    2009 Buellxb12Ss for sale $4,600

    Selling a 2009 Buell xb12Ss Lightning long. Thought I'd put it up here before posting it locally (Lakewood, Colorado). Bought it last year, only put about 1,000 miles on it. The bike has never been down or damaged. I just had a new OEM fuel pump installed by a local Buell mechanic. Happy to...

    2009 Buell xb12ss Won't Start

    34nineteen: Bikemaster from a local shop - Performance Cycle. Work really well. I can see everything in my blind spot and they don't shake at all. Kind of tricky to get them to hold in position. Had to play with tightening them down so they wouldn't come loose.

    2009 Buell xb12ss Won't Start

    So after getting frustrated I realized the new bar-end mirrors I put on are binding up against the throttle grip. Took one off and the throttle isn't getting stuck as before. So yeah. Now what? Do I have to trim off the end of the grip so it doesn't get bound by the bar-end mirror?

    2009 Buell xb12ss Won't Start

    New NGK DCPR8EIX spark plugs. She starts up. Rode around neighborhood to get the wheels turning. Now, I noticed the throttle gets a bit stuck around 3/4. I assume I just need to adjust the throttle cable a bit. Thanks for the guidance everyone.

    Thanks Cooter. I'll get battery checked this week, and run the spark plug cleaning procedure. I thought I was doing the right thing by starting it up a couple of times. Go figure.

    2009 Buell xb12ss Won't Start

    Had it on a trickle charger and fully charged. But I can't vouch for its veracity. I'll have to take it to a shop then.

    2009 Buell xb12ss Won't Start

    So, I put her away for the winter in the garage. Had some gas in it and I added Sea Foam. Kept it on a trickle charger from time to time and started it up every couple of weeks. But, last month it won't turn over. battery fully charged. She just chugs and chugs. It did kick over one time, ran...

    Best place for aftermarket parts?

    Tail Chop I did my own tail chop. Admittedly encountered a lot of small challenges, but in the end it turned out great. If I were to do it again, I would NOT recommend mounting the turn signals in the tail piece. Instead, buy an aftermarket turn signal bracket. This one fits the existing holes...

    Warped Front Brake Rotor

    My front brake rotor is slightly warped (2009 xb12ss). A mechanic confirmed it a while back during an evaluation. It's only noticeable when braking - of course. Finally decided it's time to get it done. Is it even possible to repair a warped brake rotor? Otherwise, I'm planning to find a used...

    Throttle Response?

    Didn't want to start a new thread, so here is an update. Checked throttle cable, and it appears to be adjusted properly. Granted, I've never adjusted it before. Question. After parking in the garage, if I close the doors, the smell of gas is very strong for a couple of hours. Not having...

    Belt rub = low tone squeaky sound? Primary Drive belt rubbing

    Update: after a stupid merry-go-round of choosing race stands to get the bike up, I finally removed tires, and Performance Cycle of Colorado put Michelin Road 5 and new bearings on all around. Installed according to manual and two Buell owners Youtube videos. One question. The belt has a...

    Belt rub = low tone squeaky sound? Primary Drive belt rubbing

    Fellas, can't thank you enough for slow walking me through this. So, another issue - I assume is common - the bolts holding on the rear fender and front fender have some sort of loctite on them. I half stripped one, and just about to strip another. They are super crazy tight. Clearly, I can't...

    Belt rub = low tone squeaky sound? Primary Drive belt rubbing

    Just to confirm before I buy the bearings. This is a two bearing wheel. Correct? Thanks in advance.

    Is a 2007 xb12s Actuator compatible with 2009 xbss

    Thanks for the info. Lunaticfringe had the same suggestion to use a dorman unit. I'll look further into that.
