    Nice picture explanation :up:

    Use flux, helps the solder flow more evenly

    Wow, nice write up! I had been having similar issues on my '08 12s. Was getting rear o2 inactive codes after stutter/misfire, so I just ran it open loop which fixed all of the stutter/misfire at 3500...

    I agree. But if there is a performance gain and the bike still runs well, then I would assume the AFR should be better than before, correct?

    Perfect, that's exactly what I was unsure about! There was a lot of information I read through that didn't make 100% sense to me and that's essentially the biggest question I had. Thanks for that...

    Underpowered/too lean?

    Hey all! So my journey with Buells continues! The bike is treating me well and I am having fun getting used to its riding characteristics coming from a 2010 zx6r. I've been reading all over of people...

    Yeah I think it's not so much engine/piston size as it is the single-pin crank design. It's naturally sort of "off-balance" so a little shaking would seem normal. As long as it's not shaking while...

    Mine doesn't seem to have any odd vibrations while cruising, its actually really smooth. Pretty sure the engine shake during rpm drop is due to the single-pin crank shaft design and like rchuff said,...

    Of course! On the XB, only a few days. But I've been on other V-twins (smaller displacement - 649, 821, 1098) that I never noticed that on before. 1203 cc V-twin is definitely a lot different and a...

    No the bike rev matches just fine on down shifts. This only occurs if I'm cruising then pull in the clutch to coast. As the engine speed drops, there is a bit of shudder but it doesn't behave weird...

    2008 xb12s. The tires are good, it's not the actual ride quality that shakes. It's like I can feel the engine shaking a bit as the rpms fall after pulling in the clutch. It's not like a violent shake...

    The cover itself will be easy. Making a guard that looks good would be a bit more difficult. I wonder if 5-0 would lend me his CAD design :cool::cool:

    No not yet! I know of a few groups that do some riding in the area, met them all back when I was on a zx6r. Not really my type of rides though lol. Part sourcing has been pretty easy so far for me....
