the 710 kits do make quite a difference, but im not sure they are worth all that dosh ( my first one had a 670 bore using the largest wiseco piston, my second had the 710 in ).

better to buy a bike with one already fitted since it hardly affects the sale price.

and .... dragging the thread back on course ...

i no longer own 1 buell : i now own 2 : a Uly for the supermoto buzz and an S3 for distance.

:yt:
managed to get my ully out for a quick ride ( first one this year and since i brought the bike last november)
been waiting ages for a half decent day to get it warmed up and change oils, engine and gearbox .
just got to sort out suspension or adjust my riding style feels harsh on the front if breaking or on the overrun in to bends, but ok with a bit of throttle and drive it round
love the amount of torque the engines got no matter what gear just wind it on and pulls like a train :D

8-) Chill Nutah. I'm having a laarf too. Oddly enough, I was going to mention the cracked slab! lOl
Thanks for the tip, but check out the CCM exhaust on page 11. Did it misself on a bench grinder with a cloth wheel and a polishing bar. ;)
Don't like using that acid stuff, it can cause no end of damage if you splash it in the wrong place.
