Hahaha..... several were snagged during La Perga ...... I remember when Mark told me "and get those old posters out of here" (the Red RS1200 posters) that so offended Hutchinson & Co. I did precisely what they asked. | ||

I believe it is on the ignition box...I'd go look at mine but since I thunderstormed it, it runs an S1W Buell "race" box. I may have kept the old one on the shelf though...I'll dig next time I'm out there (if I remember...getting old SUCKS). | ||

Now that snowmobile racing is done I'll be getting back on this project. I have the handle bars and controls done. I have to do some wiring for the flasher and extra stuff like lights and heated grips. I dropped off the body work off at my paint guy today. I have all the decals except the two for the tank cover. I'm waiting for my graphic design guy to finish them. Matt  | ||

What are those bar mounts they look like they were made for different type of bar? Have you got a pic of the brake and adapter? | ||
| Loose1 |
The fork mounts are just cheep Chinese clip ons. It was cheaper and easier to buy than make. What do you mean by the brake adapter? I made one for the front caliper because it has a Ducati wheel and rotor. That is further back in the thread. Matt | ||
| Johnod |
Yes the one for the front caliper, never saw the finished product. Only saw a pic in the mill. | ||

That works. Thanks. | ||

I had my guy make some tank decals for my yellow jacket s2. The paint shop put them slightly in the wrong place but they look good. Cost me $30 for the decals and design work. He had to cut the colors separate so the spacing wasn't perfect between "Buell" and "American motorcycles" by the body shop either. I could get him to cut you some for $20 if you're interested. Any color.  (Message edited by Williamscottrobertson on March 20, 2017) | ||

A couple of questions. What's the right setup for a super trap. It doesn't have any disks or end cap on it. Anybody have a suggestion for mirrors. I want one's with turn signals. I want to us the original signal location for driving lights. I was looking at these but I'm a little worried about quality.

Matt, I've got an S2 Supertrapp, I'll dig it out and take some pic's for ya. | ||
| Screamer |
Matt, I'm pretty sure I have new disc kits and end caps for Supertrapps. Send a note... | ||
| Loose1 |
PM sent | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Matt, you still need the pictures? | ||
| Loose1 |
Screamer is working on the parts for me. How many discs are you running? | ||
| Bluzm2 |
Matt, Mine has 14 disc's. If memory serves, there were two end caps, a closed one and an "open" one with a hole in the center. Mind is the open version. This one is for the stock 2" header that wraps around under the front of the motor like the 2 1/2" race header. I didn't like the sound of the ST at all. It was kind of "fluffy" sounding. That's why I switched to a modified V&H. I've got a race header on it now, the V&H was shortened and the curved section was cut off. I expanded the short straight section to slip over the header collector. | ||

I've got all the decals now. The bodywork is in the paint shop. I got the mirrors and driving lights mocked up. I made a mount for the lights. The one it came with didn't look all that good. All the wiring is done. I just got a front rim today. I need to fix up the rear and powdercoat them. Screamer sending me the disks and end cap for the super trapp. I have a uly front brake line coming because the S2 has the wrong size for the xb master cylinder. And some pics Matt   | ||

I can dig it! Reminds me of the handlebar and dash setup on my last S2T. [Img]http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n94/phelan_z06/ Project%20Aurora/4F57DBA5-AB2C-40FA-9046-395619DF5 826_zpsrmatgv1y.jpg[/img] | ||

Ross ,were did that S2T go? | ||
| Johnod |
That's funny I was just going to ask the same thing. | ||
| Phelan |
I pulled it apart with plans to rebuild it from scratch, and sold off all the parts I didn't plan on reusing, but then became enamored with the XBs, so I used the money from selling off bits to build my Uly instead, and sold the rest of the S2 to Dan. If I decide to build another S2 some day, I will build it from scratch, instead of starting with a running bike, so that if I decide not to rebuild it, at least I'm not taking a running bike off the road. On the other hand, I have been doing my part to keep S2s and other Buells on the road instead being inoperable due to broken parts  . | ||

It's pretty much done. I'm just waiting on battery. Also the saddle bag gaskets are in poor condition and I would like to find a different style to help with their sealing issue. Some before and after pic's. Matt     | ||
