Buell Firebolt description

Hey guys, I'm selling my old race bike that's been hanging around in my garage for 7 years. Here's the details.
I bought this bike from my good friend who was on the same team as me back in 2007. He had it as his street bike. I tore it apart as it had 21000 miles on it to upgrade the crankshaft to get the displacement of a 1200. I had Hals Harley Davidson of Milwaukee do all the work.

All said and done this is what went down:
-The old crankshaft's crankpin was 1" so we upgraded to the later model XB's 1-1/8" crank pin. Before they installed it back into the case 7 pounds of steel was removed form the crank to increase HP.
-The top end got new piston rings and gaskets after a light honing as the cylinders were in good shape.
-New valves were installed after a multi angle valve job.
-A true chain conversion kit was fitted on the bike.
-A race ecu was also installed, (not the wimpy ones either)
-The front forks on the stock 03 were narrower so i decided to buy forks from a later model Buell off of ebay.
-The machinists at Hals advised me to switch the primary gears and chain to achieve more hp so those are new too.
-The bike pulls pretty hard! 98 hp and 113 foot pounds of torque at the tire.

So after all this work was done I could not wait to get it out on the track. I raced it 7 times at Road America and Blackhawk farms before fucking Harley Davidson pulled the plug on Erik Buell. For the past 7 years I put less than 7k miles on it. As of mid September it was officially titled to me so I went riding around on it. I found that I'm way to big for it and it will sit in my garage for the next decade...

The vin is a xb9r so thats a bonus as insurance is cheaper than the 12, even though it has more power than the stock 12.

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.

A Man of LOVE

Fri, 24 Oct 2008

I had a unique opportunity this week to sit down with Oliver Shokouh, the founder of the Love Ride, only days before the 25th anniversary of the purportedly largest one-day rally in the world, kicks-off this coming Sunday, October 26. First and foremost I’m very grateful for Oliver to set aside over half an hour of his precious time so close to the event. Not only does he head-up this massive event, he’s also busy running the very busy and successful Harley-Davidson/Buell of Glendale (California).
