Here is the break down on those TT models.
We got the XB12STT's in about this time last year. They didn't really sell anywhere in the country, so there they sat. I think they were a half hearted attempt at a new model just to try to get Buell back in the news. Buell must have realized this too. In October of 2007 we got a bulletin from Buell saying that they will sell each dealership with a XB12STT still in stock a kit for each bike they had. What the kit consisted of was a Lightning Long style seat, colored flyscreen and airbox cover (in only translucent colors), and complete passenger foot pegs and supports. They were supposed to remove all the white body work and seat. What the terms were if the dealership installed the kits on the bikes and then sold them, the dealership wouldn't be billed for the kits. Now is where the gray area comes in. To my knowledge, they didn't give any instructions of what to do with the left over parts. My thinking would be to include them with the purchase of the bike, but not all dealers are like that. So, be aware when you buy one of those bikes and make sure to ask them about what they did with the old parts.
