I was gonna ask why I have never seen that bike in Tulsa before but then I seen your mileage.
I've never seen it because you never rode it. LOL
Good luck with the sell.
BUMP
Yes thats a factory/dealer installed race can.
I have 40,000 miles on mine and it shows no sign of wear.
If I were you I would NOT get rid of it....
Happy Birthday to the coolest Buell riding Amish farmer I ever knew! I hope you have a great day and wonder year
Most of what he says he is true aside from the fact that in the picture he posted I was in a borrowed Mustang.
Much like torque wrenches I have no use or desire to own a ford..LOL
And btw lunatic...

there are plenty who ride.
Thank you for the kind words Todd.
I've spent a lot of money on crap. Haha
It really has been a great bike. I did forget to mention I replaced the clutch cable around 20,000 miles but that's the...
Welcome Todd,
You didn't specify how long you warm the bike up. If my bike has sat for a while I let it run a few minutes at the very least. If it has sat over night I let it run approx 8-10 mns...
Sitting up straight put pressure on my lower back after an hour of riding. I installed Crossroads and now my wrists hurt some times and my hands too. (Yes I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. NO...
Yes it is correct.
Nothing has been altered.
First off I am NOT trying to pick on or debate what is right or wrong but this mentality is EXACTLY why I have rode by myself since I bought my bike 6 years ago. The street/public roadways have one...
haha and you know that's right!! Eggs Zack Lee
that's what I'm talking about:D
I agree but he said :
So I figured if he was worried he could change the oil more often. I think you should be able to get at least get 5K miles per change with the synthetics. Not sure about the...
sounds like a plan. I have a teknic summer jacket but I think mine is a bit different and cheaper. I paid $150.00 new from sportbiketrackgear.com I have NO REGRETS buying white for this Oklahoma...
Hey now I thought it was a joke thread honestly. I mean I thought it was like a "where to you put your glasses when you aren't wearing them" type of question. Kind of a silly inquiry but apparently...
I also agree with this completely. Even if you buy brand new (any vehicle) there are always chances you bought a lemon. It would be unfair for us to guess or say how long your bike will last. Change...

39,000 miles(bought with 5,700 June 2007)
clutch cable failed at 20,000 miles
Thanks but it's not really advice,just a friendly reminder. I figure with riding season upon us we all need to be prepared and having an extra key made isn't that expensive.
I appreciate the...
I stuff mine in my pants so I look enticing to all the women folk who walk by as I'm filling up.
Preach on brother, Preach on. LOL
I can already tell I'm gonna need a nerve pill before the day is over.
QUIT being stupid and get a copy made and for the love of God and all that is holy put that torque wrench away
2003 was the first year for HArley Davidson to completely own and run the Buell line. As far as I know the biggest upgrade is the newer and larger drive belt.
Enjoy your HD sportbike, I know I do....
Greetings old Geezer,
A quick google search shows they are $200.00 approx new not $300.00 but now I could be wrong about that.
If the jacket fits you and you like it I say it is a good buy. I...
There's your problem NOT header wrap. Whoever previously owned the bike rode the piss out of it hard enough to cause stress cracks,then instead of replacing the header they did a shoddy weld...
