I love my 03 9R firebolt. I'm lucky enough to have a bunch of rare hard to find performance upgrades, and orginal track bike modifications that where done. Adjustable swingarm for the chain drive conversion setup. Ohlins rear shock, Billet aluminum Heli bar upper triple tree, P&A race kit, and the magnesium wheels. 1125 ZTL2 front brake setup. EBR 1190R front rotor. Her name is khaleesi. Because she's a queen of the curves.
I would love the ztl2 caliper and rotor for my xb. I had wanted to look into doing a wheelset swap from an 1190, but im not sure what that all entails. Just acquired my 2nd xb9s the other week. So now i have 2 xb's that need love from neglect.
1190 wheels are sweet. I believe the front wheel needs spacers to work as the axle is slightly larger. And the rear should work. Seen few in the buell forms that have done the swap.
@Ashton Marie Franklin awesome thats good to hear! I see you poking around the buell groups from time to time, lol. Nice to see you here. Thanks for the comment!
I baby her, i have an x1 that im slowly rebuilding. And theres a possibility of buying back an s3t that i once purchased with title issues. That s3t was in amazing condition, and only 5k miles, silver body with nuclear blue frame and wheels.
Just bought my first buel bx9s love the bike. Just one question all the sound it makes when you decelerating is that normal? I know it’s not a knock it’s like a vibration or something when you gone it it go’s away and I know motor is fine. Also more noticeable In town when your just going slow.
If you're feeling heavy vibration on decel at a certain rev, it could be an indication of bad isolators. I feel a heavy vibration on deceleration on both of my xb9's both of my isolators appear to be fine, so it seems like it could be a characteristic of the engine. Im not a mechanical guru by anymeans, im just passionate about these machines. Your best bet would be to visit some Buell groups on FB and clearly ask your question there. A lot of great minds in those groups.
Love my XB 9 more then any other bike I’ve owned

Most people I know complain about how much they hate roundabouts. Those people do not ride motorcycles.
Roundabouts are great, when traffic doesn't obstruct them.
