Hi folks. So insurance is writing off my '04 XB12S (at a loss to me of course). This is my thing I love my XB! I want a new one but there are no XB12's in Canada anywhere and I can;t even find a used XB12. I can find '05 09SX and brand new XB9S & R.... My 12 was race kitted. Will I miss the grunt of the 12 if I race kit the 9. Secondly, will my 04 XB12 race kit fit on the '05 or '06 XB9?

You will notice the loss as you think. Is it a bad thing, after the exhaust shootout I dont know!! I would say buy a 9, as they are a bit smoother and higher reving, and then buy a micron system to get a BUNCH of that grunt back!!

Yes, your race kit should fit no problem!!

Just my .02

Hey Edmbueller. Are you buying it back from the ins company? If so and your looking to sell the bike as a whole I am looking to buy a salvaged bike. Not sure how much shipping would be to the US though.
