A Buell XB Series motorcycle dying shortly after the gas light comes on, backfiring when jumped, and having a throttle rubber fitting catch fire could be caused by using poor quality or incorrect octane gasoline, leading to drivability issues. Running low on fuel may also cause air entrapment or pressurization in the fuel tank, especially with high-flow pumps. Additionally, fuel vapors or spills near hot engine components could ignite, causing the throttle rubber fitting to catch fire.
