XB12 with a silver frame?
Same seat? That's not what the ad indicated.

The photo had already been posted and was being discussed in another thread...

Sorry for the duplication.

I'm sure it's close. It says XB12X Ulysses on the timer cover. My guess is it's an early mock-up. Look at the airbox cover, it is Amber translucent.

That's exactly what I'd expect from 'em, anyway.

Rick_a, see anony's post above, and the Buell ad from Sport Rider which is very obviously a very different motorcycle. The MCN "photo" ain't close.

I guarantee aside from the obvious ancillary details that will be it.

The concept is absolutely correct. Don't be scared

So what happened to the picture, then?

Have you seen how many versions of the XB there were before the final prototype? Come on, now.

I'd think a more likely story is there are 2 new Buell models... and the CityX is now available in Orange...

It really looks only slightly different from the teaser ad. How can it be that far off, then?

Oh wait...then again...a handlebar, hand guards, brush guards, a headlight grill, a higher seat, blue translucent bodywork and better tire lately do make a totally different model to Buell. So in that perspective it must be miles away!

Rick...

Longer wheelbase. More suspension travel. Looks like some kind of rack or something on the tail.
