==Description==
In launching the motorcycle company that bears his name, engineer Eric Buell sought to build a machine that would let the average rider enjoy the thrill of sports riding. At first, his unique sports bikes combined tubular frames with the engine from the Harley Davidson Sportster. But then in 2001 came new models—the XB series.
The XB bikes were powered by new engines specially developed for Buell—air-cooled, 4-stroke, twin-overhead-valve, V-twin. The XB9 series received a 984-cc engine; the XB12 series, a 1,203-cc unit. 
Both series featured an aluminium twin-spar frame with a built-in fuel tank and a swingarm with a built-in oil tank. This revolutionary frame was made for ultralight weight and a low centre of gravity. It also had a wheelbase short enough for a 250-cc bike. The rim-mounted front disc brake was a first for a production bike. Another of the many highly original touches include an exhaust located under the chassis.
This Lightning City XB9SX has a wild-looking exterior thanks to a visor and dummy tank made of a clear blue material, as well as knuckle guards and shielded dual headlights. The seat is by no means low, but the rider still sits in a compact—but not cramped—riding position. When cranked to life, the engine generates the characteristic thumping of a V-twin and responds faithfully to the throttle. With the engine's excellent low-speed torque, the bike's rapid charge from a stop will get anyone's adrenaline pumping.
Thanks to the ultrashort wheelbase, super-low center of gravity, and a steering head angle steep enough for a racing machine, this bike turns sharply and effortlessly, without having to push the handlebars or lean sharply. The combination of nimble, responsive turning and fast recovery out of a corner is what makes Buell bikes so thrilling to ride.
==Acquistion==
This bike can be acquired in blue by winning the 2-Stroke Legend Series, and in black by winning Race 3 of the Nostalgic Festival. This is only possible in the North American and European versions of the game.
