Buell Firebolt description
Relisted due to non payment. BUELL XB9, a 2005 California model XB9SX converted to an R model - carbon

Diablo tires
- Modified frame (quick release Buell gas cap, welded on bosses for frame sliders)
- New fuel pump (later model)
- Energy One racing clutch
- Remapped ECM
- Jardine carbon fiber can
- EBR race springs (forks and monoshock)
- EBR rear brake rotor
- Air box delete
- K & N filter
- Breather reroute with catch can
- Pro-Flo billet clip-ons
- CRG adjustable levers
- Buell frame protectors
- Skeen Racing Delrin sliders
- Short stalk BUELL mirrors (no gawky long stemmed mirrors from later models)
- EBR carbon fiber upper fairing professionally painted and color matched to an OEM Ulysses air box cover
- EBR belly pan (to pass tech) professionally painted and color matched to an OEM Ulysses air box cover. The belly pan is attached via Dzus D-ring half turn fasteners
- Modified seat fairing, professionally painted

Thanks for your interest everyone, but please, I'm not interested in trades and I'm not giving this machine away. I'll entertain reasonable offers, so think about what has gone into this bike. By all means, ask me any questions about this build. It's well documented and I have a ton of pics as well.
This BUELL with orange front end and black rear end (including swing arm and wheel) is a striking machine that turns a lot of heads! :-)

Erik Buell Featured on Entrepreneur.com
Sat, 25 Feb 2012Entrepreneur.com, the web presence of Entrepreneur magazine, has a feature article on Erik Buell and his Erik Buell Racing (EBR) company. While the article reveals some lack of knowledge of the two-wheeled world by overusing the term “crotch rocket” as the generic description for sportbikes, this is forgivable considering it’s coming from a publication specializing in small businesses and, well, entrepreneurs, and not motorcycles. The article otherwise does a good job of giving a brief but broad synopsis of Buell and the triumphs and tragedies encountered with BMC (Buell Motorcycle Company) — it’s a good primer on Buell if you’re not fully up to speed on Buell’s life in motorcycles.
