Magazine Articles:
Rider -- September 2005, page 24 -- Little Big Buell: 2006 Buell Lightning Long XB12Ss
"Buell has created the Lightning Long XB12Ss, essentially a longer, taller, wider version of the 1,203cc Lightning XB12S. Although still smaller and lighter than most bikes with half the displacement, the Ss is a Buell that a larger guy or gal can appreciate -- the Buell for the full-figured rider, if you will." -- Mark Tuttle, Jr., Editor
MCN -- February 2006, page 15 -- Bug-Eyed Streetfighters Face Off
"Identical to the XB12X Ulysses engine, the Sportster-based 45°, OHV, T-twin uses Delphi EFI drawing air from a single 49mm throttle body to make 81.0 hp on the dyno -- a huge increase from the latest Sportster's 58 rear wheel hp. We're always impressed that the Buell motor works as well as it does, based on a design known more for style than performance." -- Dave Searle, Editor-in-Chief
