Hey Guys, Hadn't hit the board in a while, so just wanted to touch base. I've got silver XB9 1050cc kits in stock and ready to ship today! Also, the new XB Force pipes are getting very close to hitting the streets. We're selling the pipe in a total package kit (pipe, baffle, pre-programmed power commander, and hi-po O2 sensor) for $1325. They're available in either silver or black and should be shipping in the next week and a half. Brian's bro Richard just got done running 11.59 at 118 mph with his new XB9S with one of the prototype pipes on it last weekend at the AMRA event. This pipe is the real deal! Give me a call if we can help you with any of your go-fast needs! -Justin Schilling Performance Consultant Nallin Racing Services 303-833-4500 | ||

No shit! 11.59 at 118. That is damm good for just exhaust and computer mods. With some ported heads and the 1050 kit, the bike should be close to the 10's. Please keep us posted on any more info that you may get on the real world performance of our xb's. | ||
| Buellriderm2 |
Believe it or not, all he did was gripe about his 60-foot times because the bike wants to wheelie up so much. If he figures out a wheelie bar for that thing I think he'd be close to running a 10 right now. Make no mistake though, that pipe is helping him get there. The gains it makes in the low and mid-range make that ET possible. Richard ran the bike that bike once before bone stock and couldn't top an X1, now he's running a second faster.

Justin: Screw your pipe. The best acessory on THAT bike is young Nallin. I've sen him work. I LOVE seeing your name with Nallin. What an All-Star Team! By the way, the "screw your pipe" was like a joke.  Court | ||

I have yet to run my bike at the track but I think that I would be close to mid 11's with my combo. I dont know if I could make that kind of mph though. 118 with just the pipeand power commander is awesome. And people said that the xb's were underpowered. Hurry get a wheelie bar on there and shoot for the 10's. You would definitly be in the 600 cc jap bike range. You would probably kill them to 100mph! Good work Nallin and company! | ||

I have yet to run my bike at the track but I think that I would be close to mid 11's with my combo Dont be so sure about that. Its not as ez as it may sound. Have spent a great deal of time on the dragstrip with my bikes..well not the Dyna..yet...& most Buells set up similar to yours which is similar to just about all of the tube framers also, are running mid 12's & an occasional high 11. Have seen a number of them that also cant even get below a solid 13...a lot of that is rider error however. | ||
| Misato |
what kind of gains with the 1050 kit, say with the pipe kit.. | ||
| Ar15ls1 |
Well dyna, since you know everything and have nothing but negative things to say, I have raced at the dragstrip many times(probably a lot more than you). I have not been on my firebolt and yes it is not exactly easy to leave on, but I do believe that I may be able to squeeze a 11.50 or 60 out of it. From some of the bikes that I do run against on the street I do have an idea of what my bike will do at the track. Buellriderm2 even said that their xb would have come close to the 10s with a wheelie bar.Why do mid 11s sound so far fetched? Well I guess that you got your way. You started another pissing contest on another thread. | ||
| Buellriderm2 |
Misato, Any bolt-on big bore is going to give you more torque than horsepower if that is indeed all you do. Adding some heads however makes the whole combination come together. A stage III head, 1050 kit and a Force pipe would put you just over 90 tuned out. Bore the throttle body ($375) and you might go north of that. -Justin Schilling Performance Consultant Nallin Racing | ||
| Dynarider |
not ttrying to start any pissing contests at all..thats entirely your choice. I was simply stating that just because you "think" your bike will run mid 11's doesnt mean squat. Same thing as folks who have never had their bike on a dyno yet are sure it puts out X amount of hp. As far as strip runs go...I have slips going back to 1991...thats a lotta freakin runs I have made. I have met with a raced against a lot of folks who had never had their bike or car on the strip but "were sure" it would pull a 10 or 11 second run & then were promptly embarrased when they could barely manage a 13. As for the Nallin bike running mid 11's...I do believe these guys know a thing or 3 about racing & somehow i doubt the bike is stock. With their knowledge & parts availability I have no doubt they will hit the 10's. BTW...just what the hell was so negative about my post anyways? All I said was dont be so sure about it. Never said it was impossible or you were full of shit. | ||
| Dynarider |
1 other thing..judging your bikes performance by how it performs on the street against some squid on his honda or whatever is ridiculous. The guy may totally suck at launching his bike. Hell I spent 1 afternoon totally l kicking an R1's ass in town from stoplight after stoplight. Does this mean my X1 is a 10 second bike?? No, it simply means I am more proficient at racing & know my bike better than the other guy. (Message edited by dynarider on May 01, 2003) | ||

This was no wheelie bar and stock ride height. I really feel the bike has a 40 or a 50 in it with a little more seat time. Oh yeah that was launching at 5000 rpm and sliding the clutch about 20 to 25 feet.As soon as I get a hold of a camera I will scan the slips and post them.. See you on the salt!! Richard -JW:  | ||

Box Stock" XB9R with only a Force pipe from Nallin Racing Head Service and a power commander Umm Jim..you do of course realize that XB's dont come from the factory with Force pipes or pc's?? I stated "I doubt the bike is stock" & its not. Richard has already stated before that the Force pipe is giving them something like 11 or 12 hp more than stock..I believe thats what he said anyways. Thats a lot more than the pitiful 3-5 hp the buell race muffler is giving folks. I also said Nallin knows a thing or 3 about racing. Someone...I dont recall who, during the elves gig last yr stated they took the team elves bike out for a run & couldnt come anywhere near what Richard did. Hmmm same bike yet vastly different results..why is that?? Rider ability pure & simple. | ||
| Jim_witt |
Duh, That's WHY I posted the information DickHead! -JW:>  | ||
| Dynarider |
Dickhead?? I thought I was asshole, damn now I am confused  | ||
| Ar15ls1 |
Probably a little of both!!! | ||
| Ar15ls1 |
I just remembered. Isnt drag racing a firebolt or new lightning stupid? Didnt some of us buy the wrong bikes for this purpose. What is the Nalllin boys doing drag racing an xb? Maybe now its a little more accepted. Just a thought. | ||
| Blake |
Why climb a mountain? | ||
| Glitch |
I think maybe the dragrace was kinda like a benchmark. A referance, like the dyno charts. We already know an XB handles very well. | ||
| Ar15ls1 |
Why climb a mountain?? Why race a cyclone against top notch jap bikes when all you have to do is go buy one and be way more competitive. Its because we like our Buells and dont want to run what everyone else has. Sure its harder to keep up and more expensive but well worth it in the end. You are still riding an American built motorcycle that is pretty damn good! | ||
| Timbo |
So... Is anyone offering the 1050cc kit *with* the Force pipe and PC as a complete package? Does anyone have any Dyno #s for this configuration? Also, it seems the PC is being used with the stock ECM, but what if you already have the race ECM? When using the PC, does the race ECM loose it's advantage over the stock ECM? TIA, Timbo | ||
| Blake |
Timbo, Call Nallin Racing. They are the ones providing the kit and pipe and PC with mapping. | ||

Everyone check out Sam Migliori's dyno sheets in our dyno room. Sam is running Stage III heads, a 1050kit, Buell Race Exhaust and a Power Commander and he made 93 rwhp with his XB. Sam is patiently awaiting the arrival of his Force Pipe and then that thing is really going to run. Oh, and while you're at it check out Jerry Holmes' 107 rwhp XB12 that we just completed. We ran the same combination as the High Country XB12, but added a bored throttle body and a set of Red Shift 585 XB cams. See ya, Justin Schilling Performance Consultant Nallin Racing 303-833-4500 | ||
| Jim_witt |
So how much does Sam and Jerry he have tied up in there bikes? -JW:> | ||
| Jmartz |
"Tied up" implies that if "untied" it would be released or recovered. In this case its more like "divested", "spent" or simply "blown" as these funds are essentially irrecoverable. | ||
| Aaron |
Jim, I'm sure you can understand why we wouldn't want to disclose those numbers, details of transactions with customers is not public information. Let's just say we try our damndest to make sure they get their money's worth | ||
| Jim_witt |
Aaron, Oops, totally understand. Thought “they” might jump in here if they’re on the forums? There’s no doubt in my mind of your integrity or giving the end-users the best bang for their buck(s). -JW:> | ||

I read your post to my wife...her comment was one I'll remember her comment for a long time (and likely use it against her at least once) "spending money on your motorcycle is investing in how you want it feel...cost isn't an issue...within reason or ability to afford" (Message edited by xgecko on May 16, 2003) | ||

My wife said... "Buying the bike has always been the least expensive part of YOU owning one...*followed by*..."Here we go..." She didn't even blink when I told her how much the frame savers were gonna cost... I got the best bike and the best wife... |
