The belt tensioner stands out like a sore thumb...and the clear tank...yuck.

[ArguZ]

Thats a nice design for an electric bike...

Some things are best left unsaid. 

[Mash]

that's a huuuge front rotor.  i don't think i've ever seen one quite like that.  seems like a good idea.

it's a good looking bike (for someone else)

Nothing wrong with it.  I was very close to buying an XB when I came across a great deal on a Monster.  I almost bought the XB12STT...

Not a fan of the number plates, but it combined the best(IMHO) of the Lightning and the Ulyssess...

But I prefer the Chery Bomb Trans-lucid...


or the Hero Blue...


I test rode the TT...Very FUN...Short Wheelbase, Very Torquey...and another thing is you don't see many of them on the road, they are kind of unique like our Monsters...MAJOR Downfall..you have to wade through the leather clad weekend warriors at your local H-D dealership to even see one, and then no one at the dealership seems slightly interested in selling them or servicing them!!!  But it is anything like my old Sportster, maintenance is simple and can be done by almost anyone....

I can't remember exactly which model I test rode last fall.

I was unimpressed with the Rotax powerplant.  I've ridden Aprilia RSV's before, so I was hoping for power delivery similar to that.  Not sure how Buell was able to eff it up like they did.

I also noticed a lot of chassis flex under power (when you finally got into it's powerband, that it).  Very unsettling.

I'm with the "see a doctor" crowd

[Big Troubled Bear]

You need help

I really don't like the translucent plastics at all....on the other hand I bet their frames don't expand and warp when they hold gasoline like the monsters and sport classics.

I think they make some ointment for that....

If it had the Rotax engine, it was not one of these bikes....The Rotax is in the 1125R and 1125CR..both with the ugly side pods for the radiators.  These are XB Lightnings with the Harley built sportster engines....may feel a lot different than the liquid cooled Rotax??
