That is a tough call. They are both nice. The lightning, I think looks meaner and would probably be better for country roads than the Firebolt. Only because the Firebolt offers more wind deflection for high speeds. If you're into rippin the turns get a lightning. If you like going 100 mph plus I'd consider the Firebolt. Good luck.
By the way, be careful in the turns with that thing, the littlest goose on the throttle and you'll spin the rear wheel and be eating the ground before you knew what happened. They have a TON of low end torque. Seen it happen MANY times.

the xb r is a more laid over riding style. the xb-s is more of a striaght up hooligan kind of bike. they are both great bikes to ride.
