Okay, I am doing the 10k service on my 99 X1. I decided to go ahead and do the brakes front and rear. I ordered the pads from Lyndall Racing (great pad and...

Thanks Jim. I'm getting ready do the "reverse" bleeding with a syringe from the bleeder up to the master cylinder. My mity vac seemed to walk away from the...

To anyone, I have a 2003 XB9S. If I just replace the existing stock muffler with the race kit muffler, is any other tuning required for the bike to run...
It won't really run right until you get the whole kit. The map is for the stock system, not race muffler. J ... __________________________________ Do you...
Okay, I finally find the time to get my 99 X1 back on the road after having it apart doing the 10k service, brakes, and just misc. tuning to get back on the...

It's the original battery. I just had it load tested this winter before storing for the season. Also had it on the trickle charger. It started right up on my...
Not many buell's batteries last as long as yours has.I only know of one guy who went five years before his dumped on him.,.........Later Charlie ... From:...
It could be a marginal battery or your charging system. Put a volt meter on the battery with the engine running at 2000 RPM. Voltage should be 13.8 volts...
one more thing to add, from car experience: the battery, alternator, and charging circuit are all interdependent. if one of them goes bad, it's possible for...
I am going to start with simple (and cheapest hopefully) and go from there. I did not about the age factor on motorcycle batteries. Have never had a problem...
You can get away with changing just the muffler, but remember that it will be slightly more lean than it was before. I rode my 12R around with just the race...
I have two questions all: My Buell (98' s3) likes to run at about 1100 RPM when it's colder and around 900 RPM when it's warmer (65+ degrees F). Is this ...
is there anybody out there in the SF bay area with a pitbull lift I could borrow for a while? my rear tire is down to cords, and I'm currently without a lift...
You can get the rear end of the bike off of the ground by putting a small floor jack underneath the rear shock mount and jacking the bike up an inch or so....
that'd work great if I had a small floor jack. :) actually, I'm lacking any kind of lifting equipment for the bike right now, and if I'm going to borrow...
Whereabouts in the SF Bay Area are you?? We're cleaning out my Mom's garage this week in the outer Sunset District, and I have a sizzor jack (the kind found...
thanks. I appreciate the offer, but I'll pass (I'm in san jose). the idea was if I was going to ask to borrow some equipment to do the job, then I might as...

Typical rocker box leak. Every bike gets them, and I've repaired more than I can remember. My '01 S3T had the rear repaired under warranty; now the front is...
Hello -- I haven't posted group for ages, but I've ran into a problem. My XB12R dies as soon as it starts raining. After 4 or 5 days in the garage, it fires...
