 Seeing my bike this dissasembled makes me depressed, except knowing that I have parts on the way to fix everything. That is good. The reason I have the rear wheel off:  If you can't see well, I had two small rocks embedded in my belt, so I think it was only a matter of time before I had a catastrophe.

Sorry, couldn't resist.  Good to hear you got all the parts on the way. Hope you're still on the up and up. | ||

"NO DISASSEMBLE JOHNNY FIVE"!! | ||

Yeah that was funny seeing the red text. Nice one. Just got the stitches out today, feeling better every day. Thanks for the laugh, Sam | ||

That text is in order, that looks WAY worse than what my knee did  . Just remember, if you come up with a few extra bolts or nuts and it still runs, you just found a way to make the bike lighter, but dont try doing that, bad things will likely happen eventually. | ||

It just looks so sad... How did the belt get damaged? Was it before the "incident?" | ||
| Samiam |
I'm assuming the belt happened at the same time, since my bike came to rest in a gravel shoulder and I am still finding small rocks everywhere in the bike. No way to be sure though. Sam | ||

good thing is your still available to make laugh | ||
| Samiam |
Yeah no kidding. I feed damn fortunate. I definitely have someone looking out for me up there. Sam | ||

About the rocks...I have had 2 wind up in mine. I thought the belt guards were supposed to stop that. NOW IS THE TIME TO CUSTOMIZE!!!! Although it looks like you have already done a LOT of cool mods. | ||
| Samiam |
Yeah the only customization is going to be a black primary cover. I really like how the XB9 cover is black. I wonder why it's not offered for the 12? <.02> Perhaps engine cover/primary cover and frame colors could be a option in the future when you're ordering your bike from the dealer..... </.02> Oh yeah I also ordered barends. I don't need to bend another handlebar. Expect the best but prepare for the worst! Sam | ||

Nice strip down, How are the rear engine mount rubbers?. Mine seem to be going downhill at a fast rate, I am considering nolathane ones to stop the tearing. Doc | ||

New12r, is that the new Buell unicycle I keep reading about???  | ||

 The other half. | ||
| New12r |
is that the new Buell unicycle I keep reading about??? Yeah, I figure I would put a seat where the rear hugger goes and really practice wheelies. Sam, I healed faster than you tho, I just flipped my bike showing off!  | ||
| New12r |
Doc, The rear mount is tearing, I am replacing it but I have to wait until Matco comes on Wed. to get the ball end allen socket to get the bolts out. |
