Buells are awsome, was the dumbest decision Harley ever made to get rid of them. Both companies would be in a better place right now
You can thank the Globalist CEO in charge of H-D at the time, that never rode a motorcycle in his entire monkey suit wearing life. And of course the Banksters subprime lending fraudulent practices. Check out EBR's 2024 lineup of 1190's that includes even a 175hp dirtbike called the Baja....
Erik Buell, would be proud.
The title says XB12 skidding. I think the bimmer skidded in his pants when the Buell came past like has was standing still (which he wasn't). Buells are so underrated.
Not only does the xb12 handle amazing but this one seems to pull like a freight train up top which is incredible!
With a good tune and proper exhaust these things boogie…you’d be hard pressed to find a better canyon carver
Love it when he passed him coming into that turn. Too early junior! Haha long live buells. Wow that Buell rips. If you want a raw experience of a motorcycle with decent power, addicting torque, good suspension, and amazing brakes get a Buell.
Amen 🙏🏼
The brakes are great for the street. 1 lap at pace on my 1125R at a big track would have my lever coming to the bar. At 75% I could ride it all day but kick it up to 98 and brake fluid boils fast. Haven't had my XB on the track. Should be better because of the weaker motor but IDK.
It's quite possible you may need a new rubber gasket in your master cylinder on a 15 year old sportbike, since brake fluid absorbs moisture like a sponge. But yeah... the perimiter placement of those brakes does cause alot of heat, meaning brake fluid is important, Motul RBF660, paired with EBC metallic pads, and upgrade away from the floating disc mounting setup to the Eric Buel Racing solid mounting kit.
Who needs modern bikes when you can have this much fun on an old buell!
Love my 02 buell thunderbolt😁
Reading many comments from people who likely haven't owned a Buell XB. I have owned one. They are fun (when running), and have lots of character, and do handle well. But make no mistake, this video was showing a faster RIDER, not the faster bike... the s1k is faster, let's not kid ourselves.
That being said, I've sold my XB, bought a japanese, and am now looking at getting a Buell again.
Never sell a Buell! They are keepers...
Not much out-handles a Buell when ridden properly. Only handling limitations are tires. It's like the miata of sport bikes.
Update: rented a Buell, realized I was remembering with rose colored glasses, bought a Speed Triple.
@@gjkMN lmao 😂 at least you were honest
Probably better for you.
A fast smooth riding BUELL, just as it should be drive...... only BueLL driver can understand!!! BUELLER FOREVER
You got that right… riding a Buell for the last 11 years.👍
Those who know.. know.!
XB series buells some of the best handling bikes ever made. And sound awesome
K&N Air filter and Remus Revolution exhaust make my XB12 sound amazing. Love the mechanical feel and the massive torque combined with the awesome handling
@@dusty111 I have an 09 XB12s dean adams exhaust, 98 S1 and a 2015 EBR 1190sx (Beast) with dean adams exhaust as well. Friend has an 05 XB12s with a NHRS 1250 kit, ported heads and cat 3 cams. It is night and day more power compared to my 09. It Rips! Hammer Performance here in the US also sells great 1275cc kits, head porting and cams for buells. I plan on doing mine this winter.
@@fvgc454ss what made you go with the Dean Adam's exhaust?
@@gibbontakeit9098 sounds bad ass n makes great power
@@fvgc454ss fair enough! Thank you, I've been looking around, Force was a company I've been looking at, get to get just honest opinions sometimes. Thanks
Szia Dâvid László vagyok Magyarországrol, nagyon tetszett a videó, azt szeretném kérdezni kérdezni hogy, ha akarod meg tudtad volna előzni a buellt?köszönöm
Köszönöm
I'm amazed that a Buell with a HD engine can keep up. I'm hoping to get one next year. Can't wait
Well to be fair it shares very little with a Harley motor. And it takes a rider with some skill and a willingness to hang it out to hang with an S1000. I've ridden both, currently own an XB-9R (among other things). Buells are great fun and cheap. Enjoy.
Thats the thing... bueller probably did everything we saw in 3rd and some 4th gear only. With way less shifting required you can be smoother, and focus more on things like line, body position, etc. Racers all say "smooth is fast" and the Buell's massive torque at even just 2000 RPM's makes it easy to pick the right gear for a certain set of Twisties forget the clutch and just trail brake in and grunt yourself out of every corner.
I waited years before I found mine but I’m the lucky owner of an xb9sx now and love it
I had an 04 XB-12R and people would say it wasn't fast but in Twisties it was as good as anything out there, better handling if you ask me. Def the best handling bike I ever had.
Buell’s handle like nothing else. 100% believe this. Shame they never got more power!
Except they did... The 1125 platform got 45% more HP than the XB 1203cc models (146 vs. 101) while keeping almost the exact same torque (82 vs 84 FtLbs) and losing 20 lbs, then the 1190 got another 27% HP & 24% torque beyond that (185 HP & 102 FtLbs torque) while losing about another 20 lbs.
The EBR1190 is a monster
@@fvgc454ss I have one, EBR 1190RX and i can confirm its a bullet train!! handles on rails and goes like one!
@@8406181100 i have an 1190SX. Dean adams pipe ecm 44 rear sprocket. Its a beast. Still love my xb12s tho
It always makes me sad when I hear "shame they never got more power" because it shows what a failure their marketing was
There is a reason Buells slogan is 'Own the corners'... and if the guy still has his exhaust valve in place, which it appers so, he is getting 85-90 ft lbs of torque on tap at low revs coming out of corners, with that famous V-twin traction that won H-D a century of flat track races. But I'd still get some tuning and a Bosch LSU 4.9 Lambda sensor with a wide band O2 sensor, paired with a baro sensor kit in the intake.
100% facts 🤘
Two awesome bikes and riders. I have an xb12s but not the level of skill or balls you guys have haha
Buell is back, 1190, numerous models.
I want to know what tires the Buell has. Maybe I’m not use to this style motor and maybe I need more skill but my rears always step out on me
I run michelin Power GPs on the street in the smoky mtns. Stick like glue once hot. But even a power 5 or hell even a road 5 won't let u down.
Which exhaust you running? Headers?
BlackWidow Headers + Akrapovic HP
Por donde grabas estos videos?, soy de Madrid y no conozco la zona, por hacer una escapada de fin de semana.
Carlos Sanchez es en Catalunya por la provincia de Lerida. Hay carreteras muy buenas por aqui 👍🏻😜
@@PorriAND Me lo apunto, se ve una zona para disfrutar a tope.
Seems like the Buell rider knows the road a tad better
Beautiful thank you..
Increíble video, se nota que le pones ganas para que tenga la mejor calidad posible. Sigue así!!!
Joan Jorda Molto Muchas gracias! Se hace lo que se puede 😅
When you think you are fast this happens..
Any idea what state this is?
UUrope
The guy on the BM doesn't have much idea. His poor gearbox certainly had a hard time.
Honestly it looks like you don't trust the bike. Keeping a higher gear through the corners allows you to be smoother and it unsettles the bike less, which means your exit speed is higher and you dont need to row the gearbox so much.
Thanks for the tip, I'm well awere of that, but i like to stop the bike with a lot of engine brake it makes me feel safer aproaching the corners, also I used to ride on a little 600cc prior to the S1kR and I'm still trying to change the bad habits of smaller engines needs... 😅 Anyways, thanks for the tip again!
There's always an expert...
Is that higher gear or lower?
@@SinOjOs-Transport higher, so 4th instead of 3rd for example.
Nothing like getting schooled by a bike with 80hp.😄I've been there
Hey 98hp! 🤣
more torque, grunts harder out of corners. Hard to beat
Folquer- Isona !!! Muy buena y conocida ruta
Telita con la Buell!! 💪
Uff me hizo sudar de lo lindo 🤣🤣
Ya ves. 95cv, tiene 5 marchas y corta a unas 7000 rpm. Yo en la mía a veces sigo buscando la 6ª, jajaja.
A disfrutar.
Bet ya the Buell rider never shifted out of top gear -never changed one
Nah to get full use of the torque you need to shift, like in accelerating coming out of a corner.
Hahaha geez how fast is he? Nice run🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Bro! The man has skills that's for shure 🤣🤣
Wow !!!! Nice!!!!!!!!
Me ha encantado, se parece mucho a la carretera de Pastrana en Guadalajara.
beautiful video
where is the skidding?
5:13
Què carretera es? Es muy chula
Es la que va de Artesa de Segre a Isona. La verdad que es una pasada, buen asfalto y un trazado muy divertido.
Is he just trying to make cool engine noises or why is he constantly gearing down and decelerating when he clearly wants to keep up with his buddy.
Thats 1 fast buell
Buell é fodaaaaa curva não tem pra ninguém
Nice ride!
buell pases at 3:00
Legit 💪🤘🫡
XB baby,,, say no more
Schönes Video
Szerintem a bmw sokkal gyorsabb mint a buell!
This driver is totally lost with the gears.... :(
Unconventional buell ???
Roman Powolny Well, It is for me, rare to see one of these up here and even more rare with racing ECU, track suspension set-up and more goodies.
