Hi guys

I am no expert, but i did read on some forums that the XB9 seems to be a good solid engine. I think the XB12 (maybe also XB9) got a redesigned crank pin and oil pump in 2007 or 08. Google and alot of info are available.
08' I believe. Big pin crank & improved oil pump gear
The '03 belt system should be upgraded to '04-up
All XB Buells got the Thunderstorm engine in '08 but they are all plenty reliable if treated with even the most basic of maintenance:angel:
