Author Message   New2bikes Posted on Tuesday, July 08, 2008 - 06:06 pm:        i have a blast 01 and it seems to bottom out alot, when i sit on the bike, the exhaust is about 2 inches from the floor, dont know what the norm is but i feel its too low...i am 5'10 and weight 200lbs... am i too big for the bike?   Straitpipes Posted on Sunday, July 13, 2008 - 09:13 pm:        call a buell dealer for your shock and fork settings for your weight.and get a manual for your bike.   Beeyoull Posted on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 - 04:42 pm:        There are no shock and fork settings for the blast. I am 200lbs and had no problems on the blast I rode for the MSF. What kinds of bumps are you hitting? My XB12R has very low clearance when I'm on it but I dont bottom out.
