Problems/Miles (Please be specific): |
Tank and gas cap. Spent so much money on my tank when I should have just paid someone online to make me a carbon fiber cover. Gas cap strips far too easily
|
Other Mods/Misc/Customization.: |
I have a carbon fiber wind shield, carbon fiber, carbon fiber cowl cover, cermachromed exhaust, powder coated rims (front black, rear red) legacy plates with red month sticker, custom oil recycling system (purchased with a horrible hallowed out flashlight as an oil catch. Duel front brakes
|
Favorite Rides (Roads and Routes): |
Redwood Road, Oakland. Hwy 1 California. Hwy 101 Humboldt County to Oregon. Yosemite, South Lake Tahoe
|
Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
First bike I've ever purchased. Inexperienced, it was what I thought was the coolest bike I could afford for my price range. And have taken it upon myself to learn what I can to fix its issues and customize it myself.
|
How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
If they made my bike anymore, yell at whoever designed the tank. Making it out of the same plastic as cutting boards and a weak always stripping gas cap is a huge pain. One that has cost me almost $1,000 and I still haven't fixed them. In the process of making my own tank cover and there is a thread here that has a solution to the gas cap problem.
