So, I was wondering, how hard is it to tear a tuber down to the frame and rebuild it? I have pretty dang good mechanical skills and all from working on helicopters in the Marines. Im coming home from Iraq in less than two weeks and I need a winter project... Thanks! |

Yeah, Ive done things like wrapping my pipes and brake pads and oil changes, but that is as far as I have gotten. I think the only part that would give me the fits would be spreading the frame to get the drivetrain off those isolators. Is it as daunting a task as it seems? |

There's no need to spread the frame to get the isolators out, once you have all the bolts etc out you just lift the frame off the engine swingarm assembly. Like I said a piece of piss![; )](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/clipart/winker.gif) |

Theres the look of a lot of details in that job Blake, and I really like the color of your cases(my X1 is all black)against whatever color you plan on squirting on it...what color would that be if not the burnished gold/red,which by the way picks up light very nicely. |

so what were all those threads about spreading the frame for the isolators? Is that just for removal of them with the frame still attached to the engine? Thanks! |

that frame spreader crap is for the birds, when doing a teardown/reassemble your best bet is to do the A T C method, search it, its what i did. JSTFRFUN its going to be all black, best looking color on a clean bike. my cases will be powdercoated black next winter. |

No need to spread to get the iso's out. Just make sure the front mount is loose with no oil filter and lift off. I rebuilt my bike with no notes, or pictures after it was apart for over a year. At one time there weren't two parts touching each other. Good luck and have fun. I did get good at searching THIS Site! |

I sent the tank to paint on tuesday he said early next week, it will be ready to rock and roll. Question to n e 1 who knows, is there any special tips to remove the big rusty stock front pulley to mount my baker lightweight 26 tooth unit? i have never had one off? it looks like a 1 7/8, use impact gun, heat? i assume the trans has bearings right behind it.... so no pounding? i just dont wanna mess it up now. huh no comments on the lil tank in the bike yet..... more pics very soon!!! |

Blake I have one of those 26T pulley's from Baker myself. I just used a rattle gun whilst the belt was still on to hold it, remembering that the nut is left hand threaded. You should not need any heat on it, plus there is a seal behind there that may not like it either! Why are you going so low on the gearing? I only had to use that pulley because of my extended wheel base, I'm running a 55T rear pulley. Use some red loctite when you put it back together too as they can come loose. Cheers Jodie |
