I decided to find a new hobby.


Here are the results








Anyone else here rides?

 

Nice new hobby. Yes, there are ppl that ride here. I hope too in the future, but I dont now.

What is it,...never seen one of those before?

 

its Harley's answer to the sport bike scene i think..

 

Harely owns Buell???

 

 

YUP, it was their way of getting into the "crouch rocket" market

 

Really eh,.........didnt know that ^^. Thanks guys .

 

wasn't talking to you...

 

Uhhhhhhhhhhh, I asked what it was in the first post,............and all three of you basically answered or confirmed what it was. Its a harley,.......harley owns buell???,.......yes (02),........yes (YOU). I said thanks GUYS to all of the ppl that answered regarding what it was (even though you were not directly answering my question). Learn how to read. To make you happy though, THANKS Sarlacc and 02cls .

 

 

Ive only seen a couple commercials for Buell and their bikes are pretty sweet, Nice ride...

 

thanks guys. Its a blast to ride. I enjoy the harley sound from the v-twins

 

been out a while to. Drive one and compare to the jap SV650 Ducati 620monster. I made up my mind really quick to become a Buell owner.

 

the thing i like about them is that they dont really look like anything else on the road, plus they have a lot of features that are "breakthrough" for bikes.

 

Well it certainly does look different. I just noticed the front brake system,........never seen anything like that before either haha.

What type of stuff is breakthrough o2cls (if you know off the top of your head)?

 

well the only other thing off the top of my head that i know of is that the gas tank is spread all through out the bike, its not just in the top (where normal bikes would have it). This is to ensure that the weight of the gas is perfectly distributed throughout the bike.

 

the gas tank is in the frame (where it is grey), what you think is the tank is really where the air filter sits.

 

meh

 

former owner of SV650S... but love the new R6.

 

Congrats!!

Never was into the Buells. More into the Triumph Speed Triple look for a Crotch Rocket!!

 

I never got into the crotch rocket scene. I'm more of a big bike owner because i'm 6 ft 4 and 265 lbs. I got a 05 Honda Goldwing gl1800 chromed out.

 

Thanks 02cls and shift it. Pretty cool that they have set it up like that.

 

How is the aftermarket availability for the Buells? Does it feel higher then the crotch rockets?

 

nah its about the same. I have the lower seat. The real big difference between mine and crotch rocket is that the rockets handle bars sit very low , while mine I can sit upright and just cruise w/o laying my belly on the gas tank.
