When last reported the Blast was off the road indefinitely with a intake leak problem. I was gonna store it & save for another bike to commute on. Well, wifey is considering a new job that pays substantially less. Consequently, new bike is out of the question. So, I fixed the Blast & added a Givi rack (Thx to Evilbetty) & a top box. So I now have a new commuter bike & the X1 for fun! (The Blast is a lot of fun too) If anyone mentions CV carb's to me for a few weeks I will probably not react well! Thx to Swampy, EZ & Gearheaderiko for their help with the repair. The Blast lives! I will post a picture once I have changed the oil & removed 6 months of garage grime. Chris C | ||

The rack is shown here ( On Evilbetty's post) http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/201 64/636892.html?1308875928 IDK the exact model # but I believe it is one of their generic racks. The top box I purchased is a B370 39 liter monolock box. It came with a different base plate that went onto the rack with just a little finagling. I hope this answers your question. Chris C | ||

OK: 1st test run. 93MPH (Indicated) Much better that its previous best of 89MPH (indicated) Idles & rev's well. Is solid, stable and FUN! Chris C | ||

Things just keep getting better! Long story short: I (we) bought a new freezer yesterday. in order to fit it in the garage I had to clean up the 1/2 I use for the bikes. Lo & Behold! Inside a miscellaneous storage box I came across the Superbrace I purchased about 18 months ago. Install was easy but test ride must wait until tomorrow evening as I have imbibed at least 3 beers today. Chris C | ||

Very responsible of you! "I dont know officer. I just installed this fork brace and now the bike wobbles all over the road" |
