New here to Buell, picked up a 1200 lightning w/ only 4500 miles on it. Have a question, what is in the hole with the plastic plug behind the shifter linkage? Is it a threaded hole? Any knowledge would help, thanx. Oh it's a 2005 xb12s . |

It is tapped and is an alternative linkage pivot point. I lost the plastic part and screwed in an SS set screw. |

Also it's used for Ulysses shift lever mount.

Thanks y'all , I was gonna make a mid footpeg and flip the shifter around as one of my legs is damaged from a previous wreck. I made a mid peg for the right side this morning off of the idler mount for the belt. Thanks again. |

Just be aware that the engine is flopping around on the rubber mounts and it may put your foot to sleep. Or perhaps it's a foot massager? |
