Hey guys , I really love this bike...the only frustation at this time being the running in --like not being able to pass a briskly driven school bus on 684 in NY State..still it feels great and now i have set up the springs for my weight it feels even better. My final point is thta I am glad I have had all the children I want as I am sure the heat from the motor - 9S Low - is going to effect my fertility at some time...man , my balls get hot..do riders with the standard 9S seat get this as well... if they don't I may need to make a swap in the future Working away again this week, the 9S is a true weekend bike for me at this stage. Well impressed with this site, really useful information and a true sense of cameraderie Regards Adrian. | ||

he he. I thought it was a plus seeing that my second child has colick and I was happy with 1. well think of it as saving the 700 that you would have to pay for the surgery | ||

Data point: Regular XB9S seat. Balls all happy. I think the worse offender for baked balls is the Honda ST1300. I think the GAS TANK reaches over 120F on those things and people have gotten 1st degree burns from the hot air coming out of the fairing. Paul in MI | ||

So, does anybody know if the seat from a standard 9S will swap directly with the 9S Low seat, I am assuming that the only difference would be in the thickness of the seat material...I am getting used to the heat now, but i think it is going to be a killer in the summer | ||

Buelluk, after break-in, with synthetic oil, you'll notice that things are cooler. Plus, the Winter months are coming and what is now a negative will be a positive. Consider the Streetfighter seat that is shown on the buell.com website. Prof | ||

Adrian, If you ever catch a white 9R going 60 in the right lane on 684, that would be me. Not for long though, as I will be close to 450 miles later today. Maybe we can swap rides sometimes as I am done having 3 kids but my wife insists for one more. the problem I guess with marrying a younger woman. | ||

Id offer one of mine but he has colick. the wife wasnt pleased with me looking to put him on ebay whenever he starts screaming. | ||

I got 4 delightful little darlings myself. The fourth was a big surprise as was the first. I have always said I was raped in my sleep. I also thought about e-bay but was shot down on that idea as well - damm wife - would have traded a couple of them for a 12s. All joking aside - they are the four things in my life I could not imagine being without - everything else I could but the 4 little monsters no way. They all have their own dirt bikes as well now and love to ride. | ||

Buelliedan, I thought I was bad marrying my wife when she was 22 and I was 29. There is a reason why kids are so expensive. They are worth it, and with three, I have a shot at one taking care of me when I am old. Do you really get to ride all five bikes? | ||
| Buelliedan |
I don't need children to take care of me when I get old. Thats the reason I married a younger woman!!  As for being able to ride all 5 bikes. I ride 3 of them: S2, S1 and the X1. My wife rides the Blast and the RSS is not ridden due to it just being so damn pretty!!  | ||

Then may I requalify myself and state that I possess three bikes and three kids. 03 XB9R (Mine) 99 M2 (Holding out on the right price) 03 Intruder 800 (Wife's bike, which she loves. I ride it sometimes to remind myself how good Buell brakes are). | ||

I just put a XB9S low seat on my XB9S. It does feel a little warmer now but its not enough to complain about. | ||
| Buelluk |
Signguy... What have you done with your old standard seat...you live in NJ, I live in CT Regards Adrian | ||
