The MotoBoss stands I have hold my Buell loaded (M2 w/S3 Fairing and OEM soft bags) better than I had hoped. They were sold by tire size...not recommended to...
OK I'll admit it I think I was wrong about them being dirt bike stands. The dirt bike stands have an angled peg and I believe yours have the peg at 90 degrees...
I just purchased the 1998 S1W with 5500 miles. So this my sound stupid. Is the rear brake not supposed to lock up? I can mash as hard as possible at like...
Sounds like you may have some contamination on the rotors/pads. Clean the rotor well with brake cleaner and replace the pads. Seat them in properly then give...
even with the pads clean and the brake properly adjusted, you'll get very little braking from the rear on a buell. the front brake is your stopping force, the...
Wolf - Stopping is not the issue here, though. Any bike should lock the rear wheel if the pedal is hit hard enough. We all know that the front brake does all...
NO. Buells are designed not to lock up the rear. the master cyl. does not put enough force on the piston to lock anything up. It was intentional. However,...

Uh, then mine is broke. My rear brake certainly isn't powerful but I can lock it up without any trouble. Mike L. '99 Cyclone (with "broken" functional rear...
Yep...seems strange, but too I have a broken M2. Mine will lock the rear wheel with moderate pressure. And that's including all the added weight of my S3...
I just ticked over 1000K's on the odo this weekend on my new toy. Now I noticed that at about 70klms when you sit up and let go of the bars they shake a...
thats the tire making it wiggle, the more miles the more it will do that. That has been my experience, the only thing that will fix it is a new tire, but...

How much is an 1998 S1W engine with 6500 miles worth? Lady pulled out in front of me and my bike will probably be totaled. The insurance company is going to...
I'm about to start the 20K service on my 2001 S3T. since I have to replace the fork oil as part of the service, I thought I'd check around and see how many...
last night while riding, one cylinder quit firing. sometimes it would come back. im going to try to change plugs first then if that dosent work il take it to...
i'm new in this group...have a cyclone-'97 recently it has started to push alot of oil through the breather when riding it hard. any suggestions as to why...
There are umbrella valves that vent the rockerboxes. V-twins just do that, some more than others. If it's a ton of fluid, toss on a catch can, costs around...
it's an EVO thing...you can chalk up a certain amount of it to "those engines just do that". there's a lot of ink spilled in a lot of places discussing ways to...
just noticed that K&N is selling out their stock of power commanders for less-than-half-price. since that makes the PC cheaper than the race module, it might...
more 20K service/upgrades...went to buy some pro-series plugs for my thunderbolt, since I'm replacing them for the 20K service. they're reasonably cheap at $8...
They use the same gap as regular plugs. I run them in all my bikes right now, but will probably switch to stock Autolites as all of the research I've seen...
does autolite have a $0.99 platinum? I'm not so interested in the splitfire gimmick (one of the electrodes on these is split asymmetrically...that can't be...
Gotta add a buck each for platinum, or 2 bucks for double platinum. Platinum is only good if you are going to go for extended periods without changing your...
In a message dated 9/20/2002 11:14:56 AM Pacific Daylight Time, ... they are for an S-3 or S-3 T....will that work on the cyclone, since we have different...
You're talking apples and oranges. A cyclone is carbureted, S3 and S3T are fuel injected (except for the old ones). The power commander is the ECM that...
If I read it right, American Sport Bike is advertising a 6 Speed Tranny system...on a newsletter sale. I know my M2 has enough power to use a sixth gear (OD). ...
I lost the links to the Buell facts pages, specifically the one that has comparisons of exhaust systems, plugs, etc. Anybody have a few they can recommend?...
