    Im looking at buying a bike in the near future. Been narrowing the possibility down. Finally down to 3. RC51, Xb12R or xb12S.

    I like the idea of the 12S's more upright position but absolutely do not like the tail & seat arrangement. I know some S models can accept the 12R tail & seat. And I know some accpet it but with fit issues. Which ones would accept it without any issues?

    All S models it is a bolt on except the bigger frame Ss and Stt

    crxtasy169: I'm planning at this point. It will still be a few months before Im ready to buy. Just making sure I know what I want. But Im imagining it would be easier to find someone to just swap with then try to buy a complete R setup and sell the S.

    Cosworth: Short rails? is the Sx seat shorter?

    No i edited my post and it didn't stay out very long I was thinking the SX rails or like the ST rails.The rails are the same as the SS rails.
    I cant just swap tails with somebody I have an 1125 CR that I'm trying to find an S Tail for. So if you do end up selling the entire tail please let me know.

    Stop confusing your self there are two different rail lengths

    S, SX, SCG Short Rails

    Ss, STT Long Rails
