Looks great Jim! We are on similar paths, I am going to Hayabusa territory myself after I finish building this one with a goal of 260+. Can't wait to see you run. Scott |

Jim, Those look like S&S ProStock cases. Did you have anytrouble fitting the front shock mount or shock around those cases? The sump is wider on these cases and I am not sure if it messes up the shock mount. I am mocking up a set of these cases in a X1 frame, but haven't gotten there yet. Jeff |

Looks great Jim, Maybe we will finally have another Buell to give us some competition! I think you made a lot of smart moves with the new parts you chose. |

Jim - The bike looks great! Curious, are you at all worried about having that much weight that high up and that far back on the bike? Do you think that it will give you more potential for a high speed wobble? Great work, keep the pictures coming. Scott |

Crank sensor done, new oil tank down low as I needed that space for fuel and water pumps, and a chain guard as required by rules.Did some more plumbing now that oil tank is done. Now need to start laying out wiring.

I agree, just cool as hell. So is this what you've been building around those parts from Jerry's garage? I'd like to see this thing run some day. |

What meet will you be at this year, FMJ? 215+ mph looks very doable with this S&S recipe. Decent. Given the total number of Buells built against the growing number of Buell records in the books (compared to other pushrod brands) I wish you and the other 4-cam bumpstick Buellers all the best in LSR. |

Jim, What do you need to get the beast to a speed run, either Bonneville, Texas Mile, or Maxton? |

Money!! Need to sell that S-1. |

Well, I'd kick in a C note toward seeing your magnificent S2 run next year, no strings attached. Please PM me with a mailing address FMJ. Want a copy of my RR1000 fairing, or going with something faster? |

I have an RR fairing worked over by Don McCaw,just need to get it fitted.As soon as the S-1 sells I will get back to work on the S-2.Thanks for the offer but no. Hopefully divorce will be final soo,my workers comp cases will be settled and the dang city will pay me the money I am owed. |
