Curious,

Is the XB9 stock can and header pipe the same as the xb12. It looks like it is in pictures. Does anyone know for sure?

No, the header pipe is large diameter on the 12 and the 12's muffler is completely different with an internal butterfly valve that re-routes the exhaust through a shorter path at certain rpms. The race pipe may be the same for both bikes however, but I am not sure. Check Buell's website to find out.

XBolt12 is correct... to add: the race can is the same for the 12 and the 9

the pipes are different, and the headers are aslo but the collector is the same size.

and for some reason the 12 muffler is a double wraped metal. The nine is not. don't know why but thats how it is.

The Xb9 muffler I cut up was double wrapped metal too. Looked like it was done just to make constructing the muffler easier.
