Thinking of buying a buell

[UMDterp13]

Like the title says. I'm looking into getting a buell XB.
What should I look for?
Does mileage matter if it's been taken care of?
What's better 9 or 12, 1125, tuber or blast?
Does year really matter?

Thanks in advance

PS I want this to be a thread for new potential buellers. So I or anyone else can just send a link to people interested. All they have to do is read

well there Mr. Obvious, long time listener first time caller.

outstanding john!!!!
jeff: your terrain down there in eastern MD is nice and flat so i'd highly recommend the blast. year and mileage irrelevant. i've seen well-maintained blasts achieve over 700,000 miles without so much as a belt replacement.

You guys are something else....

You should see the facebook posts. This is nothing.

the first thing I always do is sit on the bike and have the owner take a picture of me. Then I look at the picture and see if it makes my penis look bigger. That way all the BUSA guys girlfriends will be enamored by my presence.

I just do the opposite of what people tell me to do, worked out pretty good for me

Greetings muchachos,

I'm interested in getting a xb9sx, but I have no idea what I should check before buying. Any suggestions as to what to inspect before buying?

with a name like ethiopianstallion, this could take a while. First it has to have two wheels.

Lol I'm curious as to how reliable these bikes are. How many miles til I start noticing problems, what's the regular maintenance like?

just FYI, this thread is actually about a few of us being smartasses. Use the search box in the upper right of the page and search for 'buying a bike'. Lots of threads on the subject
