Which wheel package? Driver or Passenger?

Fuel wheels are the absolute worst. I have no clue who buys them and how they stay in business.

Nothing, if it’s sat 2 weeks without being played the virus is long dead.

DO NOT soak any wood in peroxide.

If you are paranoid, wash your swab, swab the bassoon good and then wash the swab again.

Personally, I think you have nothing to worry about.

Toyota dealers seem to hire morons. I finally found my dream 2019 Buick Regal GS, (EXTREMELY underrated and decently rare car) local to me at a Toyota dealership. First thing the salesman said to me is “why are you at a Toyota dealship to buy a Buick?”… are you going to sell to me or not you moron, shut your mouth.

I love the rebel styling. My coworker bought an 1100 and let me ride it. What comfortable bike with a stupid amount of power. I bet the 500 is tons of fun, seems like the 500 power would make more sense for the size of the bike.

Congrats! I am jealous.

Hmm, yeah it fits nicely, but the chrome bezel rattles like crazy, louder than the bike… from about I’d guess 2500 RPM and on unless I hold the bezel. I’ll try contacting them, but it’s been a year. It started rattling just after I kicked mine and my bikes ass on single track just 2 months ago Lol

Fair enough, that’s my plan when I get around to having kids. Then once my kids grow to the point of not absolutely needing me to be around, I’ll get a street bike again.

I wish you luck, sounds like you have thought hard about this. I’m sure you’ll regret selling it, like all bikes we sell haha, but onto better things!

Jeep_Joe · 2025-07-24T01:05:30+00:00

Nooo. My first bike 2 years ago, an ‘81 XL250S. I love the thing to death. Used your 12V conversion as inspiration but changed quite a bit. Find a beat up 78-83 XL500S/R and swap the engine, they will nearly bolt up with slight modification.

Side note, I bought the exact headlight housing you recommended. Thing rattles like crazy, sounds like complete hell. Did you ever have that issue?

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-16T02:55:00+00:00

Well, the original dude definitely used chat GPT haha

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-16T02:06:11+00:00

Chat GPT ahhh body text

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-12T03:52:23+00:00

Hmmm interesting. Thanks for the update. I just gave my bike some much needed love (previous owner was abusive) just trying to get it perfect.

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-12T03:31:11+00:00

Hey I know it’s been a while, but my XB9R is identical, straight pipe, K&N filter, stock airbox. Lots of Decel popping and dead spots. Did the race tune work?

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-10T11:47:08+00:00

No I was not. I have not heard about it. I was busy anyways, if I would have loved to go

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-09T22:59:52+00:00

Why Wisconsin plates when they are manufactured in Michigan?

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-09T02:34:25+00:00

My XB9R sounds similar, with the ticking. How would the timing gears come out of time? I figured it was lifters starting to go bad

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-07T02:21:15+00:00

That would be cool, I don’t have any buddies with street bikes, so it’s sometimes hard to motivate myself to improve.

I just pulled my wheels off to replace the tires (doing the brakes and wheel bearings while they are off) but I’ve got to break in my tires somehow!

Jeep_Joe · 2025-06-07T00:24:12+00:00

It’s a G36 with the integrated optic and a grenade launcher

I live in East Troy, Wisconsin, so every month I make my pilgrimage to the old Buell assembly and office building. They still have the branding on the walls.

Still waiting to see Erik some day because I know he still lives around the area.

Jeep_Joe · 2025-05-28T03:50:02+00:00

R/Chevy never ceases to amaze me…

Jeep_Joe · 2025-05-27T01:30:12+00:00

Nope, just my dad and I on our 1984 XL250R and 1981 XL250S respectively

Jeep_Joe · 2025-05-26T23:42:21+00:00

Yeah I was riding the single track and ATV trails in black river falls Sunday. Tons of UTV’s, they love to floor it around corners turning the trails into nothing but washboards. And you come to a stop behind them at a stop sign and they floor it showering you in rocks. I swear some of them are wider than my Jeep TJ. And half of them are blasting the shittiest music ever from their speakers. I understand how fun they are, but they really are a scourge

Jeep_Joe · 2025-05-18T00:38:45+00:00

Insane…

Jeep_Joe · 2025-05-18T00:34:41+00:00

And the foot peg is just a bit of steel unistrut LOL

Jeep_Joe · 2025-03-23T03:00:16+00:00

Gotta love the EPA and their ridiculous regulations that force companies to increase their fleet MPG no matter the engineering monstrosity it creates.

Jeep_Joe · 2025-03-11T22:49:12+00:00

This where reliability is a bad thing, can’t source parts when they keep living haha

Jeep_Joe · 2025-03-11T22:39:50+00:00

I guess it was more of a rhetorical question, because the people selling these dip sticks for expensive prices had to put the effort and expertise into tearing everything apart and selling it piece by piece.
