hows it going guys!
I'm a new Buell owner from Owensville Missouri.
I play in a rock n' roll band from St.Louis called Breakdances With Wolves.
I own a 2005 Firebolt XB12R, Blue and Gold.

i bought the bike from my father who bought it in 2005 from someone who lived in Milwaukee. the original owner rode it 23 miles and laid it down. then sold it to my dad.
there are plenty of dings and scratches on the bike, i will post some detailed pictures.
either way, i LOVE my Buell. its an awesome bike. and i have a lot of big plans for it.

the bike sits right now with 3446 miles on it. so its still pretty fresh.
i'm sure i'll need some help finding some parts for it to replace and i've been looking into replacing the front fairing with a lightning front fairing and headlights. which i read is a total headache to do. :o) i've also read and watched plenty of video's about gutting the exhaust. even though thats one of the parts i need to replace (banged up pretty good.)

anyway, i just wanted to introduce myself a little.
thanks!

unfortunately not. that was 2 days ago before the 'Streetfighterz Ride OF The Century' in St. Louis. :)

unluckily for the cop, i know about him cheating on his wife and getting another woman pregnant while he was on duty. needless to say, he was less happy about pulling me over than i was about him.

Welcome, I live in Troy Mo, I would be interested in swapping your fairing and headlights for mine if they are interchangeable. I have an 09 Lightning.

Welcome!

How'd you get stranded on the side of the road? I hope those threads didn't scare you from riding. I rode on my tire like that for a week or two before my new one came in to replace it, haha.

Check out cycle gear of st.charles rock road. Ask for mike (not me). He is a good guy and they had a great deal on tires not too long ago. May have a good deal again.

When, where is your next show?
