Hi this is my first Buell - just purchased a 1997 S1

Does anyone have a list of Buell updates that should be done - not sure of history on the bike...or will the HD/Buell dealer be able to tell by vin ?

thanks in advance

i have a 96 s1 and just called my nearest buell dealer (200 mi away).they ran my vin and said there were 3 items that need replaced. the lady said she would order them and that i could bring the bike in and have them installed. no charge, what a deal!

Lots you can do to make a great bike wonderful. I will never sell my S1

What type of riding do you do and what other bikes do you have or owned in the past...
