Author Message   Free_bird Posted on Saturday, May 10, 2014 - 09:52 pm:        My latest acquisition is actually my seventh Buell over the years. The previous few were Ulys, but it is nice to be back in the tuber world. This won.t be my daily commuter nor my long distance tourer. I expect to ride it primarily on Texas Hill Country back roads with an occasional trip to work. Are there any significant risk riding solo with a belt guard?   Lynrd Posted on Saturday, May 10, 2014 - 10:11 pm:        More of a risk in running without a lower: sucking in a piece of crap and thrashing the belt at a result. Nice bike, BTW.   Blu1hockey Posted on Saturday, May 10, 2014 - 10:29 pm:        I just started running without one. The only thing that worries me is the oil tank.   Gusm2 Posted on Sunday, May 11, 2014 - 01:28 am:        Have run without guards for years without any problems, my alloy oil tank has some stone/gravel rash but that just adds to the patina, plastic tanks are pretty tough too, it'll look even better when you de-lug that swing arm too   Kalali Posted on Sunday, May 11, 2014 - 08:25 am:        Mine has been missing the top guard (was cut off) for thousands of miles with no issues. More importantly is the belt itself which needs to be adjusted very loose.   Phelan Posted on Sunday, May 11, 2014 - 09:51 am:        I've logged about 30,000 miles without them on my S2s. No problems.
