Seems awful cheap for what looks like a nice bike.

Considering the fact that you could buy a 2011 Lightning XB12S off the showroom floor for like $5,000... stupid Harley-Davidson killing Buell and then killing Buell resale values...

Yeah, Bill at Flyin' Miata picked up one of those fire sale Lightnings. It makes him smile.
"Tuber". Does that mean it has a HD engine and goes "potato potato"?

It has a tube frame as opposed to the chunk aluminum frame of the later Lightnings.
They sorta go "potato potato", but thanks to Erik Buell's exhaust team, it sounds more like a cross between a dragster and a John Deere tractor. (I like it...)

I think the purpose of Keith's question was to exploit the pun.

OH! Tuber. I get it now.

I still think they sound more like John Deere dragsters.

I want to build a cruiser bike with a John Deere engine.
