yes, we know, no, it won't

of course, anything acn be made to fit anything, if you're willing to cut/weld/machine enough, but a sporty exahust will not bolt onto any buell

Are you talking about just the header pipes or the whole system? Also the new XL's have pipes for the standard footpeg location and a slightly different routing for bikes with foreward controls. Might have trouble routing around the framework on your Buell.

No.
All buells are rubber mounted. The whole exhaust has to be mounted to the engine/swingarm.
The headers are the same I think but the whole engine flops around with respect to the rest of the chassis
