With a 53.7-inch wheelbase, the Lightning Long XB12Ss offers an expanded cockpit for the rider, a larger passenger position and 4.4-gallon fuel-in-frame capacity for extended range. For 2009, the suspension is upgraded to offer the supermoto-like handling previously found on the Lightning Super TT, with front and rear travel extended to 5.6 inches. A new, sculpted Streetfighter saddle maintains seat height at 30.6 inches and covers a handy storage compartment. The new Buell ZTL2 eight-piston front caliper enhances braking performance. A fuel-injected Buell Thunderstorm 1203 V-Twin engine with Buell InterActive Exhaust pounds out the power. The Lightning Long is available with Midnight Black, Cherry Bomb Translucid, or Hero Blue Translucid bodywork.
