Based on the welded, multi-piece header and the rear brake lever I would say this is a S2. A closer view: 1313 |

I LOVE red. My '95 S2 entering Mosport's Turn 1 during the Ducati Owners club of Canada track rally last May. The most entertaining "touring bike" I've ridden. Here she is in her normal role.

Hello S2 Enthusiasts, i am new at the BWB Forum. I am coming from Germany, Hamburg and i am the owner of the best buell, ever built. It is a 1994 S2. The first owner have bought this bike in USA and imported it directly to Germany. The original color was blue. i have bought the bike in March 2003 with 2003, colored "mint" In the meantime i have made many Mods. Last year, a specialist for Harley Engines; Company M-Tek-Germany, have rebuild and stroked the engine. This year i have colored the body work. I hope you enjoy it. Greetings from Germany

Borsti,nice ride.It is a model year 1995 but was built in 1994.Look at the tag on the steering head,it will give build date.You need to get an S-2 aircleaner backing plate to orient your aircleaner in the proper S-2 direction.You can get a nice billet one from Al at American Sportbike--http://www.americansportbike.com/shop/cgi-bin/cp-app.cgi?usr=51F9872189&rnd=1978 38&rrc=N&affl=&cip=71.128.39.254&act=&aff=&pg=prod&ref=6184&cat=s2air&catstr=HOM E:s2air or look on eBay as they show up all the time.I just sold 2 recently.The original was fiberglass and tilted the back of the aircleaner down to clear your knee better.Later replacements were ABS. |

Yes,I can see yours is an early build as it has the billet triple clamps.Somewhere in the 1995 model run they changed to cast aluminum. |

Somewhere in the 1995 model run they changed to cast aluminum. Jim, Actually the change was to forged aluminum. Best of luck in Aussie-land, 1313 |

Sure,slap the poor fireman around,geez,one little error --- At least you could have awed us all with your Buell knowledge by saying when???? |

At least you could have awed us all with your Buell knowledge by saying when???? My first thought was: Oh, this should be easy. It's gotta be in the parts manual. I checked both my parts manuals didn't see anything telling when the change was made. Then I realized that it wouldn't be that easy, especially considering I no longer have the resources I used to. So, the best response I can come up with as to when Buell changed to the forged triple clamps on the S2 is: When they ran out of their supply of the billet ones! 1313 |

>>>When they ran out of their supply of the billet ones! That's an accurate statement. It was a running change and it'd be a matter of going back through build sheets to see what day/VIN. No time for that at present....all "Elves" are deployed on important missions. The good news is that all the triple clamps work equally well. |

Easy, Glad to be of help with your wheel. Mine's working fine after three years on the S1 track bike. Can't imagine that setup failing. |
