Can anyone tell me if this looks like it would fit my S1W bent mine when I dumped it. Found it on ebay. Stock shifter from tube frame Buell,exact year unknown as I have had 3 S-2's and 2 S-3's,not to mention boxes of parts from eBay.Good condition,chrome good,looks to be unbent.

i think it is firemanjim who is selling it??

looks like the old shifter from my 98S1W, but hard to tell, the S2s looked real similar!

i changed mine to the new X1 style shifter, polished up real nice too!

Had a couple of e-mails with Mr.Dean and agreed to sell him the shifter for a whopping 5.00 to aid a downed Bueller.I had to cancel the auction to do this and he apparently thought on seeing this I was not going to sell to him.Here is his e-mail to me and my relplies.

"where is my invoice for this item........I thought we agreed on a price ???????????????????????????????? for the buell shifter piece......im the guy you emailed that broke his in a wreck"
My answer.--
"Your e-mail came across as a bit agitated.---

And as I am not in business of selling parts I have no invoice to send.And I am at work right now so cannot spend all my time on a computer,I was going to send you an e-mail with the info when I could get the time.I was only trying to help out a fellow Buell rider in need,so your message was percieved by me to be accusatory,agitated,angry,and unexpected.Jim."
His reply--
"dion't have time for your pre madona ..................keep your shifter"
So was I too sensitive??Course now I get to relist on eBay.

Firemanjim,
Another case of "No good deed will go unpunished".

i love that expression, it's soo true!! it's just some peoples nature (like mine too) to continue to be a good doobie and take the beating! i try to make up for it by always being courteous to people trying to do me a favor even if i don't want it!

FMJH:

He talks to you like that again, let me know. I can impact his supply of Buell parts in perpetuity.

No call for that type of an attitude.

I can ride motorcycles anywhere, have stuck around Buells for the people. That attitude is unwelcome.

That's nothing,you should see the shellacing I am taking from Kent Riches from Airtech for expressing my opinion of his customer service in defense of another land speed rider.The P.M. he sent me was even better.Check it out here

Shifter; the "flat steel" chromed look makes it look "early style" to me. The shifter on my S3 was a sand-cast piece AFAIR.

As to the bodywork - just confirms to me what I'd been thinking before; I will not be buying anything from Airtech ... ever.
