EZ's Stock bike Mods:
1)Drill a 1 5/8" hole directly across from the first hole of the stock exhaust on the same side as the stock hole but all the way to the right of it.
2)Rejet 45/170 (some years will have 170 stock - some don't)
3)Shim needle to 0.05 - 2 #4 machined brass washers is close.
4)Do the air box Mod - mild or wild - still keeping the basic look though.
5)Drill air-screw plug out, and bottom screw then turn 2 2/3 turns out.
6)Do primary adjustment - preferably sound method - on the loose side.
7)Make a splitter or buy one - http://scaryfastracing.net/harley.html - see carb tkv.
8)Buy an Yost Tube and put it in your carb - Ebay has them cheap for a CV40 - 2000 era - discard the rest of kit.
Eight simple things to increase the delivery of power on a Buell Blast - making it even more of a Blast to ride!

#1 seems a bit vague.

Directly across from the stock exhaust outlet on the muffler? The way the nose of the muffler is shaped will make it hard to get a good hole cut into it. Won't the pressure of the air moving across a hole in the nose of the muffler at driving speeds pressurize it and make it harder for exhaust to escape?

The back of the muffler where the other hole is already cut - on that face , on the opposite side - lol - making a duel outlet - lol - one to each side.

This forum really needs Sticky posts, photos and youtube videos of all this valuable information.

I would be more than willing to help, but I'm not willing to do some of these things to my bike : )

I plan on doing the Primary adjustment soon, so I can photo / video that one maybe.

Already done on another forum - that's why I know all of this works well in turning your mild mannered Blast into a Blast!

Awesome!

What forum is all of this on? It would sure help some of us visualize these adjustments and modifications!

I'll PM you a link - Blake doesn't like links to other competing Buell forums on this one and I respect that.

Hey Ed, please PM me that link also. I thought I knew most of the blast forums but I don't recall seeing that kind of stuff on the ones I belong to already.

Could I get that link as well, EZ?

Why not Blake host some vids and pics, as well?

Yep, they work great. I've done the first six and the gains were noticeable. Only thing I'd add is throw in a K&N filter while you're at it. I've got the splitter made too, but not installed right now. I had other carb issues, so I took it off. I'll get it back on, but no hurry, its too cold to ride.

Yeah - it was a chilly 56 here today - practically freezing for a Cali guy - lol - I actually think the new Buell Blast air filters - if kept clean will flow as good as a K&N - maybe even a tad better - the trick would be to keep it clean.
