I was wondering if a stock breather from a 1200 Harley will for on a 1200 buell. Iv seen a lot of good deals out there but not sure if they will Mach up. I know there the same motor but not sure if it changes from bike to bike. I want to get that big black box off the side and run somthing a little more low profile. |

Yes with some modifications an oval shaped sportster air cleaner will fit. I even had an 80" evo big twin (round) air cleaner on mine at one point. As discussed in your other thread, there are aftermarket options that will fit the Buell without modifications.... |

She'll what mods are we talking about ? I just had a proublum. I had her idling in the driveway just earlier and, well, my driveway is at a bit of a slant and she drifted down the drive and tiped over on the breather box side. ;( the box is shattered to peaces. Now I have to do somthing. Any help would be great. |

#1 rule of Buell: Never let your bike idle facing even slightly downhill! Thats you bikes way of tell you, you are not paying it enough attention. It's like a spoiled child, It throws itself on the ground and throws a tantrum. |

Point taken! Now what to do? Any recommendation on a good epoxy to put the box back together? And where to find blinker, and new break hand lever? |

Ok so I found a Harley nightsteer 1200 breather. What mods do I need to do to make her fit my thunderbolt ? |

I'd take it apart, put all the pieces in a plastic bag, and visit your local HD dealer and see what they recommend. Take the new breather with you too. They have a little more time on their hands this time of year. Welcome to BadWeb |
