Whether you’re using it as a finely tuned track weapon or a daily commuter, the Buell® Firebolt® XB12R owes much of its handling prowess to the 52-inch wheelbase, 21-degree rake and 3.3-inches of trail. The aggressive geometry combined with the rigid chassis makes the Firebolt® XB12R nimble and precise. Up front, the Firebolt® XB12R features a fully adjustable Showa® inverted fork, while the rear is equipped with an adjustable Showa® cartridge. The result is a sportbike that seems almost telepathic, effortlessly responding to rider input.

Powered by a 1,203-cubic-centimeter Thunderstorm® air/oil/fan-cooled, fuel-injected 45-degree V-twin, this is the motorcycle for riders who demand a premium-styled sportfighter with the perfect balance of horsepower and torque.

Anti-sparkle is the theme of the new finishes created for this machine. The Rockertail™ suspension features a clean rear fender mounted on the swingarm, creating the look of zero suspension around the 240-millimeter tire. The minimalist style lets the design cues shine through. An ignition coil shaped like a hand grenade. An internally wired handlebar that could pass for sculpture. A narrow front wheel that stretches out before you. One of the lowest solo saddles of any production Harley®. The soul of going it alone, sculpted in metal.
