Hey I'm considering buying an 09 Buell Firebolt Xb12R for $5000. It only has 1600 miles on it. I haven't owned a bike before so lmk what you guys think. Worth it or no?

Don't let it sit and idle in your driveway

Lmao it seems like that's all the previous owner did. I have a 27 mile drive to work each way and I don't really care about putting miles on a vehicle. Plus I need a daily driver, my jeep with 4.56s and 35s is horrible for my commute lol

No like don't let it sit and idle in your driveway without being on it. These all walk backwards on the kickstand while they idle and leave long ass marks...

You wouldn't happen to know from experience? lol

Yea... Had an old buell blast? w/e the 1200 was. Just got finished coating the shop floor a few days earlier, decided to go take a ride. Started it up and went into the office, came back and it was up against the wall with a 20 foot gouge down my new floors

Holy shit!!! Ok lmao I will definitely make note of that! Wow

Just gorilla glue a strip of boot sole to the bottom of the kickstand. She'll be mint after that.

Lmao

I think you have a death wish, especially if your first bike will be a xb12r.
