Congrats! I just got the same bike 9 days ago....yours looks to be in better shape than mine, but I like projects. I hope to have mine on the road soon to enjoy my first ride like you did
Totally subscribed to this. Keep finding some new parts I am in need of. Watching intently (and very cool thread). I may have some spare rearsets to offer up here in the near future.
I'm there will you, but on an xb12scg. Mine is in rough shape, large crack on the left side (maybe 1 inch from cracking through). Another small crack on the center piece, a lot of road rash too. ...
Thanks, once road ready would love to meet up. This is the shock on mine:...
I've spent the last hour reading through a few dozen LED headlight threads, as well as my last experience with HIDs on my previous bike. Overwhelming folks tried the LED bulbs in our stock XB light...
Can't decide to save my life on aftermarket turn signals. Might go this route!
As soon as I get all my fixes, upgrades, and inspection will sure meet up with you! Might be in the spring at this rate though haha
Always learning :)
Just remembered I have a can of mineral spirits, might try that straight up rubbed on the can and see what happens
Oh I've watched at least half a dozen already :)
Thanks for the advice. I have a local Jeep job that does some custom work which I am sure wouldnt mind throwing some weld's on things if needed. They like to fab custom things with their water jet...
Will look for that too ocgreenmachine. I need to get the chin fairing off and take a closer look at everything, even if I dont break the exhaust off here in the next few days
Thanks for so many replies overnight, appreciate it. One reason I want to repack and strip the paint is to try and get the exhaust back to "new" as much as I can. I definitely planned to pay...
Appreciate it oh9! I actually placed an order from both St Paul and New Castle after finding their info on a few posts here. I will try twinmotorcycles for part numbers too, that's really helpful! ...
Ah OK. I noticed White's also on a trip to PA last year. Still good to know about Grove's! Grove's used to be Buell friendly, I'd go there to look at Buell's 10 years ago when I got my M...
Thank you GregoXB..paid! :up: :D
For every "oh man, need to fix that" I am uncovering hidden treasures as well. Not to mention learning quickly from some patient folks on here as I browse...
Do you mean Whitt's in Manassas? I've never been there, but very good to know! I live a few miles from Grove's HD here in Winchester but not sure they are Buell friendly. There is a shop on I-81 a...
Confirmed in another thread it's actually an SCG (via checking the VIN). I just noticed that the front brake fluid is AWFUL. Reservoir looks almost empty and what I can see looks kind of milky...
Thank you for the fast reply! Silly question, windscreen logo was also just the S? Mine was debadged from previous owner. I feel a little bad he didn't know this stuff. I think he literally rode...
Well there you have it, the 4th and 5th numbers are indeed WX. Now I'm even more excited since the scg was my top choice! Do you recall if the timing cover had an scg specific cover? Only asking...
Silverrider,
I tried checking some threads but may have missed it (or rushed through it) is there a way to differentiate between the kickstands? Obviously by length, but, I couldnt find a...
As I am looking over my bike for previous work, and things I want to do, I am finding that mine has (almost I think) been converted to an scg: lowered fork, yellow spring, scg seat. Checking my...
Ugh, thought I missed something, sigh. Thank you. I'll check it this evening and lookup to compare. Kind of excited that the conversion is (almost) there...I preferred an scg but couldnt pass up...
