Haha yeah, new one for me too. When I pulled the old filter, the double threaded bolt came out in the old filter and I had to reinstall it once I finagled it out of the old filter. Seemed a little...

And if anyone else who knows more reads this, please tell me if I’m wrong.

Okay, so after your response, I did some further research and digging. It turns out it is the oil check valve! When removing the old filter, the threads it attaches to came out with it and it looks...

Changed my oil tonight on my XB9s. When I was pouring the oil out of the pan into waste pails, I found a weird spring probably an inch and a half with a rubber end. Can anyone tell me what this is?

I figured it out! After hearing your suggestions, I went ahead and broke down the front of the bike and unloomed the wires that went to the back looking for abnormalities. Being a novice to this, it...

Well, I did. I could find nothing that may have caused the issue. All of it worked at first and then all the sudden stopped. I’m wondering if it’s possible the ECM possible has faulted? Is there a...

Okay guys, if you read my last post, it was involving tearing apart the front end and replacing everything with one singular headlight. I had an issue with the ignition switch which I’ve now...

Thanks Cooter, definitely worth considering. I have an appointment with a locksmith who thinks it's possible to repair it. Until then, I ordered just a cheap universal switch to use until I either...

Well, there are 2 parts of the switch that come apart by removing two phillips head screws. It was my only option to try to figure out what was wrong so when I removed them, I noticed the little bar...

Hey guys, I ride a 2003 Buell XB9S. I am in the middle of replacing the whole front assembly with a single 7" headlight and new gauges. Tonight, I removed the ignition switch. Somehow in the process,...

It worked!! The Bike rides now without a hitch and shifts perfectly. It rides like it is supposed to! Thanks for the help guys!

Holy giant head light Batman!

Hey guys, so has anyone had any luck with an inexpensive replacement for the head lamp in the Blast? I have the stock one and it's so dim at night. Not looking to spend alot but do need something...

Cool. Well I'm going to put it all back together this afternoon and see what I come up with. I have high hopes!

Hey guys! So I last posted saying I was having some clutch and shifting issues. I was told some of you guys it may be the detent, pawl, shift drum, etc. So here is what I have done with this. I...

Hey guys so it's been a few weeks since I last posted. So here is what I have done with this. I removed the primary cover. Noticed some pieces of what looked like a washer in the bottom. So to...

Ok so with the thought it has to do with the shifter or the detent on the drum, where do I go from here? Any links to how to fix it would be awesome.

So how so I fix it? Clutch rebuild or new clutch?

The blast has 9k miles on it.

Ok I'll try to describe it. Ill be cruising along and all the sudden it seems like I'm holding in the clutch. Rpms accelerate but the bike doesn't. But if I'm in third gear, when this happens, it...

Hey guys I am new to riding and new to this site. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have an 07 Blast. I love riding it. My issue is the clutch seems to slip into neutral randomly. I changed...
