Once the Buell Lightning had gone Long, it was a short step to seeing the sport-touring possibilities of the model, which with its rangy operator ergos and rangy 4.4 gallon fuel capacity was clearly suited t being ridden a lot farther than Squid Canyon.
All it really needed to take to the long road was a set of saddlebags and an all-day seat, and that's exactly what we have with the new Lightning Long Detachable Saddlebags and Lightning Long Touring Seat. The bags are made of rigid polyester to keep their shape, and they expand another two inches to accommodate additional gear. They're weather- and UV-resistant and bolt right up to your XB12Ss without detracting from its racy profile. The seat features a gel pad insert to keep your weight evenly distributed, and your fanny happy from fuel stop to fuel stop; and it does that while lowering the seat height a full inch. The passenger portion provides a more spacious and commodious perch than the stock unit. The prices on these accoutrement's are more than reasonable. That means you can morph your Long into a Longer for a good deal. See http://www.buell.com/ for more information.
