Ive had my xb9sx for a month now. got 750 miles now. D&D , K&N, and ECM. (barend mirrors,micro turn signals,Bra, frame pucks, Corbin gunfighter seat and also a carbon fiber seat cowl for the stock throne. and I just made some aluminum sliders for front and back. Turned out pretty nice. I work in a CNC shop so my lunch break has turned into my own little monster garage episode.) Anyway, I finally got my new leather / armor coat today, so I took it out and gave it a good hammering. This is really my first street bike. Im 34 tomorrow and have ridden dirt for years since my early teens. Then two years ago I got a Blast. Then beat the living crap out of it wishing it had some balls. Well, I got this a month ago and I got absolutely no complaints in the power department, and the handling is phenomonal. It is the perfect size for me. I am 5'9'' 128 lbs. So you can imagine how this bike just moves my little frame around the twisties. I am taking a wheelie school class in a few weeks, will learn everything from wheelies to stoppies. From what Ive been told the XBs are excellent stoppie machines. Anyway, I dont really plan on stunting this bike, or any for that matter, I think the course will be an overall asset. It is taught by the starboyz. So I will be learning from the best. I love this machine. |

5'9" and only 128lbs???? I am 5'5" and 145lbs and I thought I was skinny. WOWSA Anywho We need pics man. Your customizations sound awesome. One question, Are you still using the hand guards with those mirrors? If not, I know someone from this board is looking for a set, I just cant remember his username |
