I was looking at the model descriptions at the top of the XB forum and it doesn't have the years for each of the models like the old school forum does.

No, I don't think they still make the TT. When I get a few grand, anybody wanna trade a TT for a Firebolt/cash? I wish they still did though! Maybe I'll find one still in the box, stashed away at a dealer.

Gunut75,

Fat bastard has a new one @ Bumpus Harley for sale. He might trade for you bolt.

IMHO the XB12STT is the best XB ever built.

I was scratching my head over the 2007-current on the TT also. Wondered if maybe in other markets it is. It and the XP are good and that new 12sx sounds interesting.

I edited it to end the confusion. The STT was only officially made from 2007-2008. For 2009 they changed the plastics and renamed it to the SS.

the Ss was being made at the same time, got an '07 Ss, so the TT did not turn into the Ss, they just stoped making them.

Yes the original SS was from 2006-2008, then they merged it with the STT for 2009.

So the SS and STT have the same suspension and frame then right?

The 06-08 SS had the SS suspension, the 09+ SS has the STT suspension. All use the same frame.

Sorry, late in the game, but STT has the fork rake and steer of 21 degrees. SS has steer rake of 23.1 degrees and fork angle of 21.6 degrees. Big difference. I'm looking for an STT frame.
