on an XB9 and the first couple of times i road, i hurt so much that i thought i was built wrong for riding sports bikes. ...
Let me know how those Michelin's work out for you? I decided to give the Pirelli Diablo's a shot and should be getting them next week. Most people on the board...
Once you burn some of the rubber off those Pirellis let me know what you think. I love em and the people that I have sold them to love em also. I still would...
A nearby dealer has a 2000 M2 Cyclone with 1875 miles for sale for about $5000.00.Would this be a decent deal, assuming the test ride turned out positive? ...
Kelly Blue Book for a PERFECT example of that bike would be $4,785 in my area. I know... I used to own one. Traded it in for $2,000 with 36,000 miles on the...
I agree with Jaime, $5k does sound a bit high, even with the low miles. I sold my '99 M2 with 17k miles and lots of goodies for $4500 back in July of '03. My...
Just to throw my two cents in on the tire debate, the rear Dunlop on my '03 XB9S was toast at 2,600 miles. Pretty amazing. I decided to switch to the same...
Did a track event at Summit Point two days on a road coarse on new Dunlops 208s I am half way through the brand new tires. Really used up on sides. I had the ...
http://www.americanclassicmotors.net/buell.htm Tends to have good priced buells. There is an x1 in there for a little under 5. Just another option, I don't...
Well I just got the Diablo's in, but so far it seems no one can lift my S3, not even me. I can change the tire if I can get it off. Was thinking that it would...
My BMW dealer used a hoist on the frame and handlebars to get my Cyclone up off the ground. Fortunately Buell designed the new XB's so that big honkin'...
modesto buell? they should be able to handle it. ________________________________ From: Buell@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Buell@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Maus,...
Hello to all, I have an absolutely mint 2000 X1 Lightning on eBay (4587929582) at the moment. The bike is like new, with only 2100 miles. Red, Vance & Hines,...
A ladder with tie-down straps hanging down the middle works well, too. Cheers, Alan ... From: "Jay Carlson" <jaycar@...> To: <Buell@yahoogroups.com> ...
wow, that's an idea I hadn't considered...a good sturdy ladder, and some way to ensure the straps don't slip, would let me get the bike off the ground outside....
I've never owned a Buell before, but the Ulysses sounds right up my alley as to what I'm looking for. Someone mentioned in one of the other threads about this...
It also has an optional low seat, which may be right up your alley. I have a 32" inseam and it's tippy-toe for me at stops with the regular seat. Of course,...
True, but I used to live in Fremont and might be moving back that way. So I go to Fremont every once in awhile. I know that I could go to Fresno or Modesto but...
Here is how I lift my Buell. Throw a chain and block and tackle over a ceiling joist. Run two by four stringers about two feet out on either side of the chain....
You can use a stands, the ones from Handy are pretty inexpensive http://www.handyindustries.com/shop/product_view.asp?idProduct=167&D=1&S=4 I use a pitbull...
That sounds pretty close to something I'm going to try. Basically replace your ceiling joist with a Cherry picker. As mine is a 2001 S3, I don't think I'll...
point made, so i see that there is a better rear wheel stand out there, i was going to tell you about the one i just got from cycle gear ( Pit-Bull) but i do...
Ben, I wouldn't let seat height be a stumbling block. I was on one at the dealer a couple of weeks ago and I, too, was only able to get about half of each...
