2007 Ranges | 2006 Ranges | 2005 Ranges | 2004 Ranges
This is Lightning in its purest form. The Thunderstorm 1203cc V-Twin engine pounds out 110 Nm of torque, a mountain of driving force made more tractable by the Buell InterActive Exhaust and the short, 1320 mm wheelbase gives the XB12S razor-sharp reflexes. A coarse-texture seat and in-command riding position offer outstanding control.
Like the XB12Scg, the Lightning XB12S is offered in Midnight Black with Black wheels; or with the airbox cover and flyscreen in a unique Translucent Valencia Orange with Amber wheels, or new Translucent Cherry Bomb Red with Cherry Bomb Red wheels. In each case, the frame is Graphite Grey, the front fender and chin spoiler Midnight Black.
