Also id love to entertain the ideal of the 3 resr wheel bearings modification..something that should have been done in the first place.
Ok for the past month ive had my 04 XB12s torn down under construction. Rebuilding brakes, cleaned up some wiring, and replace the intake gaskets and port gaskets. Before i parked the bike i was...
Yes of course
It sounds worse than it is..maybe. rear axle is seized up and im bout to whoop the guys ass that didnt put antiseize on it when he swapped my tire. I was just thumbimg through the manual and seen...
What exactly happens if the rear axle is tighten while the swingarm brace is removed? We talking warping? twisting? Making it fu#$ing impossible to loosen the rear axle again?
Hell no im not touching that job. I tried a sample piece just a extra rear set piece. I started with my harbor freight sand blaster, it didn't budge the paint. So i said screw it and hit it with a...
Has anyone had luck stripping the paint off the frame to get the natural look?
I guess its suggested to replace the rings to?
Ya yall was correct, the ring wasnt set..and i just wasted my last 2 gaskets...unless i use the flat ones lol
Retainer rings are in. I replaced the intake gaskets and port gaskets. The bike has been running like total piss irregular idle, backfiring, barley keep it running. Its hot af in texas right now and...
Maybe because i have the wrong nut? I have them on order i just needed to finish the job today.12099
Oh stuck my foot in my mouth with this one. Its not wanting to torque down.
So it is a abnormal amount of threads showing?,
Im torquing down my headers and it seems to be taking far to long. I know its a slow process as im going 1/4 at a time. But i just read that many of you are reporting having only 2-3 threads showing...
Never mind i got it....yall to slow.
Im getting ready to install my headers after replacing the port gaskets. I fooled with for a couple minutes before i started getting a little frustrated. Is it necessary to remove the O2 sensor to...
LOL the header has to be catchy or annoying in order to peak yalls interest. I do appreciate the info i was on cell phone and the forum isnt smart phone friendly so doing a searh and reading through...
Im breaking in to my bike and cant seem to track down some parts. Needing the bearing for my belt tensioner pulley (im told can be found at any parts store just need a part #) and im bout to pull the...
I stared at this waaay to long before i figured out what I was looking at..:confused:..im assuming this wasnt routed correctly or what?11791
I have not had a membership to a forum since 2005 when i bought my first sport bike so im still getting adjusted to structure . I dont know if there is a smartphone friendly app for this forum it...
I like your enthusiasm and vague reference with a bit of a "1st base & vanilla humor". Its corky, like a PG rated movie. texb12s=teabag..wait till i tell the boys over at the racketball court...
discuss the header bolts. I know there is no 100% solid fix to keep them from snapping, but whats the best way to help extend the life?
Ya ive already replaced a battery because i kept having to tighten the cables which lead to the terminals cracking. Im in the process of hard-wiring my battery and just rerouting the disconnect.
As far as maintaining my bikes i never cheap out or delay. But this is my first buell, the 04 xb12s. Maintaining these bikes are night and day from im use to. So aside from changing the fluids or...
Gotcha...process of aggravation/Elimination
