maybe if you say TwoBuells three times, you might get faster results -- 'cause keepin' an eye on us would be a mistake. Steve(2)

Thanks Guys. I made the oil tank, had to because of the route I chose for the pipes. It also involved moving the battery a little. Ryan, they aint that loud as it happens, a sort of "basso profundo", I too liked the French Buell with the underseat setup, but wondered how the rubber mounted motor would get on with a frame mounted muffler. Answer, I hung the muff from two "bobbins"(like H-D oiltank mounts) and it works O.K. Sean are yer going to the NMM tomorrow (6th) we`d love to see yer there. As for the Renthals ,I couldn`t get it up the entry. (you explain this to our U.S. friends. |

Miguel no Buell to ride this summer (long story) That's a 300 mile M62, M1, M42 round trip in a stuffy 900 Carlsson so I'll pass but really kind of you to mention it. Another time for sure. Rocket |

I finally got the S1 put back together with the powder coated parts. The color is Laser Blue Metallic and looks really good in the sun. I also finished the tail light assembly. Clear lenses are on order for the signals, should be bright with the LED bulbs. The pulley was drilled by Mike at Low Country HD. Great job he did. Next is swapping out the swingarm for a 2001 arm that I had powder coated gloss black. Off to the KV to see if I can dig up some tips.

No-not blow offs. Way simpler. One on the left is the vent line for the tranny. The one on the right is the puke tank vapor vent. Soundman...... edited by soundman on July 09, 2003 |

Here is another shot. Did this one about 2 years ago. Allows lifting the frame and then dropping the motor. It's ugly but it works Soundman................
