interesting. I've been expecting that since the city-x came out. Not that big of a stretch unless there is something else below the radar... |

Great News!!! Buell in the Hyper Moto market segment at about the same time as HD gets into the Street Tracker biz. Wow, I am truly amazed at what these two can do when they want to. Both of my dream bikes coming out in the same year. Too good to be true. Wonder what, if any, changes will be made to the bike other than cosmetics? You folks are going to have a lot of fun on the 1200 City X. However, I am sticking with HD's Street Tracker as that is the look and basic performance I am after. Enjoy!!! |

I'd say that this fills the slot at least partially for a Ulysses Low. Next, swap out the tail sections and viola! |

I'm sorry to be unoptimistic here, but wouldn't a 12SX be the same as a XB12S with handguards, see through plastics, headlight grills, etc? No real improvements. Please correct me if I am mistaken. These are basically things you could add to your own XB12S. |

I wanted to get the XD for the street because I loved the style, but other Arais don't fit my head right. Settled on the supreme comfort of the Shoei 1000. Too bad it is one freakin' noiset helmet because it fits great. --Sean |

On the helmet issue I ride a XB9SX with and Airoh S4 with a peak and visor in matt black only £90 and it converts to a street lid and MX lid as well. Not sure if it is available in the US. |
