I'll be purchasing a used xb12stt in a few months, and was wondering what the known issues are. Stator is the same as the problematic Uly stator. Are there wheel bearing issues? | ||

Juan, Check here. I asked the question when I got mine in Dec. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/327 77/526478.html?1262565921 | ||

May cause an overwhelming smile that will take you weeks or even years to deal with. Get it, ride it and fix it if it breaks. | ||

The only problem i know of is that i didn't buy one! | ||

>>>>May cause an overwhelming smile that will take you weeks or even years to deal with. That's the biggest problem I found. I was so excited while the bike was in development that I flew to East Troy and spent a day wringing one out . . . it's a REALLY great bike. Don't be fooled by the "parts bin" mumble-jumble . . the bike is really well sorted out and a ton of fun.    | ||

Court, those are great photos. I just bought a used one with less than a year of use, just under 4K miles. Only problem I see is the yellow airbox, but it doesn't look as bad in person as the pictures do. I wonder if the muffler will rust like the Uly's do? I'm considering powder coating it, I'll at least put a couple coats of heat resistant black on it for longevity's sake. | ||

The only problem I know of with the STT is I don't own one. If you search on Youtube there is a really good video Danger_Dave did on them that will make you want to own one really bad. | ||

Firebolt020283, it did (along with the awesome track session out at the Miller Motorsports Park), and now I do. Glitch, thanks; that cinches it, now I gotta pull that thing off. | ||

I'll give you a hint, they have the same part number and they both answer to the name, rusty | ||

Well now I've got switchgear from the Uly's heated grips, and a relay, and the Aprilia mirrors, and a shop manual (plus maybe the owner manual too) coming from American Sport Bike, Yehaw, Thanks Al! Now to order a Laminar Lip for it too, all this stuff should help make it an all weather machine. | ||

The only problem with mine is it sat too close to a Uly and a firebolt one day and came home like this....  | ||
| No_rice |
the poor thing is still cross dressing huh?! lol | ||

She's just got an identity crisis thing going on! | ||

Here it is,  This needed fixing, but was pretty easy to do:  Still on the fence about this one:  | ||
| Littlebuggles |
I've got the Uly switch gear on the right side robbed from my Cyclone to run the 'lectric grips already put on, I hope to have the install on those done tomorrow, pending a few bits of wire, some splices, and stealing the right hand guard from the Cyclone as well (the one it came with is cracked). | ||

Bought it right after it hit the market. ZERO mechanical troubles. (Message edited by BLACK on February 26, 2010) |
