Any one know the front frame differences between say a '98 S-1 and '00 X-1? Airtech has this killer full body race fairing kit for the S-1's, but they say they are not sure if it will fit the X-1. I am no stranger to mods, but wanted to know how much is really different with the frame upper, like width, length, stuff like that. Also would a S-1 tank fit the X-1 too (the fairing kit is designed to be used with the S-1 tank)? This is the kit I am referring to: http://airtech-streamlining.com/buell/gp/gpside.jpg | ||

Does anyone know the part # (BMW) for the front fender extender that works on a 00 M-2. | ||

Bull, Better late than never? If you can get into a word processing program such as MS Word and print out a proper sized "Buell" using the Haettenschweiler font you will pretty much have it. You might need to experiment with using a boldface type or stretching the character aspect ratio some, but that should get you very close.  | ||

Anyone know of a common automotive color paint that can be used to touch up minor chips and scratches on Amazon Green Paint? | ||
| Tim |
Paint codes are at the top of the page. | ||

I'm sure this has been asked, but I can put a chin spoiler on my M2 right? (2001). If so does anyone out there have a blue or black one? And will it "bolt" on or do I need to work at it? | ||

Am I safe to assume that the paint code listed above as Billet is actually the Billet Metallic Silver? I am sending my saddle bag lids to be painted tomorrow and want to make sure that I give the painter the right code. Thanks | ||

Anyone know if the 99 and newer Cyclone seat and tail section will retro fit the 97/98 models??? | ||
| Bads1 |
Jbennett yes it will. | ||
| Az_m2 |
Jim, I'd be willing to buy your old style tail section and seat. | ||
| Jbennett |
OK Chris, I'll keep that in mind if I change. | ||

I've posted some pictures and comments on the new tail section from Casuno (Japan) that I just mounted on my M2. The post is here | ||
| Jbennett |
Jerome That tail section & seat look real good. How much did that set you back? I assume the tail section and seat are together in a kit and it's probably primed? Is the phone number in the posting still good? | ||
| Jerome |
Price for the complete tail section (including mudguard and plate support, not including the light and turn signals) and the seat was $880.93 including express shipping (two days) to France. Regarding the contact, Little Tokyo Motorcycle Shop is located at Los Alamitos in California. I don't have their phone number here but if I recall well it was different from the one given by Bryan on the Casuno thread. Have a look at the yellow pages, you'll find it. Their email is : sales@ltmcshop.com (local contact named Tad, and speaking a good english). Yes the tail section comes primed and you need to do the painting yourself. | ||

Does anyone know where I can get the trim pieces that fit below the tank cover on a lightning on right and left sides when you use a custom intake and eliminate the scoops on both sides? | ||

Hey blue lightning, Don'nt waste youre time with the Airtech fairing unless you want to do allot of glass layup. I have already investigated it. The S-1 seat and frame rails come together at an "X" between the seat and tank. Look at a X-1. There is a bar that the tank bolts to that makes the X-1's waist wider and the glass won't line up. that is just one example , there are others. Good luck with the mod's though, Soundman... | ||

X1lightning, Badweb sponsor American Sport Bike has the tank accents in fiberglass and carbon fiber. | ||

Can anyone post or email a picture of the installation process for an X1 chin fairing? I'm mostly interested in the hardware needed to attach piece (especially the "front" right side). Thanks!!! | ||

Any tips on repairing a crack in an S2 (fibreglass) fairing? Its about one inch long, going both ways out from the mirror. Should I drill a small hole at the end of the crack? Fill the crack with resin? Does it need a bit of cloth on the back (or both sides)to hold it together? How do you keep the mounting surface flat if you do that? | ||
| Jaredkuper |
Quick, easy project: I wanted to do something like this, but didn't want to spend the money, so I got 1/2" reflective tape from Applied Graphics and it turned out like this. | ||
| Gixxer851 |
Are there any alternatives to the X1 tank accents from American Sport Bike? I've seen a few from other companies but they look like they're from the same moulds. Has anyone tried to make there own? | ||

Anybody know where I can get a good, clear picture of the Pegasus logo for a paint/graphics project? | ||

After doing a little research, I don't think this question has been answered. What to do to prevent bubbling when repainting an early S1 tank. I can do without the decals, but am concerned about the paint bubbling due to the construction of the tank. Anyone successfully repainted? Any tips? Thanks, SteveH | ||

i have an M2 but like the looks of the X1 or S1 dash and flyscreen a lot better. are there big differences between the layout of the gages or the dimensions of the flyscreen between X1 and S1? is there anything i need to do the swap other than the dash panel and the flyscreen? anyone have any parts laying around? TIA Ken | ||
| BadS1 |
Ken you'll need to get a X1 dash cause the size of your speedo is larger then what will fit in a S1 dash.Then all you'll need to pick up is a X1 fly screen and a Tach for a M2.You can pick up a used Tach from a 99 or newer X1 or S3 and it will work just fine but the low fuel light won't work. | ||
| BadS1 |
That funny you posted today 11:14 am and I posted today 11:14 pm.LOL | ||
| Socoken |
is there a reason the tach on my M2 wont work? its a factory tach, same size as the speedo. thanks Dana, ill buy you a beer, sportbike day? Ken |
