    Fan fuses blowing

    Fan fuses blowing

    Ok. I'll probably order a new fan from twinmotorcycles then. Or could it be enough to disassemble it and remove some oil residue? I don't have ECMdroid yet, I'm planning on getting it later, but I need a compatible phone/tablet as well.

    Fan fuses blowing

    I did this. The fan turns smoothly, but not super easy. Should it feel similar to a PC fan, very easy to rotate?

    Fan fuses blowing

    I wouldn't say "covered", but the area is oily from the rear cylinder. What needs to be removed to be able to replace/thoroughly test the fan? Do I need to remove the rear shock absorber?

    Fan fuses blowing

    I got a CEL a few days ago. I blinked it when I got home. It was code 36, Fan Voltage. I checked the fuses and one 10A fuse was blown. I replaced it and the CEL didn't light up anymore, but soon came back on and the fuse was blown again. I realize just putting in new fuses won't do much good...

    Thinking about getting an XB12s...

    My 2008 XB12S has been great so far. The only minor thing is that the neutral light won't light up sometimes. Nothing major at all. I found a well kept bike with low mileage (7180 km) and I plan on taking good care of it. Go for it, it's a great bike! For me, about 1h riding sessions is...

    2008 Lightning - Pyrite Brown

    Yesterday, the Lightning got a pair of Bridgestone Battlax S21:s and I took it for a spin to scrub them in. Today, I rode the bike to work for the first time. Feels good! Next on my list is an oil change. I have AMSoil 20W50 and a new filter ready.

    2008 Lightning - Pyrite Brown

    I had an isue with the bike yesterday. The neutral light wouldn't come on at first, and the bike would die if I let the clutch out with the kickstand down in neutral. When the bike had been running for a few minutes, the light came on, and then kept coming and going. I assume there is an issue...

    2008 Lightning - Pyrite Brown

    I bought this bike in Italy last summer with 718 kilometers on the odometer. It had an XB9SX front fairing and air filter cover in hero blue, but the rest of the plastics were black. The air filter cover was broken around one of the front screws, so I decided to buy a used one without the big X...

    Holy sh!tsnacks

    I wonder how they chose which parts of the bike to highlight. I mean, showing where the battery pack and motor is located makes sense, but I think everyone that might be interested in this thing knows what brakes look like. Or shocks. Or a swingarm. :P I would like to take one for a test drive...

    Buying a Buell in 2018

    I bought a 2008 XB12S last summer and couldn't be more pleased with it. The feeling, the torque, the looks, the sound. Great bike, go for it!

    Presentation + Paint scheme ideas

    Hi! First of all: Big thanks to the people of this forum for providing the information I needed before buying my Buell. I know I can count on you guys to help me out if something goes wrong with it. I'm super happy with my 2008 XB12S and I don't see myself replacing it anytime soon! My name is...

    Riding gear question.

    When I got my license and bought an XB12S this summer, I decided I wasn't going to cheap out on riding gear, and wear all my gear at all times. I wear this when I ride: Jacket, pants, gloves, helmet (white for visibility), motorcycle specific boots, and a back protector. It cost me about...

    2008+ Buell XB9 XB12 Quickshifter Buelltooth Combo + Free Race tune for ECM.

    Just to clarify: Does "2008+" mean including 2008 model year? I assume so since model year 2008 had the major upgrades. I bought a 2008 XB12S this summer and I'm interested in some upgrades. "2008+" could mean "model year >= 2008" or "model year > 2008".

    How do I tell a 2008 XB12S from a pre 2008?

    I have been reading every bit of info I can find. I haven't seen that VIN decoder before though, thanks for the link!

    How do I tell a 2008 XB12S from a pre 2008?

    You were right. I emailed the seller and asked about it and now it's relisted as a 2004. Probably a typo. I don't think there was any malicious intent. How much "better" are the 2008's? My thinking is "It has upgraded features, why not go for 2008 and up when I buy an XB?" But maybe an older...
