Don't know when it will be but unless some tubers are still out there my money will be on one of 24 XBSTT's still left. Of course it could be one of 9 XBRR's sitting on the show room floors, of course that isn't really fare all the race bikes never sellout.

I believe the 07's will be last since there weren't any incentives on them.

I don't think there are any tubers listed in the new bike finder at buell.com. I guess HD hated to make it public that they had dealers who couldn't move bikes in 8+ years.

They'll probably be sold at auction when the dealerships change hands or go belly up at some point in the future.

Just the thought of the possibility of a brand new S3T makes my toes get all tingly...

you're killing me dude.. I can't afford it... yet.

Of course it stands to reason that if that bike is sitting there for all this time, it will likely continue to do so for quite some time to come....

Of the ones in the pictured listing I say 1125r or cr. They all appear to be descending at the same rate which leaves them last on the pole. Haven't payed attention to the STT and shhhhhhhh stop bringing up the RR. Last one I checked on wasn't low enough for me.

That s2t looks awesome, but so does that x1 stripe even though looking at the front tire of the x1 makes me think it is not brand new like the s2t is.

A local dealer has an '95 S2 and a '96 S1 on the floor now. Both with less than 200 miles on them... The S1 is calling my name....(must resist)

99 X1. The dealer has a bunch of tubers, some new and some used.













I don't know if they are still for sale, but like they say, money talks, and everything has a price.

I talked to one in another state not long ago. Salesman in email gave a price and said he had a buyer trying to finance but to make an offer. Didn't like the feel so i never replied. That sucks if they're all gone now. It'll have to remain a what if. See I told everyone to shhh...

Last I had seen the total numbers jumped and now as you say they've dropped down a few. Just have to drool over pictures.

Nice old shovelhead up there too.
Is that like a "new" 1978?

It looks like the dealer is archiving the bikes on that shelf.

That isn't a 99 X1. Brake rotor is wrong, and there are no holes in the tank cover.

"White Lightning"? X1 is neat.

Hopefully whomever bought up all the XBRRs lists them in the registry list being attempted. Neat to know for historical purposes I suppose. I still want a street model with that engine!
