Author Message   Rpmchris Posted on Thursday, September 08, 2005 - 10:14 pm:        You want the amber wheels off my XB12S, and I want the wheels off your new Uly. Right? Lemme know! PM me if interested in a trade - I may be willing to add a little cash...   Jlnance Posted on Friday, September 09, 2005 - 09:41 am:        Just a note of caution. The Uly wheels were beefed up to handled off road "bumps". If you put XB12S wheels on it, you'll loose that. Of course if you never ride it off road, it may not matter to you.   Rpmchris Posted on Friday, September 09, 2005 - 11:52 am:        Oh...didn't know that. Sorry. I haven't paid that much attention to the chatter about the Uly. I just love the color of the new wheels. If they are "beefed up" then they're probably heavier, too. I don't want that. Maybe I'll powdercoat mine...   Jlnance Posted on Friday, September 09, 2005 - 01:27 pm:        They are a pound heavier. I forget where I read that. I think its from the chat session Erik Buell did a few weeks ago. Thats archived around here somewhere.   Jim_sb Posted on Friday, September 09, 2005 - 01:34 pm:        Sure, they are a pound heavier but they should be put on *every* streetbike, IMHO. If you've priced new wheels and seen all the potholes in the roads these days that extra strength is worth having. YMMV.

Don't know how close that is to what you are wanting, Thought I would toss that up there.   Indy_bueller Posted on Sunday, September 11, 2005 - 06:51 pm:        Link to those rims please?   U4euh Posted on Monday, September 12, 2005 - 02:03 am:        http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2003-BUELL-FIREBOLT-STOCK-PAIR-OF-RIMS_W0QQcmdZVi ewItemQQcategoryZ35573QQitemZ4573658855QQrdZ1
