I'd like to find a late ('08 or newer preferred) XB12R (or S, for that matter) with relatively low miles for a fair price.
I'm able to buy immediately if the right bike comes along (as in: once we've agreed on a price, I'm good for it...there won't be any "after the fact" waffling or anything like that).
So what's the "right bike"? First, I don't need a project. I've done that already. I'm looking for a mechanically perfect, aesthetically (at least) excellent bike that won't require anything once I buy it except ordinary scheduled maintenance. I'm really not interested in something that's going to take body work, deep cleaning, repainting, etc. Been there, done that...don't have time to do it again.
Secondly, the price needs to be fair with respect to the market. I'm more active over on BOR and Badweb...and I'm just using the guidelines that the "smart" folks seem to have for what is reasonable. I guess I'm saying that as much as I want an XB and am ready to buy, I don't "need" another bike. So I'm happy to wait for just the right one. I'd just like to have another Buell to complement the Blast as well as ride and maintain for the foreseeable future (perhaps even hand down to my son). These bikes are just too good to let die, and I really take care of things (in fact, I'm probably affected by some form of OCD given the way I work to keep things) - I hope that makes sense.
Lastly - location is important. I'm in southwestern VA...and I'd like to find something that wouldn't take more than 6 hours to reach. 4 hours or less would be optimum.
Thanks in advance if someone sees a link on C/L or elsewhere and forwards it to me - I'll definitely check those out and report back.
Oh - I should add that I have impeccable internet feedback for selling or buying...as in perfect. I don't B/S, and I don't play games. I'm a serious buyer that wants to do more than kick tires. My username is the same across a number of forums, including some musically based ones (talkbass, thegearpage, etc.). In ALL of them not one person has had anything to complain about with respect to my financial dealings.

Awesome - thanks!
Good luck
Jay almost bought mine!
Thanks, Chris....would have loved to have bought yours....that is a great bike. Congrats on the sale, and I hope the new owner loves it!
Sale is still pending only a deposit was made.
Ah....well, let me know if something falls through - I'm hoping everything works in order for you to get that Uly from IA.
Thanks for the daylister link again - I'm getting some information on a couple of bikes that are on there....
