    Thanks for everyone's input. I just went with the OEM Buell unit for $106 shipped from Surdyke HD. Just came in 2 days ago, just haven't had time to install. Also considering some light modification while I need new bulbs...

I already asked here question about alternative VR and it looks like no one here installed any another VR than the original. Ebay asks 120$ for new Buell XB VR, it is pretty expensive for such old stuff, new HD VRs are cheaper. I still does not have HD VR on hands but according the picture the HD VR wires look shorter and mounting holes in another spots. So possibly I will need to extend the wires and also build a bracket to attach the HD VR to the Buell XB.

    Do you use any additional electrical accessories on your motorcycle?
    Old thread, but still relevant. I just wanted to point out that several folks have run the Compufire 55150 VR in place of the OEM Buell part. Far more reliable than the OEM part.
