Have questions about XB12Ss

[StuntNhabit]

Hey everyone I've always wanted a buell because of how sick they seem to be in both appearance and performance. Well, I found one in Montana that i think i might purchase but I wanted to get everyones opinions before i do. First off I'm 6'3" 195 lbs. What do you guys think about the 12s vs 12Ss? what affects does the 2 inch longer wheel base have? If any negative affects do you thinkt hey are worth it to have a bike that fits me better? is the 12Ss as good for twisties and stuntN? oh yeah and is 5500 a good deal for a 2006 with 2400 miles? Thanks everyone! David

If you want my opinion, the fit and extra range was better than wheelies. I made that exact same quest in 2006. I bought an 06 Ss, the model doesn't wheelie like the S model , the front comes up slower but smoother. The range is better with the larger tank capacity on the Ss. What I also did was put a better set of tires on my bike, which kick up the performance which is far more than you can really use. Stability is better at higher speeds. Depending on your riding style, you choose.
