Author Message   Jandj_davis Posted on Thursday, March 17, 2011 - 12:59 pm:        2003 XB9R Firebolt Battle Blue 22K+ miles (I still ride it) Race Kit Looking to trade for a Lightning (XB9S, XB9SX, XB12S, XB12STT, or XB12SS). There is nothing wrong with the bike, it just doesn't fit me for commuting. This past winter I replaced the shift shaft, put in a new Pro-series air filter, re-zeroed the static timing, re-routed the crankcase breathers, and reset the TPS. The front brake pads are only a year old, the spark plugs are only a year old, the rear tire is 6 months old, the air filter has about 45 miles on it, and the belt has about the same. I purchased the bike in summer 2007 from another forum member. In full disclosure, I did lay it down that summer in a slow corner, but have ridden 12K miles with no issues. It does have a few "minor" cosmetic blemishes, like a small dent in the header elbow (from the previous owner), and one of the headlight bezels is broken (my stupidity). I clean it about once a year, so it isn't perfect, but it runs great. The front tire probably only has on season left on it. It could probably use a fork service, but I don't ride it hard enough to know. I am looking for a lightning in the "same" condition or better. I ride my bike way more than I look at it, and make darn sure it runs as good or better than it looks. I'll get some pics up sometime soon-ish.   Jandj_davis Posted on Thursday, March 17, 2011 - 09:38 pm:        I'm getting a lot of flack from another forum over the asking price, so I'll say this. My goal is for a straight-up trade for a lightning. If I can get "too much" for the bike, I'll sell it, but really I just want a lightning. Here's some pics to enjoy!   Jacrex1 Posted on Monday, March 21, 2011 - 02:28 pm:        Looks nice ! good condition ! I have one like it I will be selling soon, just doing research .....   Indybuell Posted on Tuesday, March 22, 2011 - 07:50 pm:        Looks awesome. Interested in a Blast?   Noone1569 Posted on Friday, March 25, 2011 - 04:32 pm:        Do it Andrew!   Jandj_davis Posted on Friday, March 25, 2011 - 11:07 pm:        I am, but not as a trade for the 9R. I'll get my wife a blast as soon as she lets me.   Theskitzofrantic Posted on Tuesday, March 29, 2011 - 05:07 pm:        Is this bike still for sale?   Jandj_davis Posted on Thursday, March 31, 2011 - 09:24 am:        Sure is.   Jandj_davis Posted on Thursday, May 05, 2011 - 08:33 am:        Bump   Jandj_davis Posted on Thursday, May 19, 2011 - 12:57 pm:        No longer for sale. I found some HeliBars!
