Hey everyone, how much did you pay for your Firebolt XB12R. I have been chomping at the bit for one of these but I'm not sure I can afford it right now.

I was out the door taxes tag and title for $10,200. I think the statement "they are pretty much as powerful" is vague enough to also say then that they are pretty much the same price.

I bought the first Racing Red XB12R that came of the truck and I got it for MSRP plus tax and title. I think it came to $11,380 to get the bike out the door, but then I added the extended warranty so it was actually a bit more than that.

So much for an employee discount.

I bought my 04 XB12R in December of 2003 for $8900 out the door. The same dealer was selling XB9`s for $6300. Shop around for the best price.

And the 12`s have alot more power than the XB9`s. Ride both of them back to back and see for yourself.

My '04 purchased on September 30 (ordered August 1)was 10K plus tax and whatnot so $10,600, what is the deal with the 7 year warranty, I was never offered a extended warranty. Very interesting......

Central Texas HD is selling their current XB12 stock at 8900 to try and clear them out.

Contact the shop at 512 973 8521 and ask to speak to a sales person

You know I actually looked at a deal just like that before I bought, and after paying all that dealers' fees (it was not the specific dealer you mentioned, but the dealer I looked at included every fee I had ever heard of) and then the additional shipping to me in Virginia, it only came out like $200 less than if I just went to my local place and rode it home that afternoon. YRMV.

Yeah but Buells are tough and reliable now and a demo should not be a problem.
