Vehicle Information
Buell Thunderbolt Motorcycle - Street (1995-2002)
The Buell Thunderbolt, produced from 1995 to 2002, was a distinctive sport-touring motorcycle. All models in this series were powered by an air-cooled 1203cc V-twin engine, derived from Harley-Davidson's Sportster, known for its robust performance and unique character. Over its production run, the Thunderbolt underwent significant evolution. Initially, the S2 and S2T models (1995-1996) featured a 76 hp engine. In 1997, the S3 and S3T replaced the S2 series, boosting horsepower to 91 hp. A major upgrade occurred in 1999 with the standardization of the "Thunderstorm" engine package, increasing output to 101 hp. This update also brought substantial improvements to the frame, suspension, and the introduction of factory fuel injection for S3 and S3T models. FAQ:
