To all the Buell owners out there...

I did this mod last week and we went out today for a decent ride, with a lot of dirt roads thrown in, and the low down Buell splutter & surging is pretty much gone. When Gunnyrob and I did Waikaremoana a couple of months back, low speed dirt road hairpins were a nightmare as the STT was prone to surging halfway through the bend, but now she's as smooth as butter.

Highly recommended mod for any XB owner.

NB: I have my new breather hose running down to just behind the oil radiator, with the breather filter above the primary case. I'll post some pics later.

Interesting... 40 odd thour K on the clock of a 12R and never had that issue, I must add tho the bike has a K&N filter, race can and ECU fitted.


having said that the Guzzi does it at 3g.. hmm I wonder?
