| Servicing Dealership: |
|
| Performance Mods!: |
Unknown. It's been tagged by a former tuning company called "Garage Built" on the tail and on the triple tree. I plan on rebuilding the motor soon, we will see what's been done then.
|
| Problems/Miles (Please be specific): |
I bought the bike with just less then 23,000 miles. The exhaust blew the O2 sensor out and had to buy a whole new system and drill out the broken exhaust studs.
There seems to be a slight knock while idling. Doesn't effect performance but it still worries me.
|
| Other Mods/Misc/Customization.: |
This bike is my new project and it will be for the future. I plan on getting some crazy mileage out of it.
|
| Favorite Rides (Roads and Routes): |
I ride to Phoenix from LA about once a month. A very boring long ride. Other then that I'm only just learning the roads in Cali.
|
| Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
My motorcycle life has always been on Kawasaki sportbikes. 1994 Ninja 250, 2007 ZZR600, then 2007 ZX6R. I ride a lot. The ZZR had 17,500 after the first summer, I bought it new.
Belt drive, HVA's, and a harley engine all adds up to some cost effective mileage. Wrap that in a Buell frame and you cant lose!
|
| How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
By building them again!
|
| Life History/Philosophy: |
Be happy. Two wheels does that for me.
|
| Top speed on 2 wheels (mph): |
170mph (probably closer to 150mph actual)
|
| Preferred engine oil (brand/grade): |
