It's a shame another Buell has gone this way,won't be long before there are just bits and no bikes

Is it worth having a punt on the race ECU and pipe?
Or do I wait for TM to get the torque hammer eu homologated, and get one of thier stage 1/2 ECU's ?
What's the difference between the standard and race ECU?

Cheers,
Mick.

And that bike in the photo does not have a Buell race can on it ;) they are standard headers, standard headers don't fit Buell race can .........can't see the can itself to see what makes on it ;)

Ah, cheers guys.
My bike has standard headers and can, so a race can wouldn't fit anyway then.
I'll have to have a read about this ECM spy thing.
I'm a bit of an electronicsaphobe!
I've always been a carb man. WOT, kill the engine, whip the plugs out to check to colour, then spend many a happy hour dicking about with needles and jets. lOl
Show me a laptop, and I struggle to find the on/off button. :old:

Which models have the 2"/ 2 1/2" headers? Mines a UK model, but I don't have the bike here yet to check which size headers it has.

What's the reasoning behind the different sizes, and is there any advantage with one over the other?

Are they interchangable?

What's the airspeed velocity of an unlaiden swallow? (African or European?) lOl

Thanks for the replys. 8-) I should keep a lookout for some 2 1/2 inch headers too then, if the bike breathes better with them.
I think I've seen a blue set on TM's website. :idea:
Maybe Albert can make them?
I suppose I will begrudgingly have to buy a laptop. :sad1:

Headwind or tailwind? I don't know....Doh! :shock:

Best performing and by far the best looking tuber exhaust is the Buell race kit system with longer headers ............loud but a fantastic sound (muffin registered 116Db at cadwell ) ...rare as hens teeth now but Albert makes a very very nice copy ;)
