Hey...You USA guys are lucky...There is an S2 basket case on Ebay right now that i would grab if shipping etc wasnt such a hassle to canada...Good luck some one...Hb | ||
| Rex |
working on it....thanks, REX | ||
| Onahog |
What #0000 is it Rex?...Just for the S2 owners list of surviving units..Hb | ||
| White95s2 |
I was considering buying it for parts, but now I'm thinking about going the other direction and finding a deal on a ZX6R and putting the S2 in the living room in a glass case. | ||
| Pizzaboy |
im glass casing my S2 next summer also... except the replacement bike is going to have different numbers its going to be more like 1125 =] hahaha | ||
| White95s2 |
The 1125 has a Rotax in it, doesn't it? It might be the best motor on the planet, but after getting stuck in the middle of a lake with not one, but TWO dead Rotaxes, there's no way in hell I'll depend on one. Maybe after 5 years of 1125 success, but for now I'll take a cheap little ZZR or ZX-R and go play  | ||

The S2 is a bike that needs to be on the road. Don't "glass case" them. If you get to the point that you don't want to ride them anymore let me know.  | ||
| 97s1 |
I'd like to get the PM wheels! | ||
| Pizzaboy |
well skinner i suppose it would depend on the definition of the glass casing to happen. mine will turn into an 'every once in a while' bike. one that wont get many miles. i would prefer to hold on to it since i like the bike so much, and cant get the money it really is worth at the moment, and i REALLY dont want to see it chopped up. mine will be an S2 that will last a long time and be held in safe keeping | ||
| Rex |
someone needs to win the bike to put it back on the road as a complete S2 bike. To tear it apart is a shame.......all it really needs is a motor....rex | ||
| Ratbuell |
...and it's the perfect time to build a light-flywheel Thunderstorm motor for it. The S2 chassis really responds well to extra power  | ||
| Rex |
Looks like I won it. Anyone know where this town is in California? | ||
| Onahog |
Hey ,Right On Rex...Good ta see a BWB member snag it up...Hb | ||
| Pizzaboy |
yep i checked; its south california almost to los angeles and such | ||
| 97s1 |
I might be in l.a. tom. where is it? if you were in az. I could pick itup for you if it was local. I have a Moto trailer. | ||
| 97s1 |
I just saw you're local to me. Call me and maybe we can set something up. eight zero five four three one three seven nine one. My name is phil. Call me at 9am cuz I'll be leaving after I visit Bart if I'm going to l.a. for sure. | ||
| Rex |
Thanks. I will be getting in touch with the seller, haven't heard from them yet. I am driving thru southern cal to northern cal the first week in june and then back from northern cal to arizona. I saw it on a map, and it is basically on my way, so, I will keep you all updated on my progress.....thanks rex | ||

I'm in the LA area - give me a shout if you need a hand with anything. What town was the seller in? - I wasn't watching the auction. AL | ||
| Rex |
I am going to be picking up the bike in Highland Ca. Apparently there was a guy who had several buells, and passed away. the kids were getting rid of his stuff. REX | ||
| Phelan |
can anyone post a link? I know it's sold, but I would like to see the ad just out of curiosity. Thanks. | ||

Rex....Would ya be interested in selling or trading the WP rear shock from it...? I would like one for my 1990 RS1200 restoration....I have a good first style showa on it right now, that I could trade with some $$...Let me no or please consider.Thx..Hankb.. | ||
| Rex |
let me think about it. I will be picking it up on Friday the 13th....Keep asking me...really busy this month...REX are you coming to homecoming? rex | ||
| Smoke |
hank, i think that still isn't the correct shock for your bike. that one has 1 external reservoir and the WP shock on my 92RS has 2 external reservoirs. check it out. tim | ||
| Onahog |
Thx Rex....No, I cant make the home coming..Its a long way away, 1000 or so miles..Just a tad to far to run by myself for just a 2 day event and then turn around to go home 1000 again...Ive bin to road America twice already,so really all I would want to go to see is the Buell Factory... Im pretty busy here right now as well adding an addition onto my shop... The parts for the RS are rolling in now, and Once they all arrive I can get back at it.. Tim, could ya post a close up pic of the rear shock on yours? Any photos I got arent very clear showing the rear shock... Thx guys...Hb |
