just bought my first buell...i,m in love. '06 xb9sx. been riding for 25 years since the age of 5 and love all bikes, at least until i put the first mile on this machine and it was like someone took every motorcycle and dirt bike i'd ever riden and put them into one. Am i dreaming or can it really be this good. i'd welcome any comments or advice about the xb9. | ||

Congrats! Advice: Read the manual carefully. Adjust the suspension to fit your weight and riding style. Keep tires at/near 36f/40r. Take your time testing its cornering ability (and yours too!). | ||

Ride it like you stole it and it will give you lots of miles with smiles. 35k on my odometer, Glitch is pushin 50k on his 03 9s. | ||

thanks for the advice. strangely enough this was the first owners manual i've ever read cover to cover, and now i've done it about 5 times. i've got about 100 mile on it now, and i'm getting used to the cornering on the bike, its amazing what great design can do for handling. | ||

That's exactly what I said! When I first rode my '06 SX it was like I was riding a motorcycle for the very first time! Truly a groundbreaking motorcycle. | ||

Congratz and welcome. I myself am pretty new around here and to Buell. I was a fan for years before I owned one. I bought an 05 XB9SX. Love it! | ||

Welcome to the obsession. You'll come to love your bike more and more and think about it constantly when you're not on it. Word of advice even though I know you've been riding a long time; don't be a fool - get full gear and wear it all the time. Better safe than sorry (there's cagers out there in case you didn't notice because your permagrin is affecting your eyesight).  | ||

Welcome to the brotherhood!!! Enjoy your new machine and new lease on life!!! I also understand what you are saying about the dirt bike feeling. My '06 XB12Ss is my first street bike after riding KTM dirt bikes since I discovered 2 wheels. My first ride on the Buell and I was sold. Welcome!!! | ||
