Author Message   1313 Posted on Sunday, October 16, 2005 - 01:09 pm:        One of the advantages of organizing all of my printed Buell materials is finding old information that people have questioned. In this weekends unearthing I offer the elusive S2 rearsets and clip ons. From the June 1996 issue of Thunder Alley: The April 1996 issue of Iron Works had an article on the same bike but no better pics. A faxed article from the November 1996 issue of Iron Works had some more information on the rearsets from Crossroads Custom Machine: And here are the clip ons: I believe FMJ said that he has a set on one of his S2's. I have no idea if they are available form Crossroads anymore, but I would think it would think that they would have saved the program used to machine them. 1313   Kevyn Posted on Sunday, October 16, 2005 - 06:14 pm:        aomy????   Firemanjim Posted on Monday, October 17, 2005 - 12:08 am:        I have those very ones sitting on my shelf.Have not tried them out.If anyone wants to borrow them to copy let me know.   Loki Posted on Monday, October 17, 2005 - 01:20 am:        Crossroads is quite the impressive little shop. I got a tour of the facility between Xmas and New Years last. FMJ, got any pics of them?   1320 Posted on Friday, October 21, 2005 - 08:44 am:        Here is a pic of the S2 rearsets I have loaned FMJ for Bonneville. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b22/sepjoe2000/S2Rearsets.jpg   Buellerthanyou Posted on Monday, October 24, 2005 - 12:55 am:        Those are great! I was just wishing for some yesterday. Wish I had a machine shop! Somebody, step up...pretty please!

Send me a PM and I will give you the name since Blake does not want his company mentioned on badweb.   Kevyn Posted on Tuesday, October 25, 2005 - 11:45 am:        ...along the same line, it would be nice to integrate the new sidestand position into the sideplates with the rearsets... Lets just do this once. new sideplates with re-positioned sidestand AND rearsets. I'm in.   Buellerthanyou Posted on Tuesday, October 25, 2005 - 12:52 pm:        How about a set of sideplates with the improved sidestand mount AND pre-machined holes for standard footpeg placement AND holes for rear-set pegs. Then you could move them back and forth at will (with the addition of appropriate shifter rods, etc.). If they could make a good cup of coffee too, they'd be perfect!
