2009 Lightning® XB12S Overview

Lowered suspension and a reshaped saddle drops the seat height of the XB12Scg to just 28.6 inches – for a lower center of gravity and a shorter reach to the ground – with no compromise to handling or performance. The powerful Buell ZTL2 eight-piston front brake caliper is new for 2009. Blacked-out engine, frame, swingarm, fork and other components give the XB12Scg a menacing new look. The muscular Buell Thunderstorm 1203 V-Twin backs it up with pavement-pounding power. Available with Midnight Black, Cherry Bomb Translucid, or Hero Blue Translucid bodywork.
