Seems like I've seen a thread about swapping wheels from an XB to a tube frame. Searching here for a particular thread is an odd experience. Any help on this? What's become of Marc (Purpony)? | ||

He’s still around. The search function of this website has always sucked. https://engineeredvelocity.com/product/95-02-buell -tube-frame-to-xb-wheels-front-suspension-conversi on/ | ||

Thanks,and yes the search function is hard to navigate.Tried sending him a PM on the machined front pulley. No response.Checked out his old site Mcmoto werks and it's changed. | ||

I usually have the best results searching on google. Just type in the keywords you want and type in Site:whateverwebsite.com in with them, and it'll only show you results from that one website. | ||

Continuing on this website you've linked Red93stang, Does anyone have any experience installing the front isolator brace? Is it a difficult install, I see it has something to do with removing the dogbones to install the piece. https://engineeredvelocity.com/product/95-02-buell -front-isolator-brace/ | ||

I've never heard anyone saying anything about it being difficult. You're not actually removing any of the tie bars, you're just removing one bolt from one at the top of the motor, and bolting the back of the brace down with it. Same with the front isolator bolt. Haven't gotten to install one personally though, but it's on my list. Also worth noting that the website lists it for the old style isolator only, not sure if you've updated yours. I see his ebay listing says to let him know which brace you need, I'm assuming it's referring to old/new, but the website doesn't give you the option, and the ebay version will cost you an extra $20 plus tax on top of that, so the website is a much better option. I sent him a message to ask, so I'll see what he says. (Message edited by upthemaiden on February 22, 2021) |
