I am installing the carbon fiber under seat panel on my 2000 X1 Lightning. I am missing the barrel key lock assembly. Does anyone have an extra one they want...
Everyone, After I rejetted and put an s&s air cleaner on my 98 s3, I took the bike out for a spin. It ran great until I got close to my garage- it was popping...
Okay. Thank everyone for the responses on my previous post about this subject. I went ahead and broke down and ordered the CRG mirrors. Does anyone know what...
Hello, Just had to give an up date on this. I have been running 2/3 the race kit on my 02 X1 and it never really seemed to run right, actually lost power over...
Hello Group, I recently purchased a 2000 X1 with 6000 miles on the clock. After riding this bike for a while I've noticed that steering inputs are required...
first, make sure it's properly adjusted -- the previous owner might have had it set up for their own personal riding preferences. adjust the rear shock to the...
How much play should the remote idle adjuster have? My adjuster only turns about a half turn each way. Is there any trick to it? It seems like it should turn...
What spark plugs do you guys recommend? It's time for service on my 99 X1 and I want to try a new plug. All I have ever ran is the stock plug with a slightly...
I run Autolite copper plugs in the Buells and Harleys I work on. I also index the plugs. The bikes seem to run smoother with this setup. Jim ... From:...
I run Autolite 4163 which is equivalent to the HD 10R12 that Buell has recommended since 2000 1/2. Gapped at the standard .040. If you need a hotter plug go...
... has ... Evo ... Do you know of a Champion plug that is the equivalent? Do you have a preference for Autolites or have you ran other plugs? Thanks again. ...
Champion is a RA6HC or 809. I've used Champions in the past but like the Autolites as they are easier to get. Can't say one is better than the other... Jim ...
hello all, as i was leaving for a nice ride here in cenrtal iowa last week, i started to hear a noise as i left a stoplight. i didnt know what the scratching...
it's always a good idea to replace the tire if it's damaged, since a) you'll not have to worry about a bad repair job and b) sport tires don't last that long...
Depends on how many miles you have on it. If it's near the end of its life, replace the tire. Otherwise a combo plug/patch works well as long as the puncture...
I always thought a patch from the inside was well worth doing on a tire with GOOD life left in it. Never knew one to fail immediately and be a liability ...

one of the problems with plugs in a motorcycle tire (as opposed to a car tire) is the motorcycle tire experiences a great deal more lateral force, and that...
I guess I should have been more specific -- there is a special plug kit you can buy that has a patch attached to it. The plug fills the hole and the patch...
I'm curious about the tire plug question. I've used plugs (mostly those sticky/stringy things) on car and truck tires for years with no problems ever. I read...
The TPS can be reset using either Scanalyzer ($1450 for just the box, but you need the cable and cartridge too))or Digital Technician ($11000)- or like Wolf...
the remote idle adjuster should be able to turn many times, but due to its location to a great heat source (the engine) and not being cleaned/lubed regularly -...
I tried to purchase a Scanalyzer a few years ago -- no such luck. Harley makes sure only their dealers get them. I took my bike to the local dealer and had to...
I have a used power commander III for a 99-02 X1 that I bought off of Ebay for sale, I never installed it, I bought the race module instead. I also have the...
