@@poimoto good shit man. Ya that particular bike is awesome. In my opinion I love all XB models and the lightning ones as well! I’ll be here for more of you’re content
I own an anniversary xb12R. It feels sooo good to ride. I wanted the white and blue or the black and red. Very cool. The wheels are aluminum Erik made the wheels light as magnesium.
Ahh, yeah these bikes are confusing. I see threads everywhere saying certain models are mag, all models are aluminum, lol. I guess I should have a shop try and bend the old wheels back then huh?
@@vtecbanger3180 yeah I’ve got an 07, the wheels on it at the moment are from a xb12 and an xb9. But I still have the original wheels that came on this bike. I’m gonna try. I’ll probably make a video on the update of the bike. Thanks for watchin and commentin.
You are the second Buell I've seen with a stuck throttle cable. The other guy totalled his. 😢 Any idea what make them stick? Just old cables? I've got an 08 XB12R and now it's got me thinking, what I need to do to prevent that from happening.
@@veltdog09 honestly I think it’s just bad design, the way the cables run is questionable and lack of lubricating them leads to them rusting, sticking, breaking.
Hey Poi thanks for sharing all of this with us.
I'm glad you're ok and the Buell is repaired and being ridden.
Stay safe dude
Buell…. My favorite motorcycle! Glad you are ok. The bike can be fixed.
@@Cbro-621 thank you, and yeah the bike is doing alright so far.

If you can get your hands on the factory seat, it will seat you on the bike, about 1" lower, which makes a world of difference. I am also 5'7"
@@thirdgearboogie2210 I’ve been looking into it. Might do this.

@@poimoto gotcha
I'll definitely be checking mine out and see what condition they're in. Thanks for the response!
