Buell Firebolt description

Relisted due to non payment.  BUELL XB9, a 2005 California model XB9SX converted to an R model - carbon canister removed.  I had intended to build this into a dedicated track bike, but decided on a hybrid street and track capable machine.  Included in this build are:

  • 1 set of new (just scrubbed in) Pirelli 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
  • Steering head/both wheels/ have new bearings
  • new front isolator
  • new rectifier
plus a whole host of parts and hardware required to convert an XS into an R.  The ECM was remapped professionally but still requires metalogging to fine tune the fuel map.  Odometer will vary as this is my daily ride.  For those living some distance away, please check out ebay's shipping service.  You can get rate quotes for transport to your zip from four different carriers!

Search for "Buell XB9R Walkaround and ridearound" on youtube to see and hear this bike.

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!   :-)

A former Buell engineer, Askenazi joined Zero Motorcycles in 2010 as vice president of engineering where he played a vital role in developing the company’s 2011 line-up, overhauling over 80% of Zero’s existing electric motorcycle line-up while adding the Zero XU and street legal versions of the Zero X and Zero MX in just 10 months on the job. “Abe’s ability to effectively execute on an aggressive product development plan, select the best new technologies and rally his team is remarkable.

Results From Day 2 Of World Superbike Testing At Phillip Island

Tue, 18 Feb 2014

World Superbike testing at Phillip Island came to a close today, and when the dust settled, reigning champion Tom Sykes stamped his authority, setting the fastest time of the test at 1:30.239, just five thousandths shy of the outright lap record held by Carlos Checa. The time was set during the morning session of testing, though nobody was able to best Sykes for the remainder of the day. Eugene Laverty, who was fastest on day one, showed his pace was no fluke as he stayed near the top of the time sheets, ultimately finishing second behind Sykes, with a best time of 1:30.513.
