Buell XB12STT Lightning Super TT (2007 – 2008)

Buell XB12STT Lightning Super TT (2007 - 2008)

The Buell XB12STT Lightning Super TT is a force to be reckoned with on the city streets, packing 84 ft. lbs. of torque and a broad powerband from its Thunderstorm 1203 45-degree engine.

This potent V-Twin powerplant features DDFI II electronic fuel injection and the Buell Interactive Exhaust, tuned for ultimate performance and control. The result is a bike that’s as at home carving up tight corners as it is devouring long stretches of open road.

The Lightning Super TT’s design is a study in contrasts – sleek and minimalist on one hand, with its racing-style number plates and white Surlyn flyscreen; yet begging for customization on the other. Whether you opt for the Barricade Orange or Arctic White airbox cover, this bike is sure to turn heads wherever you go.

The Lightning Super TT is more than just a stylish streetfighter – it’s a serious contender that’s designed to deliver a thrilling riding experience.
