|
Servicing Dealership: |

|
Performance Mods!: |
Thunderstorm heads, aftermarket pipes (I have a few I like to interchange), igntion, rev limiter, hypercharger, among other things.
|
Problems/Miles (Please be specific): |
32,000 miles. I don't really have any problems with it. I did when I first got it though. Leaked oil from the breather like a *#@^%. And the oil tank was crap, so I put an aluminum tank on. I make sure every nut and bolt is tight pretty regularly though.
|
Other Mods/Misc/Customization.: |
XB style headlight, Carbon Fiber windscreen, X1 style rear swingarm, Cobin seat, and lots of little cosmetic changes.
|
Favorite Rides (Roads and Routes): |
Since I live so close to it, probably the from my house right off Highway 68, right to Laguna Seca, then over Laureles Grade to Carmel Valley. It's only a 30 minute ride at most, but it can't be beat on a nice day.
|
Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
I wanted to go to the bike races at Laguna and be able to tell mine apart from everybody elses.
|
How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
I think Buell just needs to continue to test what exactly they can squeeze out of these V-twins. Everything else needed for a world class superbike is on the doorstep.
|
Life History/Philosophy: |
Not much of a history to tell. And my philosophy would have to be, "Do what your heart tells you."
|
Top speed on 2 wheels (mph): |
130
|
Preferred engine oil (brand/grade): |
That's a secret
