Welcome!
In this video, we get a Hot-Rodded Buell XB12 back to running condition. This bike has a full Hammer Performance 1250 engine build with Headwork and 560 Cams. The motor only had 10 or so miles on it when I began the work, so unfortunately we couldn't take it on a proper ride to do the bike some justice.
This bike is going to be coming back after it's broken in for a Road Tune, and we'll also be installing larger injectors as it's out of injector. If you have a Buell XB or Buell Tuber, drop us a line on our website if you'd like a quote on getting some work done!

Glad to see there’s still people out there who love their Buells as much as I do!!

OMG you make it look soooo eazy 😂 8 min video is 5 days for me Hope I'll get my '08 xb12s cherry bomb back on the road. Many thanks 🙌

You're a great mechanic, ill be back to watch your other videos. Buells are notoriously hard to work on and you made it look easy.

@DoctorMotorcycle Год назад

Thanks, but to be fair, I've worked on more than one of these before.

bravo, great video. i had a buell ulysses and i had to sell it and i'm so sorry. now i'm looking at xb12s and i think they are great engines to drive that sound wow. unfortunately there are no more services in Croatia, so I will be forced to learn by myself hehe. You literally showed them all the flaws here and I look forward to future videos. good luck

St Paul Harley does not carry that adapter that looks like the throttle body zirk type connector or whatever you call it that plugs into the fuel line. According to 34nineteen on the Buell XB forum it is Part No. B-45522 which st paul does not carry. Could you please tell me where i could get one. If I had a latthe, I would make one myself.

Nice video. Been restoring an xb12xt I bought last year and it’s been a roller coaster. Once something is fixed , something else was wrong. But I finally got it to run kind of smooth. I’m using the rev-mo exhaust and the map that came with it. Wondering if you can share me your fuel map to try it out. Thanks

@DoctorMotorcycle Год назад

Thanks, yeah that's how it usually goes. I this bike has a built high compression motor with headwork/cams, the fuel map would be way off for your bike.

What is your preferred turbo to use on your builds?

My recommendation is to go on Garrett's site and look at the GBC line of turbo's, the GBC14-200 will work for 90% of motorcycle turbo builds. -Doc

my buell xb12s cg lighting doesn't start button nothing work just pomb feul when I touch button to start nothing hear it

@ibrahimharizi8781 9 месяцев назад

can you help me please 😢

@DoctorMotorcycle 6 месяцев назад

@@ibrahimharizi8781 Check the basics. Put the bike in neutral, manually jump the starter solenoid with a +12V wire, see if the starter spins. If it does, start working your way backwards. Is the killswitch operational? Is the Starter button supplying power to the solenoid? If so, it might be the starter relay. Download a service manual and follow the troubleshooting procedures, that's how I figured this out and that's how I find faults on all EFI bikes.

Wouldn't it be awesome if "real" doctors also knew what is causing patient's problem and how to fix it? Instead of prescribing pills? 👀 __ That was pretty amazing to watch. My fav bike, too. Was all that messing with the gearbox because of the one little tiny spring that fell out? 😍

@DoctorMotorcycle Год назад

Thanks, the spring fell out because the dowel pin that centered the shifter was broken off inside the case. I took care of that off camera. But yes, it all had to come apart for a relatively simple fix.

@bruiserdotcom Год назад

@@DoctorMotorcycle that's a great point, things like "spring fell off" don't usually happen without a reason and people should be careful to look for a cause when reinstalling something that's fallen apart

@jerrybigrig9475 Год назад

I'm confused .. You heading says ..will it run..starts and runs poorly.. So you take off the primary cover to reinstall the shifter spring .. Then you say the program was corrupt ..but you pulled the fuel pump and replaced the broken plastic parts ..then cleaned the plugged up injectors ..??

@DoctorMotorcycle Год назад

All separate issues that contributed to it not running, and it's a great example of what it's like to be a mechanic. You think you've discovered the issue, but there's still more wrong. Personally, I don't think a bike that won't continue to run after you hit the start button counts as running, but if you feel that it does....let's agree to disagree 👍
