Recently picked up a 05 Buell XB9R Sunfire Yellow. Have loved these bikes for a long time and finally got a deal on one.

Welcome to buell world, Not the one from Nc is it?

I was watching one there for a few months, knew someone was/is going to get a deal.
 
Bike was not taken care of by guy before me. Buddy and I have gone over it and luckily all smallthings with no major flaws. List below are things found and corrected.

1. Charcoal Briquette on motor (not kidding)
2. Original HD spark plugs pulled and motor inspected all looked good.
3. Front pads replaced. Couldn't take them out as bolt bead was stripped all good now.
4. Changed brake fluid was nasty.
5. Fixed turn signal that would spin in place.
6. Changed all fluids. Ensured oil plug was torqued properly was hand tight when I picked it up.
7. Replaced headlight bulbs. Was just laying inside socket.
8. Tightened battery cables and that fixed hesitation to start.
9. Aired tires up to proper psi was at 10 when picked up.
10. Washed her up and got her all clean.
11. Cleaned K&N filter and replaced gasket seal.
12. Fixed horn button.

In investigating all this found it has race ecm and race exhaust. Not sure which it is. Has dual oval outlet on both side. She runs great and I'm very excited with her.
