Blake, I've successfully posted a message that contains a link to another part of the board; but is there a way to provide such a link without typing the entire url for the message I want to link to? I tried to cheat and shorten things up; but it didn't work, so I typed in the whole thing.

Chuck: Hmmmm, not sure. Maybe Vik knows? He knows way more about BBS tricks on this site than I do. I think he is part cyBORG. :) Yeah that's it, Vik/Eeeeek the Buell racing cyborg SacBORGer. :)

Blake, maybe it would suffice to repeat the process you described to Jose when he was posting that engine breather diagram. Can you tell me where on the board that was, again?

Chuck,

Put you mouse overh the little yellow/tan folder with the Infinity symbol. Right mouse click and seclect "Copy Shortcut". Go your post and then "Copy". When you do a preview you'll be able to enter a description or leave the URL.

This is you original post done that way.

Blake,

I'll ask Choptop to write you a check for a penny.

Chuck: You'll find the instructions for posting already resident images in "Quick Board: 2002 Buell engine speculation: Archive through May 06, 2001". I'm not sure how much that will help with a straight URL type link. Give it a try though.

Shoot Blake, I just stumble across stuff. I like the image already uploaded trick and don't think I would have ever figured that one out.

Arvel's got the best way to grab the location for a post. Gotta love that little folder.

I need help. I'm considering buying a Buell. I'm looking at a 2000 M2. I think the only modification is an air filter and air box. First, what should I check on when looking at the bike? Second, how much should I spend? The bike appears to be in good shape and has 1500 miles.

My last bike was a 98 Honda VTR 1000. (No, not a VR 1000) I got rid of it about two years ago. I was thinking that I would get a Harley but I can not imagine spending THAT much $ for a bike that is so heavy and slow and in need of instant performance modifications to get out if its own way.

So, I'm looking at the Buell as a compromise. It is quick and is also part Harley.

What is the BIG difference between the M2 and X1? I'm not trying to set the road on fire so I think I would get more use from the M2. That way I could ride the twisties and cruise with my Harley buddies.

I've noticed in some of the ads that several performance mods have been made to many of the bikes. Specifically exhaust, air box and shifter modifications seem plentiful.

What is the deal with the shifter? I can understand the air box/exhaust for better breathing.

I will be able to park the beast in my garage and I am somewhat mechanically inclined so routine to moderate maintenance/repair will be no problem.

The bikes sound like a lot of fun and two years is WAY too long to be out of the saddle in Southern California.

Any input will be appreciated.

Jeff
