New Owner and Rider...

[jeshua]

hello everyone. Been lurking for a bit while I waited to pickup my new Buell. Road home my new 07 XB12STT last Friday in the rain and now can't wait to really take her out for a ride. Going to leave it stock for now while I figure out what I want/need to do to the new girl. I just got my license in July and have been riding my buddy's Yamaha xt225 and Suzuki SV650 around learning and taking care of the two wheel itch. Its my first bike and I have a lot to learn but can't wait to do so. I'm in SoCal(hemet/temecula area).


Well here are some pictures of her sitting out back of my office waiting for 5:00 to roll around.

Welcome! Congrats on the new bike, and keep the rubber side down[up][up]

Thank you and I'm going to do my best to keep the wheels below me. A lot more power then what I've been riding.

welcome, nice to have you join the Buell family [up]

I had taken a race course wayyyy back in the day to help me become a better rider and I can not express how much it improved my riding abilities.....one of those things that if you can treat yourself to it, do it!
happy riding with your new baby

Thank you all for the welcome.

I did the R.A.C.E school at Shannonhole in, jeeze....83-84. I raced there when Mercier was racing and Picotte was still an amateur!! Was an instructor at a couple of 125GP schools in around 2000-2001. Sorry for the post bump, LOVE the number plates jeshua. Wayne

Welcome to the Buell family. You have the exact same model I purcased 6 weeks ago. Love my bike and am sure you will love yours too. So far all of my mods have been cosmetic, new grips, tank bag, etc...Stay safe and keep the rubber side down.
