Buell Lightning description
2003 Buell Lightning CITYX XB9SX, 2003 Buell XB9S for sale. 984cc, lots of great low end torque and one of the best handling bikes out there with the short wheel base. 24,615 miles. Black in color. Owned for 2 years, great bike. Selling for $2900. Lots of cool technology on this bike, some unique to buell: Frame/gas tank combo, swingarm/ oil res combo, mass centralization, short wheel base, bottom exhaust, Zero Torsional Load (ZTL) perimeter floating front disc brake system. I've set up the bike so it is more comfortable and consider it a "sport-touring" / street bike hybrid. Not original to the bike are Hand guards (from a buell city-x), 1" handlebar riser, black braced handle bar (from a buell city-x), and Zero Gravity Touring Windscreen (Still have original) Bike has lots of other extras: On the bike I have a K&N air filter (recharged at 22.2k), XB12 airbox cover (have original airbox), Right Side Air Scoop (have original), Frame pucks, American Sportbike front turn signals, Integrated LED taillight and signals, Smoked tail light (have original red), Kawasaki Versys mirrors, Breather Re-Route with Aluminum catch can, Headlight grille, Lucas Oil synth, I also have an extra set of balls racing front wheel bearings, Clutch bearing, ECM/ USB cable, misc screws gaskets and parts, original cheesegrater (replaced with all black city-X), Official factory Manual. Recorded Maintenance (other than regular oil changes): Replaced Spark Plugs at 12.1k Replaced Fork oil at 12.7k Neutral Switch at 13.8k Front Wheel bearings at 18.3k Rear Wheel bearings at 22.2k Last Oil Change at 22.2k (Lucas Oil Synthetic) Both Tires were replaced with Perilli Diablos at 18.3K, front is still in great shape, rear tire may need replaced mid season. There is some slight rash on the right side rear swing arm (see picture). This is from the bike sliding out from under me on a gravel driveway at 2-4 mph. Previous owner had dropped the bike at stand-still and I was told the frame was scratched up. Previous owner then got frame pucks for the bike which completely cover any of the damage. I even forget what side he said the damage was on. Would like to sell the bike soon but don't necessarily need to. Thanks for looking! $2,900.00

Geoff May To Ride EBR 1190RX In 2014 World Superbike Championship
Mon, 21 Oct 2013During the AIMExpo in Orlando, Florida last week, Erik Buell Racing (EBR) took the covers off its latest sportbike, the 1190RX. The company also announced it would be taking the 1190RX directly to World Superbike competition in 2014, with Geoff May the team’s number one rider. Joining the world championship was a dream both May and Buell talked about regularly, dating back to when May first joined the team in 2010 riding the 1125R, so clearly both parties are excited about the season ahead.
College Pair Build Two-Wheel Clothes Dryer
Tue, 03 Feb 2009What could be considered this generation’s Harold and Kumar, a pair of Swarthmore College engineering students have designed and built an experimental hydrogen fuel cell-powered “motorcycle.” Sourcing parts from what looks to be an early generation Buell Lightning and the unearthed remnants of Robby the Robot, the duo may have just created the World’s quietest and slowest two-wheeled grant-waster. Constructed with the intent to “evaluate the viability of a hydrogen economy by studying real-world data,” the two-man team says that once the experiment yields the likely results that anyone who uses a hydrogen-powered vehicle is a homo, results predicted by the pair’s Alpha Beta member roommate, they’ll abandon any legitimate research efforts and just use it to follow women that would normally avoid them. “Since it doesn’t make any noise we’ll get a lot closer to the girls before they have a chance to formulate lame excuses to leave,” said the elder of the two.
Erik Buell Racing Secures $20 Million in Foreign Investments
Fri, 20 Jul 2012Erik Buell Racing has received a $20 million injection from investors. The increased funding is expected to expand the company’s product line and create about 200 jobs. The investment comes through the somewhat fittingly-named “EB-5” program, a product of the Immigrant Act of 1990 designed to encourage investment in American companies by potential immigrants.
