Hello Everyone. New here been lurking for a month or two doing research on the XB. I wanted an XB12X but ended up picking up a new 07 XB12STT for a killer deal. Does anyone know if the seat and Sub frame (tail section) from the xb12x/xt will bolt on to the stt frame? From the research I've done I think it will but am not 100%. I would like to swap tail sections so I could add hard luggage with out having to building something custom. Any input would be great. |

Yes they do. The STT uses similar subframe rails as the X. The difference is the STT has holes drilled near the bottom for passenger pegs, while the X has holes drilled near the top for the different tail light housing. I converted mine into a Uly minus the suspension, so I get emails all the time about it. Here is my "canned" response, feel free to ask if you have any more questions

You could get away with reusing the SS tail section rails if you are willing to drill holes. Optional, but recommended you can get the grab rails, triple tail, and Uly foot pegs/mounts N0526.1AKYBP FOOTREST SUPPORT,RIDER,LH,GRAPHITE GREY Retail Price:$159.00 N0527.1AKYBP FOOTREST SUPPORT,RIDER,RH,GRAPHITE GREY Retail Price:$159.00 N1016.1AK TAIL RACK W/GRAPHIC Retail Price:$105.00 N0008.1AKBYBQ HANDLE, GRAB, PASS LH, MAGNESIUM TONE Retail Price:$59.20 N0009.1AKFYBQ HANDLE GRAB, PASS RH, MAGNESIUM TONE Retail Price:$59.20 C0083.1AK COLLAR, TAIL RACK Retail Price:$5.20 N0018.1AK TAIL RACK DETENT Retail Price:$3.83 N1027.1AK HELMET LOCK W/KEYS Retail Price:$57.50 H0205.1AK MASTER CYLINDER, REAR Retail Price:$57.80 H1522.1AK BRAKE LINE ASSY, REAR Retail Price:$43.35 H0419.1AK BRACKET, REAR BRAKE LINE Retail Price:$6.60 N0006.1AK FOOTPEG KIT, RIDER, LEFT AND RIGHT Retail Price:$86.55 N0042.1AK FOOTPEG KIT, PASSENGER, LEFT AND RIGHT Retail Price:$92.65 N0320.1AK SHIFT LINKAGE ASSY Retail Price:$22.95 N0802.1AK BRACKET, SHIFTER Retail Price:$19.50 Thats the majority of it. There is a handful of fasteners and other pieces you need, but I don't have the numbers handy. Also the wiring is different, you will need to splice wires to get the tail light to work, and get creative to mount the battery and fuses.

Thanks so much Froggy! Thats just what I want to do. When you say "and get creative to mount the battery and fuses" can you post a pic or two of what you did? No way to bolt this stuff in the "stock" location of an uly? |

the wiring harness is different, and the cable lengths are shorter on the STT Also, I am running a custom hand made battery. I don't have a current photo online, so I will snag one tonight for you (Message edited by froggy on November 05, 2009) |
