    2009 Buell Lightning XB12scg

    Haha you're right, but I have all the paperwork from the original owners. And for some perspective, my Apple Watch has recorded me walking/running 1,500 miles in just the last 12 months. This bike is from 2009. Alright the areas on the right and left side of the wheel, about 5cm forward of the...

    2009 Buell Lightning XB12scg

    Thanks, Cooter! The swingarm is a couple millimeters taller on the arms and the axle has the internal dimensions from the 1125, not the XB. The previous owner kept it in a barn and never rode it. The white spot on the rear subframe is a parking permit that I blurred out. The pipe will probably...

    2009 Buell Lightning XB12scg

    For sale: 2009 Buell XB12scg with 3,104 miles. This bike is extremely low mileage and mostly stock, though I have modified a few things. The following is a fairly complete list of what has been modified or upgraded: - Installation of motogadget disc LED bar end turn signals - Installation of...

    Woodcraft Case Covers/Sliders

    Hey everyone! I've been in contact with Woodcraft about getting covers made for the EBR, but since the sprocket and clutch covers are identical for the 1190 as the 1125, I wanted to see if anyone here wanted to grab one too! Here's the scoop: The clutch cover will be totally replaced, and the...

    Is an 1190 SX upgrade from 2008 XB9SX a good choice?

    So I'll throw my hand in here on the bike front for a sec. I took my SX out on track yesterday and, despite being very comfortable and competent on the street, felt like I didn't even squeeze 1/10th of the performance that an EBR is capable of. And I've put hundreds of hours of work into my...

    Is an 1190 SX upgrade from 2008 XB9SX a good choice?

    I bought my bike from them. They're good people. Hammer them on price though. They'll bend. EDIT: Just read to the end of the thread. That wasn't so nice. They were good to me so idk why it went so badly for you lol

    Howdy - Potential new Bueller coming from Ducati

    Hey Michael, welcome to the board! I know how you feel about the engine. However, did you know that Erik Buell took his brilliant design skill after he left Harley and opened up his own shop, called Erik Buell Racing? He didn’t make many bikes at EBR (like 1200 or so), but they’re exactly what...

    12R Sputters Under 3000 rpm

    The O2 sensor is tough to change, and you need a crowfoot wrench and 6” or 10” socket extension. Make sure you’re using anti-seize as well. Don’t be surprised if your O2 sensor is working fine though. If there is a change in AFV, then it indicates that the sensor is properly communicating a...

    Bike Transport at the Beginning of January

    I'm heading from Boston to Michigan and back in a couple weeks to pick up a new EBR. I know 'tis the season to buy and sell bikes, so I was wondering if anyone needs a recently sold/purchased motorcycle to be transported in the states of MA, NH, RI, CT, NY, NJ, PA, OH, or MI. I have a covered...

    New future Owner from PA here.

    Have you purchased the motorcycle yet? If you haven't put pen to paper, there are a few things that I'd recommend checking for before you actually purchase it. Get a BUELLtooth and check any stored Check Engine Light codes, plus the AFV that you find. The AFV is Adjusted Fuel Value. It's a...

    12R Sputters Under 3000 rpm

    The AFV is Adjusted Fuel Value. It's a fudge factor built into the system that allows the ECU to easily make changes to the air/fuel ratio based on a variety of different factors that the computer processes, including the input air temperature, head temperature, and the detected mix by the O2...

    Need help 2007 xb9r

    No, he needs to troubleshoot his issue with the engine, which he created the thread for. @custombuell - Do you have a BUELLtooth? If not I highly recommend you purchasing one. It is the single best tool you can use on these bikes to determine the root cause of failure.

    HID lights

    I chose to go with LED's instead of HID's. They're incredibly bright and have a really nice beam pattern. These are what I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01LCE19N4/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 They last forever. It is important to note that you will have to cut the...

    Hiccup / stutter / misfire / intake backfire

    I'm sorry if some of this is a bit basic, but a lot of the time the basic stuff is the most important! And only when cold? Or when cold and warm? If it's only when the engine is cold, then you have a problem that is confined to only Open Loop operation. If you have a stock map, which is...

    Hiccup / stutter / misfire / intake backfire

    What is your AFV? To summarize, when the bike idles or is at low speed when cold, then you have runability problems? What kind of fuel are you using? Which ECM version do you have? (Is your bike DDFI3?) Let me know! My problems with my bike have led me through a lot of troubleshooting that may...
