Seems to be alot of people saying they finally got there buell. Well me too...

I have been admiring buell XB's for about 6 years and wanted a black 12S and found one.

I drove to omaha for it yesterday. It is an 04 with 13xxx miles brand new tires and fresh fluids. It also has a full race kit on it that was put on it brand new. Everything is stock never chopped or anything.

I got it for 4K.... How did I do... It also came with a buell service manual.

Now if it would stop raining...... I cant wait.

The guy I bought it from was awsome and very honest. He said his brother works at one of the local HD dealers so he dyno'd it one day and it turned 115 HP at the rear wheel...

This sound high by about 20HP to me what do you guys think a 12S with a stage 3 race kit would put out at the rear???

Thanks
Tony

Stage 3? That's Harley talk right there.

Either way, you'll pull a corrected 105 hp tops if all he did was instal the Race muff, K&N and ECM. Perhaps with some tuning you might get a bit more.

Sounds like you got a square deal.

Oh yeah...it didn't happen until we see pics!

Stock and race kitted?? Your bike will do anywhere from 85 to 95 HP. Both these numbers one being on the low side and on the high side. But even 105 ??? Not a chance.

The kit was put on the day it was bought and was supplied by the manufacturer...

Close enough to stock for me....

The Buell Race kit:
Race ECM
K&N filter
Buell Race muffler

I had mine put on before I picked it up when I bought it new in 2003.

Given that you have the Buell Race kit.
Bads1 is right.
Your bike will do anywhere from 85 to 95 HP.
