The dealer closest to me has a 2009 XB12Ss that makes me shiver when I look at it. I'm crazy about it. It was difficult for me to leave, and if I buy it, I may have to spend some nights in the garage with it. The blacked out frame and engine really make it look that much better. I would most likely pay close to list, they seem to know that the black ones will go faster.

They also had a 2008 XB12XT, with only 1,700 miles on it. The engineer that owned this bike changed the oil monthly. It is immaculate. The dealer wants only $8,995 , and I may be able to negotiate a bit from there.

Any thoughts?

I don't think you can go wrong with either model. But, you obviously want the Ss. To that end, don't settle for the Uly just because it's has the better price.

To lend some perspective: In May/06 I gave a private party $8500 for an '06 Uly with 850 miles. He threw in the parts and service manuals, 3 qts of Mobil 1 V-Twin oil and a filter.
