Is it possible to go to the longer tail on an 08 XB9? If so is it worth it? Other questions i have is is this modification safe? |

It can be done but you will need to make adapter brackets because of the different mounting points where the frame meets the seat rails. |

It will be a pain in the butt, I saw a guy do a write up on it over on Buellxb.com . He had to machine the adapter, it turned out pretty good. Have you ever thought about going with a firebolt tail, That will get your length you need, If interested I may be willing to do a trade of tails. I have a 2010XB12R in mint condition. |
