Buell Lightning description

I reluctantly am posting up my favorite bike yet, a 2000 Buell X1 Lightning. It is America's only Sportbike, one which I define as a "muscle bike." It sounds and feels much like a '68 Camaro with a 454, but one that can also corner. It has a 1203cc V-twin engine, with fuel injection and a 5 speed transmission. The torque on it is amazing and you will never feel it lacking, I assure you. 

Buell X1 Lightning
-~17.7k miles
-1203cc V-twin
-5 speed transmission
-Fuel Injected
-Race ECM and Tune
-Clean and Clear Title

-Tires have plenty of tread on them. Can take pics if you'd like. 

Work that has been done on it:
-Primary sprocket/pulley seal has been replaced (was leaking)
-The infamous and commonly failed Crank Seal has been replaced with a improved two-lip design.
-Starter gasket replaced
-New Baker front pulley that was bumped I think up one tooth by the shop, should help with highway speeds/mpg
-New drive belt
-New EBC pads front and rear. 

It starts up every time, idles and runs very well, all through the rpm range. Went on a 45 minute cruise the other day without hiccup. The good news is that I just replaced that stupid crank seal that is the most common laborious failure on these bikes. It brakes well, turns great, rides smooth, and is a joy to be on. The clutch engages well and haven't had issues with it or the transmission. It also has a neutral indicator light, turn signals, horn, flash2pass, high and low beams, kill switch, lockable steering, gas light, oil/engine light, speedo, tach, and trip.

British motorcycle design studio Xenophya Design and product designer Ellis Pitt have teamed up to produce a new company, Mac Motorcycles. Based out of Upton-Upon-Severn in Worcestershire, England, Mac Motorcycles will produce a line of bikes powered by Buell’s air-cooled single cylinder 492cc engines used in the Blast, with a tubular backbone frame. On the company’s website, Pitt describes its bikes as being simple to maintain, include references and details from choppers and bobbers and feature “Harley posture, flat-track manners, Ducati handling”.

Results From Day 1 Of World Superbike Testing At Phillip Island

Mon, 17 Feb 2014

Eugene Laverty, aboard his Voltcom Crescent Suzuki GSX-R1000, led the field today as the first day of World Superbike testing got underway at the Phillip Island circuit in Australia, site of the first race of the 2014 season. Under sunny skies and perfect weather conditions, Laverty adapted quickly to his new ride after spending last season aboard the Aprilia RSV4 Factory. The Suzuki offered incredible feedback and allowed him to push right out of the gates, ultimately setting a fastest lap time of 1:30.513.
