I think if you asked most people around here, a 2010 xb12 would fetch far more than 7k at the dealers. Where did you find these prices? Were they OTD? If so I'll seriously consider buying another Buell, just to have the 2010 upgrades.
I didn't say post count or join date is a measure of intelligence, in fact I didn't even mention intelligence. The strength of your forum contribution is. Sorry if I take post count and join date into consideration when determining how much someone could possibly have contributed to the community. My bad.
Let's talk again when you've written a how to, or done something nice for another Buell rider.
(PS lshd stocks the lightning long frame pucks, I just got some in the mail. When you're ready to tune your late-model Buell, shoot me a text and I'll give you a hand.)
