2006 Buell XB12S review from United States of America
"Thank God I'm mature enough to not kill myself on this thing!!"
General comments?
XB12Scg model, Orange of course!! Mod air-box, more carbon fiber that you can imagine.
Drummer muffler, heat kit, billet-pegs, controls and more stuff than I can say. Now this is a fun bike!
Makes my modified V-Rod seem like a old Buick in the handling and braking department. My lady also likes the Buell better to ride on. In the V-Rod's defense though, I will not change the factory seat. She is only 100+ pounds but slides off the back whenever I accelerate the "Rod"!
I've owned six V-Max's and miss that sound with Super Trapps, but this Buell is a real kick!
