the standard Buell gearing on my X1 is
55-29 UK gearing
but there is also the option of
61-27 US gearing
the US Buell ratio pulleys are a bit hard to find & can be expensive
(be careful as Buell Blast pulleys are a different width)
Sportster rear pulley (part no.40246-91) has 61 teeth
this will fit BUT you need to enlarge the central big hole by about 3mm internal Dia.
i only changed the rear pulley on mine which gives 1/2 US gearing , but a marked improvement in bottom end response
be aware though this alters your speedo , it will be around 10% optimistic
for full US gearing front & rear pulley , you are going to need a US spec speedo .
