Lurking on Facebook
I’ve discovered many Buell and Vrod groups on Facebook with some interesting posts and lots of pics. But every time I try to add my 2 cents to a discussion I find a complete tool that blatantly attacks and resorts to name calling. I like to stay stock and follow the manufacture service procedures, except when tightening oil drain plugs. Call me old fashion.
These tools make me so frustrated that I’m really suspicious that they have never ridden a bike and they are simply trolls.
I really appreciate the community this forum has. Thank You. With out you guys I would have sold my Uly the first time it refused to start, instead of getting three more Buells.
Really? A push rod V45 1203cc can smoke an 1125? Really? I’m a squid because I don’t want to pull the factory EFI and put on a carburetor for an extra 5HP? Really? A choke is better than an ECM? Ok I’m ranting now.

It's pretty easy to block someone there and not listen to the BS if you don't want to.
Often it's better to stay quiet, although as a mod I have a hard time doing so.
Just watch out for that Jacob Stark guy, he's a bit of a clown some days.

^I like this a lot^
I really wish I could stay off facebook, the buellxb group on there is a joke imo!

I had a run in with a guy named Shane Nigans I think. I blocked him and his posts. Apparently if you don’t put on a 1250 hammer kit and a carb on your bike you have no idea what you’re doing. And a tuber has a better power to weight ratio than an 1125...
Don’t even get me started on the V-Rod tools. Never need to check valve lash on a Rod??? Yes I agree, you may never need to adjust it, but waiting to hear a noise before checking it... OMG! Tight valves are the silent killer.
There is a general consensus that HD mechanics suck because they don’t follow the service manual, but if some moron tells you nonsense on FB it’s the holly grail.
I love you guys <3
