Default alright...im back in the game...

On something I never pictured myself on or thought I would buy. CbrBob...you should like this. Tuesday night I picked up a 2004 Buell XB12S lightning. yea yea yea...I know. The only thing Im going to say is...truthfully...on the street, this thing is 5 times more fun to ride then my 03 600rr was. This thing has GOBS of torque, massages your hands and feet at idle (lol) and handles like a dirtbike. Its got 9,800 miles and has never had a problem. One owner n all service done by the dealer. The thing is def odd looking and different...but i think thats why i like it. or maybe im just getting old? lol

I'll have pics of mine up at some point...but this is it..

"Hey Ron, I'm gonna pull away fast, then I'll do the same on the way back, let me know if you can hear what's tapping?"

Nice ride XB12SPilot, good luck with it.

Remember, if it is pouring out, it's a leav. Anything less is 'weeping' and will not be covered under any warranty because 'that's normal'.
