Well my XB is gone, Long story short a woman pulled out in front of me and hit me pretty much head on. I went over the bars and her hood and ended up in the oncoming lane, luckily no one ran me over. Surprisingly I only have some bumps and bruises.    I was looking at getting an 10 Z1000 or Triumph Speed Triple but then I found an 08 1125r w/1300 miles for dirt cheap! I pick it up on Saturday. Gotta keep it in the family!! (Message edited by NorthernYankee on November 02, 2010) (Message edited by NorthernYankee on November 02, 2010) | ||

wow - born under a lucky star, or something ! congrats all 'round..... do you plan to deal with your new '08 "as is"; or will you update it fully to '10 spec; or what ? | ||

Man now I feel like a noob. What changes are needed to bring it up to 10 specs? First things I looked at so far were OEM lowers and a tail eliminator. | ||

Do you still have the remains of the XB? Any usable parts you can sell off? | ||

I had some stuff on there like the Penske double clicker, BMC Race Exhaust, Corbin seat that weren't damaged. But I have $3000 in aftermarket coverage so they gave me the money back for everything that was on there damaged or not. So basically they are taking everything. | ||

Nothing. Just put a race ECM on it, leave the rest stock, and ride the piss out of it. | ||

It will show up on ebay as parts from one of the dismantlers, I've grabbed a few needed items from the one in Ohio so I can't say bad things about what happens to a wreck after the insurance companies take them. |
