One letter off, my bad

BUELL Is Better

1.) The fuel is in the frame, unique
2.) Brakes are a average 7lbs lighter than competitors
3.) Better Drive and idler pulley and competitors
4.) V-Twin engine
5.) Muffler relocation, becuase all other brands normally do it wrong

Check it out for yourself.

Sorry but they are better and your welcome for the intelligence received from reading their website and learning.

Relax, Harris. It's all subjective. Oh, and I've owned 2 Buells...I appreciate their uniqueness, oil in the swingarm, etc.

VX = love it or hate it.
Ducati = love it or hate it.
Buell = Love it or hate it.

Different strokes for different folks....

Have a nice day.

My faithful steed is a 2000 CBR600F4. I used to carve the nearby mountain roads with the best of the liter bikes, but it and I have aged, and my long commute prevents me from riding as often as I used to. I wear my road rash with pride. As they say, there are only two kinds of riders - those who have crashed, and those who will. Count me in the former group (a couple times.)

im surprised no one mentioned any kawas......

[Bimati]

I hear ya, Cobra...I have crashed a few in my time both on the street and track. It's really true what they say about learning.

The old question has always been: If I had $500, how could I improve my bike? The best answer I've heard over and over is...spend the money on some protective riding gear and riding instruction.

After my first riding school and a few racing schools, it's all about control and finesse (among other things)...it matters little what type of bike you are on.

Awesome to get out with a group of people on different types of bikes and check 'em all out.

I still love em but I had to get rid of my 98 900rr. The thing bit me bad. 2 vertibre, all but 1 rib, femur in 3 spots and pelvis, 4 months in the hospital. So now for thrills I ride a raptor 700.

Yes, and it only takes half a day of labour to fix a broken drive belt.

Thank you, WormGod. I learned a new one today:

Its creepy to some that, as a 33 year old guy, I actually use that txt and even sometimes talk like that. I am a strange GenX breed.

AndyC, I too had a VFR750 back in the day. It was actually one of my first "vehicles" since I rode it to HS. It was a good bike for years until and elderly woman thought that RED meant GO and t-boned it. I was able to bail but the poor bike became street graffiti.

Since then, it's been all dirt bikes and ATVs. Always wanted an enduro, but I am afraid to ride on the street since the VFR. Seeing how 80% of the bikers ride around here, you couldnt pay me to join their deathwish crowd anyways. They are actually nuisances now and have no regard for anyone else on the road. Its a wonder I dont see more deaths of bikers due to their negligence. Its a sad fact around here, but its true. They and my past VFR incident will keep me from riding ever again on street.
