holy smokes! if you have'nt been by a buell dealer lately you're missing out!
i checked out a couple of signature series 25th anniversary sweethearts yesterday and boy were they pretty, i sat on them both (i think i was shaking, hehe), a white and blue firebolt, blue rims and blue lettering, super sharp looking - and a shiny black lightning! both of them had a cool erik buell signature at the top of the trees! yeay!!

Spidey,

Evidently the engineer didn't want your nuts rubbing on his tank. : D

What's with the blue tape?

"i checked out a couple of signature series 25th anniversary sweethearts yesterday and boy were they pretty"

I sit on my 03 everyday, its just as pretty(if not better) as an 08, matter of fact, it looks just like an 08. I'm waiting until '10's roll into dealers, I do believe we'll be seeing new NEW bikes.

I'm thinking of buying the 25th Anniversary insert badge and adding it mine. I recall seeing it and the part # in the 08 Parts Manual.

I cant wait to see the blue Uly. I might tell the boss (wife) I need one.

I might even consider buying some black wheels and painting my orange plastics blue.

The white Firebolt looks really sharp too.

Ball protection

Actually it had his name written on it and was to protect it from buckles...

You have been missing a TON!

New oiling system, pump and drive system.

New Throttle body and FI system along with no more TPS reset.

The list goes on...

Okay Spidey,
enough about the new stuff, spill the beans on the white tuber frame in the background. I'm fairly certain you didn't sign any non-disclosure about the 'tuber back there.

Well, as an XB9SX owner I really don't care for the blue wheels. I think it looks better with black. The dark see through blue with black wheels gives it the cool dark look that I like. Looks even better at night.

"spill the beans on the white tuber frame in the background"
Looks like a tail of an XLCR is in there also.
