Well, not exactly as there isn't an "Eric Buell Signature Edition", however this bike's saddle bag lid was signed by Eric in 2008 as you can see in the pictures.
Its time for me to skinny down to one bike, so I am selling my 1999 Buell S3T Thunderbolt, I am the third owner. As the second owner told me, the first owner bought the bike and barely rode it, it was kept in his house and had less than 500 miles. The second owner though was newly retired and rode it extensively on long trips, including a trip to a Buell riders group get-together where Eric signed the lid of the saddle bag. I bought the bike in 2010 to replace a 2000 S3 Thunderbolt which I bought from a TWT and sold to another TWT. I wanted hard saddle bags and the T or Touring model has a different frame for attaching the factory saddle bags. Also on the touring model, you get a taller windshild, leg fairnings and hand guards.
The second owner upgraded the bike's motor mounting system and clutch which he said were the achieles heel of the bike. The exhaust pipe is jet hot coated inside and out. This keeps the exhaust heat from heating your right leg. The shift linkage is off a newer model Buell and is just as precise as any Japanese bike I have owned. He also added factory heated grips also from a later model Buell. Other accessories include: the optional Oz aluminum wheels which are very rare, a Throttlemeister, factory saddle bag liners, a laminar lip on the factory windshield, and two small soft Buell bags mounted in the fairing pockets. The second owner also gave me the owner's manual, the service manual, a second seat with a back support, a hand made front tire stand and a bunch of misc parts. He also gave me two vintage open face Buell helmets, which I will pass on if the new owner desires.
I have had the bike since 2010 and it has been trouble free, the bike need nothing except a new owner. The bike is 1203 cc, 101 HP, fuel injected. It has stock exhaust and stock air cleaner. It is a good riding bike.
The bike has 16,500 miles, of which 2,000 I put on it. I have a clear title and am asking $2,500. Bike is located in west Houston. If the bike sells through TWT, I will make a donation to the site.

I'd have picked it up the same day you posted it.
