What Buell would you stunt?

IMR-Merlin · 09-19-2009, 02:27 PM

Looks like I'm going to lock down a Buell for next season. Anyone have any input on which one I should get? Looking for input on known issues with problems and also part manufactures.

Thanks in advance.

I hear that, I just don't know if there are years or models to stay away from. Like shit breaks on them.
Doing the chain conversion isn't that hard.

I've got a firebolt xb12r, for purely stunting, I'd recommend the lightning. The firebolt is a lot more civilized and better on the track but if your just looking just for stunting, the lightning has a lot more punch behind it.
