I'll spare you all the Saab story (ha, that's...
Sent an email if there's any left, hoping to get in line!
Yikes... that's too bad. Would hope people have the accountability to fess up to/compensate you for such things, but I guess not much really surprises me anymore... Good luck on saving the tap, I'm...
Go on...?
I did end up picking up a kit off Amazon, so I'll probably just use it tonight. There's a couple good days left here in MN before the bikes get sheathed for the season... so I'd just...
Hey all, so in doing the oil change on my new (to me) Uly in prep for winter storage, I removed the drain plug to find a nice coating of aluminum shavings all over it. The PO must've over-torqued it...
Take a look here... I think this is exactly what you want:

Factory suspension and seat for an XB12Scg or XB9SL - brings it down about 2" if I recall. I'm short too (29" inseam) and put the "low" seat on my 2004 XB12S and it helped quite a bit. New seat or...
Several others have mentioned it - go test ride some more!! I just picked up an 08 Uly XT but spent a little over a month exhausting every possible option - all in I rode 5 different XB's before...
Done a handful of ZARS days at DCTC the past few years, but nothing yet this year... sadly been a clusterfudge of other priorities this summer. Usually I'm on the SV/F4i but maybe I'll bring the Uly...
Thanks indeed. Looks like there's is "pre-order" as well - shipping early August. Wonder if they know something that EBR hasn't told us yet (assuming the EBR parts may be available the same time)?...
Thanks for the feedback - I'll keep an eye on the EBR hardware kit. Putting everything back together tonight, I'll reuse the stock hardware for now. I did thoroughly clean everything up and will be...
There seems to be a school of thought that the EBR hardware kit is "improved" over the factory Buell hardware kit that you linked. In all reality, they're both acceptable, but if I'm replacing my...
Saw that one too, but it's listed as "obsolete". Not to mention with USD conversion and shipping probably close to $200, which is more coin than I'd like to drop. Oh well, guess I'll just wait to see...
Just saw this... I think I'm tied up both the 29th and the 5th (family in town, then a bach party...). But, good to know there's some comrades out there. Keep me posted on any other rides that may...
Appreciate the sarcastic response, but if you read you'll notice it says:
"This item is not currently available. When you add it to your order it will be placed on backorder and an update will be...
Looking for the "new style" (springless) rotor mounting kit that seems to be quite hard to come across these days. It's the EBR washer style (not stock spring style) part# CQ0001.11AZ. I've searched...
^^This... for this reason I always state in my seller's ad that test rides will be permitted ONLY with cash and your drivers license in my hands. In addition, riders must have their motorcycle...
Interesting... I thought there were other fitment issues such as reservoir and fluid line routing/mounting with such a swap? I have an 08 Uly XT and am looking to lower, heard the SS shock was the...
Pretty sure that's accurate - I seem to recall removing mine when I put a Jardine pipe on my old XB12 (though this was some 6 years ago?). The reason is the lines are routed through the stock pipe...
Hey everyone, been around for a while first time posting. Just picked up a 2008 XB12XT (second Buell, had an '04 S years ago that I loved, sadly sold but now I'm back). I'm a shorter guy (5'6" w/ 29"...
^^Has anyone ever used a "kit" like that? I would be skeptical of it as it's billed as "universal" across all XB models, despite the longer frame/swingarm of the X/XT/P/SS/STT models vs standard...
If sale falls through for any reason shoot me a PM - I'd be interested. Thanks!
