Current ride: BMW F900 XR
Location: Leeds
I had a need to buy a new front Injector but XB Injectors no longer available at Riders :o
Apparently were around £120 each.
Alternatives prohibitively expensive at Twin Motorcycles (circa 190 euros each)
Found sets on sale at St Paul's (https://st-paul-harley-davidson-buell.myshopify.com/products/buell-fuel-injector-set-all-04-10-xb-models-u10c) so ordered an extra set.
Yours for £180 incl postage.

Couldn't you find any low mileage 2nd hand ones, I got a pair for my 1125r with 4,000 on the clock for £28 each also got 2 Plug coils for £35 for quick change ready spares .
Just an Idea Delw.

I considered getting them cleaned/re-conditioned. The advice from :maz: was get new.
Yes there's some available from breakers but as comments on here go, even clean, low mileage Buell's aren't without their issues.

Yeah, can't fault the advice, just the price.
