Reepicheep.
Centennial Park is east of Columbus, on Route 16 (Broad St.) near Pataskala. It's my servicing dealership now, but I bought my bike at another dealer. oops.... see map below.

you said it all...and you are absolutely right about the lighting turning in quicker when a corner sneeks out and grabs ya by the balls.
actually erik said it pretty good to...if he's on a road he knows he likes the R if he don't know the road ride the S.
Blake your not completely crazy...I was told only 250 were made....why because too many dumbass dealers are sitting on 03's...and I was told well go get the 03's from the other dealers. which is all fine and good except that the customer wants the 2 year warranty and the 04 belt upgrade.
well oh well the bean counters in fat moto world win again and the customer loses....
God love the big fat american company.....that can't seem to get their dealers to sell the product....why (said in dumb voice) Buells just don't sell around here....
funny ..neither did harleys years ago....thank god hollywood jumped on their bike or they would have gone bankrupt like indian....god knows it wasn't their sales force that fixed it.
can you tell I am pissed hardleythinkinman... |

I wonder if the bean counters will apply this logic to Sportster sales as well: No more '04's until you sell off all the '03's.
Could this be part of the reason for the E-Bay sales of late? |

Overhere in Europe the dealers have trouble selling the XB9R's,they even have '02 modells to sell!The9s on the otherhand sells good! They even give you the racekit for free! |

Have you tried Opto's race ECM on another 12? That would be the easiest way to see if its the ECM... |

Thanks Dana, Brian and Wycked for the concern, I really don't understand it either (I've gone from pissed off to simply puzzled), but the 12 is running really well on the stock ecm, and I'm happy with that. Wycked that's good thinking but XB12's are still rare here, let alone one that can run a race ecm plus the TPS reset to suit the donor bike.The other way of testing that is... what's the chance Dana of you bolting in your stock ecm for enough miles for it to readjust and see how it goes? No TPS reset needed. Please? (A check engine trouble code will be stored if the muffler actuator isn't fitted) |

Opto when I put the Drummer on and put the K&N in I started it a couple times with the stock ECM in it and I fouled out my front Spark plug.So I know its not gonna run properly. |
