New member, Hello. Here is a shot of the 1998 S1 I adopted today. My first Buell, I've rode it three times and I'm so hooked it's not even funny. Its got 6,600 miles and its tricked out pretty nice.

Nice find! Now for the bad news...

You're new addiction can only be fed by buying more bikes and modifying them with shiny stuff and go-fast parts!

Welcome to the club! : )

Great looking bke.

From what I can see in the picture I see a chain conversion, new style swingarm, Crossroads (maybe) swingarm stay, slip on, shock?

Oooh...purdy. Welcome to the club! one of my co-workers has a 98 S1WL that he's planning on selling at the end of the year...I must have it. I can finally afford it...but at the same time there's that damned responsible voice in the back of my head going, 'What do you need a THIRD Buell for?'

-=smacks conscience around=-

Not sure about some of the stuff.
Carbon Fiber front and rear fender. Chain conversion, new swing arm, penske rear shock, pipe. Heads are ported and polished, matched to a new set of cams.

Thanks. Another mod to add to the list, the fuel tank, although I'm not sure why, it looks thinner than the original which I have as well as all the other stuff that was replaced. Belt drive, fenders, seat, carb, a whole jet kit, exhaust gaskets, five sets of new screamin eagle plugs. I'm sure you can tell I'm really excited to own this bike.

Brad-
Put down your mouse and step away from the PC, then repeat after me-
"I can only ride one at a time, I can only ride one at a time"

One more thing, the bike was original bought from Dick Farmer's Harley-Davidson in Orlando, FL. I live in Las Vegas.

Glad you found us Shawn, but be warned Buells are like having kids, your life is never the same again!

Hey Andy, is she the R or S version?
If the R please post a pic in S mode.
