Hey All,

I usually post in the XB section (since I have one) but I also own an '98 XL. I picked up one of my old motorcycle mags and saw a custom XL cafe racer with an S2 fork. Does Buell still manufacture them? And, if anyone else has grafted an old Buell to an even older Sporty, are there any mods required?

Phat J,

Could you elaborate? Since I don't have many mechanical skills, I usually have to pass on the information I get to someone who can actually do this for me, someone with mechanical skills but with little knowledge of Sportys or Buells. Unfortunately, everyone I know rides "Big Twins" (yawn).
