I've just joined, and filled out the 'modifications' section on the application, and got wondering what others had done. My 99 S3 has: - aftermarket taller windscreen - 'wavy' front rotor - I use the larger H-D oil filter - a ribbed aluminum sleeve over the filter for cooling - rocker box breathers - K&N air filter in carbonfibre housing - added Buell rear cylinder fan - an LED flood/spot light mounted on the old air cleaner support to help with night riding - two prong trailer type connection to battery for charger (and electric vest) - replaced signal lights with LEDs (several times) - PO installed a Vance & Hines exhaust; I reinstalled the baffle and packing - heat wrapped upper half of exhaust system - PO chipped the engine - Ventura luggage rack system and headlight protector - weighted handlebar ends - friction-type cruise control - heated hand grips - PO removed inner rear fender - frame plugs - cheap adjustable levers from e-Bay - stock seat fits my butt (from sea to sea in Canada) - H-D oil in engine; Red Line elsewhere - most parts from American Sport Bike or St. Paul H-D You guys? |

I have a 99S3 and have, or HAD some of the same mods. Like I used to have the VH exhaust, but now have a Force. Buell Race CF air cleaner, got that like you do. But then my stuff goes a bit different. -cut and recovered seat to almost no padding and more of a 'hump' in the back -Pingel front strap -Rear shock replaced with a strut -Aircompressor added -Put a firebolt front end on it -Pingel killswitch -Pingel Air-to-Air shifter -different handlebars -Buell Torque grips -Wiseco pistons (IIRC) -S&S rods -Andrews N6 cams -Been dyno tuned by a racer up in PA, Bruce Cronenburger at Shaeffers HD -Extended swingarm -Wheelie Bar -Tiger Express chain guard -Oh yeah, running a chain now -Autometer shift light -got rid of a whole lot of things. Like headlights, turn signals, horn, replaced s3 dash with a single gauge one (forget which Buell its off of), etc etc etc |

More mundane mods I did to mine included the updated (stronger) primary chain adjustment shoe, the improved front muffler mount, and the 2001-up shifter conversion. |

Probably the best mod on my 02 S3T was to change the front sprocket from a 27 tooth to a 29 tooth. |

Fireman - by his vernacular I'd assume he's in Europe. Over there 'chipped' means a tune/ecu (what I picked up from my car days reading English car mags like MAX Power etc...oh those were good rags, lots of topless ladies lol) |
