    Buell XB's or 1125r's?

    Hi...

    Anyone around here run a Buell XB or 1125r on the track at all?
    Better yet - anyone selling one at the end of the season all kitted up for track days?
    An older Xb would probably suit my pocket book a little better...

    I've been racing XBs for 4 years, a well set up XB is surprisingly quick around a racetrack, but won't rip your arms off, making it a great trackday bike. As much as I love my XB, I'd give my left arm (figuratively) for an 1125, it's flat out fast.
    My back up bike is a stock 2004 XB12R with built forks, Ohlins shock and steering damper, full bodywork and chain conversion. It's slated for chopperdom, so speak up quick if you want to see it.

    Hey Franz...
    I'm potentially interested... really depends on what your price will be and how soon you want to move it.
    My street bike is an 1125r with HMF and EBR tune. Love it!
    Send me a PM sometime...
