Thread: My First Bike and My Dream Bike

  1. #1

    My First Bike and My Dream Bike

    Since the day the XB9 was released, I have wanted a Buell Firebolt. I remember going to a motorcycle show with my father when I was a teenager and seeing the Firebolt for the first time. It was love at first sight. This was such a good looking and unique bike. I told myself I would own one someday. That day has finally come! I recently purchased a 2009 XB12R. It's my first motorcycle. Maybe a bit too much motorcycle for a new rider, but I waited until I was in my 30s to get it for a reason! When I was younger I figured I'd probably get myself killed on a bike, now I like to think I have enough self control. Hahaha! We'll see. So far so good.

    So I figured I'd say hello to the group! Hoping to learn lots from you guys.

    And help you did! I called my local HD dealer with the part number you gave me to see if they could get it. I was told it was discontinued and if I had found one somewhere else I should scoop it up, so I ordered it online from the dealer you had suggested. Thanks for the help man!
