Can anyone recommend some good tank & tail bags that fit the XB's? Besides the ones that Buell offers. Thanks!

Eclipse (www.eclipseluggage.com) has been making motorcycle tank bags since 1974. Their standard tank bag fits my 12R perfectly. The new tail pack (model 300, I believe) looks like it would work fine. I have one on order but haven't received it yet.

I second eclipse. There's a ton of others out there but I've had my Eclipse Sport tank bag for 15 years with no issues. Not many would last that long, IMO.

I've used the Oxford expandable tail bag on my Firebolt. I wouldn't say that it's a perfect fit but it does work, carries lots of stuff and converts to a rucksack when you take it off the bike.

I use a Famsa E-MAX specifically designed for the XB, it's a great tank bag!

That Fasma bag looks very nice. What does it cost in US$?
