*Bump* Still for sale! =)
Yeah, I love the bike. I have had a tough time finding things I don't like about it. It's a shame to just let it sit around.
I should also point out, I'm in the Minneapolis area. (If you...
Hey guys,
I know this isn't a Buell, so I'm banking on my reputation to not get drummed off the site for this. ;)
But, it's time for my Victory to go. I just don't have the time to ride it, or...
Personally, I'd order the rebuild kit. I'd bet a beer that it's starved for fuel.
I would agree, it sounds fuel starved. Confirmed by it running correctly when you partially cover the carb.
When you cleaned the carb, did you tear it down?
I'm assuming the idle and low speed...
$3600 if he'll peel the HD sticker off first...
Yup, that is taking the "rat rod" concept to its limits. I can just hear the conversation between the rider and his brother.
Rider: Hey bro, see that motor boat gas tank over there? Cut that...
60PSI? Sounds like you're headed back into the engine. Compression should be 150+
You may want to try again with the pictures. Upload them to your Buellxb.com image gallery then "go to the "Add your photo" function on the post.
I'd suggest draining the oil and see what comes out. (Recommended oil is 20w-50, btw.)
Sounds to me like the piston rings let go. Too much blow by is the only thing I can think that would cause...
Yeah, tough to say. Leo Vince's website sucks... Searching on there doesn't get you any Buell parts. Call them up, maybe you'd have better luck on the phone.

I hate to ask the really dumb question, but are you pushing the shift lever down from neutral, then four up from there? 3K RPM at 60MPH doesn't sound all that unreasonable.
Any more details...
"I don't know what I hit mom. That's why I don't stop."
HORSE ****! ****, this makes me mad. Was he sleeping? Drunk? Stoned? How the hell do you not know that you just ran two motorcycles over?
Just trying to help ya out...
What is it's current condition? Mileage? What kind of title? (Clean? Salvage?)
2 questions:
1) Can I borrow someone's bike to try out the expert cornering instruction and practice?
2) Anybody know who the cute redhead in the 6th picture down on the home page? Yowza. Ok,...
Shared on FB, I suggest others do the same.
Get the word out there, it won't take long for someone with a conscience to recognize and turn this asshole in.
As far as the going in/out, I don't really know.
I had the same problem on mine, the hose melted through and became brittle. I just cut it off and put a breather filter on it.
...
I think if you had a lower mileage bike you may have a solid investment. But unless you plan on keeping it maintained for 30 years I don't think it would be worth your time. If you had a brand new...
Red-neck engineering at its finest. I love it.
I'd love to hear a 125 HP Briggs-Stratton v-twin. Lol.
That's some funny ****! =)
Nice tip 50dro!
I have a box of parts, if your interested. Some stuff you may be interested in. I know it's got a couple turn signals in there, a clutch lever, rear brake pedal, front brake perch, lolly-pop...
Glad it worked out.
I could watch that girl hula-hoop all day...
Yeah, I hate it when the Trolls say they live in "Northern Michigan" ;) Fellow Yooper here too, grew up in Ishpeming. You don't even know what snow is until you've visited Ishpeming or the...
Yup, true literary genius there! It sounds like it was written by a 13 year old! =)
Good stuff!
