1995 Buell S2 Thunderbolt
Yellow Jacket Pearl
Thunderstorm heads, 10:2-1 pistons, Screaming Eagle Cams, (installed in 1998 at 855 miles on the odometer by Redline in Skokie IL). Also has a Dyna ignition with adjustable two stage rev limiter. This is integrated with the original ignition module. Other changes and improvements include: Nissin S3 rear brake caliper, brake pads, drive belt, seals in front forks, updated isolators front and rear, Pirelli Angel GT tires front and rear which now have less than 500 miles on them, new fairing bags, lowered touring peg mounts, multi-adjustable aluminum clipons by West-Tek, XB front mirrors, Corbin seat, updated brake lines, new front rotor, chrome front master cylinder and levers, Energy One clutch with reduced pull effort, PM S3 aluminum wheels, carbon fiber Vance & Hines muffler, and more. Bike will come with original takeoff parts including belt sprocket cover, rear brake caliper, clutch and brake levers, master cylinder, rear turn signals, and mirrors. Also includes Factory Service manual and Factory parts manual. I have the original fairing bags that we can swap for the new ones if you want to take the bike back to stock. I also have the original PM S2 wheels available (I took them off when I bought the bike) but those would cost extra, as well as the S2/S3 conversion rack with backs and both deep and shallow lids as well as a set of backs for parts. I would let it go for $3400 with the extra wheels and hard bags.
I am an hour from SeaTac airport. I could pick you up at the airport and put you up for the night. Then you could ride it home. It would only take an hour to put the luggage back on. The wheels have a good shipping box.
I have had only ethanol free gas in this bike for the last two years and store it on a battery tender. I ride it occasionally to keep the engine happy. Last oil change was in September. The body has some minor rash on the front fairing that could use a better paint. There is some crazing in the fairing but it is cosmetic only. Otherwise the bodywork is in good condition and all the original carbon fiber bits are there. This bike is fast, the original owner had set it up for drag racing but I have had it for 10 years and used it for sport touring. I have been to almost every state west of Ohio multiple times. The bike had about ten thousand miles on it when I bought it and now it is over 47,000. I have had zero problems with the engine and it should be good for another 60 thousand before needing a rebuild.

Here is the bike in touring trim. I took these parts off because I am trying to sell the bike locally. It is easy to put all of these parts back on. Make me an offer for the full package. That is fairing lowers, S3 bag rack, two sets of deep lids, one set of shallow lids, and the windscreen aerofoil (although I took it off because it buffets my head). I do have the original wheels, if those are important to you we can discuss it.

Dammit, why must I love S2s! Always loved your bike Shane, and would love to buy it, but just doesn't make sense for me. I already currently own 5 S2s, including the red one in your picture (previously JVV's bike).

Ross, Yes that was a fun time in Northern California. More of a West Coast S2 Rally since we couldn't get anyone from back east to ride out. I just needed to get a bigger and heavier sport touring bike for the type of riding I do.

Correction- What I thought were the original fairing bags are off an S3. But the ones on the bike are the new reproductions.

This is really my last shot before breaking it down into boxes and putting it into the attic. I would rather an enthusiast had it.

Sir:

I am out of the country till Wednesday at 1800 MST, but I am interested. Might I contact day after Thanksgiving? I'd call from here, but the Democratic Republic of the Congo doesn't have very good cell connectivity, or at least the part I'm in doesn't. I am an enthusiast and she'd have a wonderful home.
