They have been sold

Thanks for your interest! I do currently have one person interested in the whole lot, so I'm going to hold out for that sale. If that does not go through, I will let you know.

Hi guys,

I sold my XB9SX and now ride a Triumph Street Triple 675. I'm keeping my eye out for a cool Buell project bike near me, though. I thought I'd save these parts from my last bike, but at...

Looking clean. Love the City X platform, even if it is just a Lightning with hadguards.

My guess is an optimistic 96HP at the wheel.

I feel like this is every PO of every bike I have ever owned.





I gotta look for one of those next time I stumble upon a yard/estate sale with a lot of tools.

The impact drivers listed as wrenches?

Hi guys

Recently this video came up in my Youtube feed:

I thought it was pretty interesting, and validating of my own Harbor Freight...

If the intake boot/velocity stack isn't different from year to year or model to model, I should have one of those for you off an '03 xb9 motor.

I had a feeling it wasn't all that. I know less than zero about racing, but I did look at the XBRR pictures and it didn't seem to match up totally.

Weren't you looking for one of these?

Dude, that was hilarious and awesome. Must have taken forever to make.

Do what I did and go to Autozone and rent their loaner tool. It's not called a bearing puller, but it functions like a slide hammer with expandable end pieces that fit inside the bearings. It worked...

I can only say that would be quite a benefit to any motorcyclist! :tongue-new:

Barrett, thanks for that advice. I think you are the dose of realism I need in order to balance Cooter's unrelenting optimism. Neither of which are bad things!

I'll need to look into it further...

I think that's what I'll be going for. Nothing too crazy, just a nice relaxed rebuild. No doubt, you'll hear form me on this subject at a later date. Appreciate the advice, Gentlemen!

I'm glad we live so far apart.

I don't consider myself hosed. I can remove the front and rear isolators at least, and part out the rest, probably making back the original $250, don't you think?

But I might just decide to...

Well, I can't post the videos, because I actually don't own something that can read a micro SD card at the moment. However, I can say for certain the this engine will not run. The rear cylinder and...

Boom, done. Like I needed another excuse to buy one of these. I got one with the screen built in, because I'd rather drop a $40 gadget in the garage than my (admittedly cheap, but still relatively...

Thanks Barrett.

As it happens, I already have a spare set of headers and a race muffler. Then I found this decent looking XB9R fuel tank/frame on Facebook marketplace for $250 shipped to me,...

We'll... true enough!

After comparing with the vin on my 05 City X, it looks to be from an '03 Lightning. I took Barrett's info to mean that the 5th number in the engine code was the year number,...

Just got it home.

17337

Looks like this is the engine code:

I was lucky enough to notice an XB9S motor being sold near me for local pickup only on ebay. I submitted an offer and won it for $250. I have no ideas if the motor is any good, or the mileage on it,...

Thanks! I have considered going that route to avoid tire changes as much as possible, and I don't really ride very sporty at all. The Pilots have made my short list for the next time.
