Yes, when you try to remove the wheels and the previous owner torqued them down to 200+ ft-lbs and you need a 4 ft breaker bar to loosen the axle. Stop, order wheel bearings and inner wheel...
Just to add my useless 2 cents. I have a D&D on an XB12R... LOUD and TANGY is the way I would describe it. I'm not a fan of the sound. I preferred the Jardine can that it replaced BUT before you all...
34:19 and Cooter have some sort of "special" bond going on that I personally find uncomfortable. My 2 cents... Disconnect the brakes (if they work) and roll her down the largest hill you can find,...
Bike is a 2008, no steel/bronze oil pump drive gear. Hammer Performance recommends 70lbs with red lock tight. The manual has a procedure that accorcding to H.P. works out to 50lbs.
And I'm the F#@K'n insane one?
I enjoy my “black scorpion”, your “red dragon “ is a nice score/fix! Is it just me but are ALL previous Buell owners abusive riders that don’t stay up on basic maintenance? These things aren’t...
I had no idea the GS could “get over” my poor assumption. I have never been much of a fan of BMW, butt ugly IMHO.
Thx for the BBQ tip?
Hind sight is always 20/20, its hard not to overthink the diagnostic process. I try to take "known" issues into account first, really shaves off the hours. I was very fortunate to have a good ECU and...
BEST LINE EVER!
Made my morning Cooter.
Yes its an old post but...
Thank You
Thank You for the shopping list of parts Barrett!
Gotta love cross reference part numbers
How did you contact tootal? Bad weather? How long ago did you order the shaft?
My buddies S3 throttle shaft splintered and a screw made it into the intake… I think I’m going to replace the shaft...
Saw an XB12S a couple of years ago with a rod attached to the front end to be used with highway pegs. In one word “Awful” I’ve never considered highway pegs, strictly because of the look. It’s my...
Point taken. All about the shock value
The saga between me and my XT has been a little tumultuous over the past six months, so bad that I picked up a Yamaha SuperTenre. In the spring I was blasting down a country highway, about 30...
Barrett,
I was totally upfront about playing with a non daily rider and NOT blaming the bike or asking for tons of free tuning advice. No cause for concern at all. I wanted to know if others had...
I reloaded my race map and let it idle for a while. The AFV was 100% because I reset it. The O2 sensor hummed nicely, apparently working and the EGO hovered around 120%
The rear pipe did obtain a...
34-19 it was SMOKING HOT!!! according to your burn-o-matic gage so around 500 degree C im assuming. Way Too Warm, I don't have to shave the right side of my face HOT. The rear header was notably...
thank you for the very detailed reply.
Looks like I have some homework to do.
1) I'm messing around because I can, not my daily ride.
2) Bike was/is running fine. It had a stock tune and a...
When I reverted back to the original EEPROM/MAP the glowing header problem goes away. Im going to leave the factory/stock map on the bike until I can go for some butt dyno runs.
When I say the...
Happy new year folks. I added a 2007 XB12R to the stable, i wanted a 2010 XB9 for the extra cool blacked out stuff but I couldn't resist the price. Like most Buells, she had a rough life and I have...
Found three wires in the triple clamp area that failed the “pull test” patched them, but still no love. Very intermittent spark, the clean spark plug feature and ECMspy test both fire nice. Still...
actually I get spark intermittently when I wiggle the wires. As a rule, no spark. Yep a nice/beeping FLUKE meter. Ill go over the kill switch/ignition switch. Need to get the current bike of the...
the grounds are all good, At the neck and the two under the seat. Added fresh star washers and checked for broken connections. I will tear into the triple clamp and wire harness after I give the bike...
