Don't know much about 12s, but I had an 03 XB9R for 3 years/20k miles.

Best bike I ever had, been riding for 30+ years.
Handling was nothing short of amazing.
One of the things that makes a Buell unique is the feeling you get -

You'll be riding along and realize you don't feel anything under you... you're flying thru the scenery like Superman.
That's when you "get it".

The 12 revs a little slower than the 9 but have a bunch more torque.

I now have an 1125R and have put 7700 miles on it in 5 months.
It's better, faster, higher-tech, more fun, more comfortable than the XB9R.

Took a 2600 mile trip last month, had 2 - 400 mile days, a 600 and a 700.
Butt was getting sore on the 700, definitely get the Buell tour seat.
The stock seat is like a frying pan with vinyl on it(many parts are the same for 1125R and Firebolt).
Also drop pegs from a Lightning or a Ulysses help the comfort part.

Hope that helps
