Is THAT where he went?? Naughty little bug....

:eagerness:

The used bike market is bonkers right now, and a lot of people learning to ride. I'd clean it up, throw all the maintenance at it, safety check it, and post it up!

Unfortunately, you are too.

Ebays sells some versions too.

Yes. Uly wheels (later?) were a little thicker, and got an extra bearing in late '09-2010 but all XB wheels interchange. Including 1125.

Just Google, Twin Motorcycles. They are in the Netherlands, but theres a ton of places in the US that sell new Buell parts, what ya need?

LOVE that color:love_heart:

The TKC-70 is ROCK hard, super heavy, LOUD, will last forever, rough riding, will climb a scrap metal mountain without punctures, fair to poor in the rain, and look super cool.

I would:
1) Dyno the bike to see if your butt-dyno is even correct, or if you are chasing a ghost.
2) Datalog your bike to diagnose any issue you find.
3) FIX whatever problem you find that makes...

Can you hear that?? It's me. Lowering my standards.:black_eyed:

I have run those chinese levers with success before. Expect the anodize to turn brown in a year and MAKE SURE THERE IS CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE M/C PISTON AND BRAKE LEVER PLUNGER WHEN AT REST!!!!

Welcome to the forum Corey:eagerness: Ya we smartass a bit here, but its all well intended and theres a group of very helpful and knowledgeable peeps here. Feel free to ask about the Buell-izms, but...

Exposed Dycks?

34:19 has a few Buells apart, he should look into it and get back with you tomorrow.

IMO, if you aren't hearing any odd Ducati-dry-clutch-like-rattling with the clutch out in neutral,...

Looks like a very clean, low mileage, Lightning Long. MotoComposits carbon fiber goodies, Drummer exhaust, good tires (check the date code). I'd rock it for that price for sure!

There seems to be a lot of Dycks there:

IMO an M-2 is one of the great bikes that truly does everything very well. You could always spent $50 and change the handlebars to something with just a little rise to them, depending on your size...

A $3500 Blast!?

Don't tell Bubbles she sold hers too early

You're gonna want a SS, STT, or Uly for the added suspension travel if you are even thinking of anything off-pavement.

There is seriously a guy I see all the time even bigger than that, on an R/6! At least three cows gave their life for that guys leather suit:upset:

I agree with all of that. Had a chance to sit on one at the last IMS show 2019 and several times at the dealer. It absolutely feels like a XB but lower (I ride an SS) so it feels slightly small to...

Me likey, much big yes happy time!
:)

The SS and STT are identical except for some of the plastics, handguards, and the tall single seat.

1" or 2" drop pegs are available. Where are you? I have both if you want to sit on each of them.

I don't know of any polyurethane that has that low a durometer with that high an elasticity like the OE rubber mount. But I don't know much about anything. YMMV.
