Bought this bike about 3 months ago, rode about 2500 miles and decided I'm more at home on an I4 600.

It'ss a blue 03 xb9r, has 8,007 miles today and it'll be ridden until I sell it.

Mods:
Breather Reroute
Race ECM
K&N Air Filter
Open Air Box
Hawk Muffler
Also tuned with ECM spy.

I have a touring seat for it, as well as 1" lowered pegs. The stock stuff is on the bike currently. I also have a set of lyndall gold break pads that are in like new shape, the stock ones still have some life left. I also have an upgraded 04+ belt, belt guard, and pulleys for it, but they aren't installed yet because the 03 belt only has about 5,000 miles on it. It has the recalled 03 belt installed, the headlight, wheel bearing, and kickstand recalls were also done. I've been having some problems with the battery recently and the one in it is about 5 years old, I ordered a new one yesterday.

The only thing wrong with the bike is the clutch drags some when the bike's in gear and the lever is pulled despite me adjusting it to the best of my ability, so it will need a new one...but who knows how long it'll be before it does. It still rides and shifts perfectly fine and the symptoms haven't worsened any (was that way when I got it), I wasn't planning on replacing it until I started to have problems out of it.

Pictures will be up soon.

Asking $4300 obo. Located in Roanoke, VA.
 
I don't know why my thread title says 09...could've sworn I put 03 [confused]

I can't edit it anymore so if someone could change it I'd appreciate it :/
 
All you need to do to adjust the clutch is take the lower inspection cover off and loosen the clutch nut, just slightly, you can get greater adjustability from the inside than through the cable itself.
