ok i went out again and spit and snarled at em for a while, it must have worked becaus they practically fell right out, wheeew. i think i might have somthing on wrong becaus the new can isnt centered at all its really running down the right side just inside of the belt pully. hmm thanks a million fellas you guys are the bomb Glen | ||

For future reference, be wary of any time where a steel fitting (those bolts in this case) touches aluminum (the muffler bracket). It corrodes in no time, makes them hard to get out, and can easily cause the aluminum to weaken and break when you go to take the bolt out... learned that the hard way. | ||

Aww if you aren't a people person then you're in for a rude awakening on a Buell  | ||

If you are going to stay with the Buell here are some pointers. You don't have to answer all the questions. Smiling keeps them from knowing they are going to get throttled till it's too late. I get more smiles from the girls in the gas station with the Buell mesh jacket than the Alpine Stars drystar. A hooker in Vegas told me talkin' don't cost nuthin'. It may sound like rambling but there's a message there. |
