Looking to sell my no expense spared, cherry molten orange/nuclear blue S1W. You won’t find another like this. I’ll probably regret this but I have too many bikes. I’ve got so much time and money invested into building this bike. I’ve gone over it end to end and everything is perfect. Located in Augusta, GA. $5,500 This is the list, probably forgetting some stuff but you get the idea. All new gaskets, starter, cylinders, everything. 1998 Buell S1W Title in hand 15,783mi 100 miles on Hammer 1212cc kit Buell Race Header Freshly Packed Buell Race Muffler Forcewinder intake w/new filter Rebuilt and Gold Valved WP Shock 6800RPM Buell Race CDI Box Heads cleaned and valves lapped Pigtails on cylinder oil drain tubes James one piece rocker box gaskets Spurgin Oil Cooler Steering Dampener One off custom banke controls Billet Sprung Footpegs Crg levers Crg lane splitter bar end mirrors Driven DR3 Grips Renthal Fatbars and custom Fatbar adapter Corbin Seat Less than 300 miles on new tires Chrome covers and rocker boxes Deluxe CVP Kit CV40 Carb Updated primary tensioner Bronze oil pump gear Billet Zippers Trap Door Transmission New Updated crank seal Latest engine mounts front and rear Braided rear brake line Pegasus Front Axle Covers in Black Pegasus Frame Plugs New fork seals and fluid LED signal bulbs and relay EBC front brake rotor Aftermarket rear brake rotor Shoari Lithium Battery Buell Carbon Fiber heat shield Buell Carbon Fiber Rear hugger Carbon fiber pulley cover Carbon fiber lower belt guard Complete matched twin tail set up Matched manta tank Two extra sets of custom made decals I have more photos available and a run and ride video I will post to YouTube shortly.

any chance you want to sell the twin tail setup separate? | ||
| Luke_m |
Beautiful! Best of luck with the sale. | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
Might would separate the twin tail in a month or so if the bike doesnt sell. Ill let you know. | ||
| Buelljunkie |
Wow. As in...Wow! Unfortunately I cannot buy another bike that will sit in my garage unridden. As Luke said...beautiful bike, and well cared for. Best of luck with your sale.. | ||
| Gvelox |
You sold your Thunderbolt and now your selling your Lightning, both of which you put a lot of care into. Are you moving away from Buells? What are you keeping instead? | ||

I have a YJP S2 that’s pristine that doesn’t get ridden that I should probably sell. I have an 1125r that’s very nice that doesn’t get ridden much I should probably sell too. I have another white on white S1W, that I just like better and really having two S1s is ridiculous lol. I recently bought two relatively rare moto Guzzis that have been getting a good bit of attention from me lately (thanks to jolly for turning me on to Guzzis haha). I bought a 18 Ural Gear up in the fall for a steal that i could not pass up. Urals are the best for riding with the kids. And I have my Kawi gpz750 turbo. So, 8 bikes is getting a little crazy. I could use the money from a couple bikes to pay off the ural. However, the buell market is so soft it’s sad. I’ve got about $6500 wrapped up in this one, probably $4k into my S2 and there’s no way I could get close to that for it. I put a price I’m comfortable selling for, knowing I’ll never be able to replace them. :/ Long story short, no I’m not getting away from buells entirely but, I really need to do something about this hoarding haha! | ||

what is YJP? | ||

Steve... Yellow Jacket Pearl ... color Beautiful Nuclear and Orange S1W.... well done, somebody will be pleased. GLWS! | ||

Wow, I'm really impressed. Not so much that you have eight motorcycles, anybody can buy a bunch of bikes. What impresses me is that you manage to put so much care and effort into them. Most people, myself included, would be hard pressed to do that with one bike much less eight. Thanks for the response. | ||

damn, i would love this. but i just can't do it right now. | ||

I'm still digging that Cirrus Vision. | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
Thanks Court. You may see in the news this week they are grounding the whole fleet. One caught fire on the ground in CA recently and they narrowed down tbe cause to these little microchips that are attached to the 3.5mm audio jacks. Apparently they can overheat and create a fire hazard without tripping a breaker. So, emergency AD will likely come out Monday and I’ll have to ferry it to Knoxville to have the 3.5mm jacks disabled and chips removed. It’s a flying iPhone, awesome aircraft that does something no other aircraft is capable of, all with the added safety of an airframe parachute system. This is #135 of 148 or so in existence. They are cutting their teeth on a few issues. | ||

Better half went through that with her Falcon 17 years ago . . . they'll sort it out. I've been getting the bug to jump back in and noticed the Vision immediately. It sounds like . . . of all the bugs you could encounter . . . the AD for a chip on the jack will be straightforward to resolve. Have fun ! | ||

Absolutely stunning! Had many S1W’s... nothing of this caliber... PM on the way! | ||
| Jespo_m2 |
I don’t believe messaging is available anymore. Here is my email address: jeremy.esposito@live.com I’m very interested in your S1W! | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
Jeremy, I got your message. I’m working today and tomorrow tenatively. I’ll give you a call. I’ve got one interested person, he’s in Miami and it may be a month or so before he can buy it. If you can move any quicker, I’d be game. -William | ||
| Jespo_m2 |
Thanks for the update! I can move on it quicker than a month. Call at your convenience! Thanks! | ||

| Williamscottrobertson |
It went to Jeremy and I believe he sold it and the Patriot Missle to Kaplan  I’m sure they are both in good hands! I see photos of her pop up time to time. I plan to make another one of these days I hope!! https://youtu.be/zfBGrKL3aOg | ||
| Williamscottrobertson |
You wouldn’t believe this bike when I bought it. The intake valves were rusted shut.   | ||
| Luke_m |
Very cool. I watched the video a handful of times when Kaplan posted it, had no idea it was the same bike. Looks great, I wish I could have scooped it up. |
