I'm buying a 99 X1, currently riding a 07 XBcityX. What are the major differences in handling and performance?
 
I would think your X1 is gonna feel a bit bigger. They don't have that super short wheelbase like the XBs do. You're also upgrading to the 1203cc motor, so that's good stuff. [up]

I'd love to get me an S1 someday. You keeping your XB as well??
 
cant to get myself a X1 !(hopefully a millinum edition X1 )! the tubers are the first BUELLs that i ever seen and heard, and what got me into Buells in the first place. the tubers have a cool old school mean and fast & agressive unique look to them , as compared to the modern sleek fast unique XB's. thats why I love them both.
I wish there was more tubers on here(or maybe I'm just not aware of it) , wish more would post pics of their tubers. any pics of the X1 your buying ??

I am going to pick it up Saturday, can hardly wait!
When I get home I'll post more pics. Do you all have pics of your tubers?
 
very nice buell x1 , cant wait to get a X1 for me & my XB12R to have a brother . i know i seen some threads or post about xb wheels on a tuber before , please post pics of it when you get it done. found the thread here xb rim conversion, thats alot of changing and you say loose tight spot turning . any other way to do it ?
does anyone have pics of a X1 with XB rims? please post
 
Nice bikes the SB and the X1! Pur Pony what kind of seat is that on the X1 ? Daniel9ds what part of PA?
 
My S3 is mostly stock. I have most of the things I've done listed if you click on my profile name.
 
my seat is a buell select or pro seat.. dont exactly remember what its call. I believe they have not made them from some time. I see them used from time to time, i ended up lucking out and buying mine brand new from ebay. Its much more comfy then the factory seat.
 
My X1 has a stock can that the previous owner took apart and reworked.I have a break in the weld around the intake pipe into the muffler. I think I will have it tig welded because I like the sound of it. Has any one else done this?
