Certainly a different variation on a theme....I kinda like it. Although every time I look at it I keep trying to figure it out... I can see all the Buell parts, but cant quite connect all the dots... its like it has morfed into a whole new being. Nicely done tho!

...Interesting to say the least. But nice job. Not a fan of cruisers myself but that's a mighty sexy bike

Fucken awesome! Surely that's not production, is it?
I'd be surprised if HD would allow Buell to put these out, it would cannabalise and quickly kill the Sportster market.
I know I'd have one, thats for sure.

I like the look of that, nice and lean, with some reasonable looking ground clearance.
Bet it sounds the horn with those pipes!

One hell of a ride.
What happens if you are over 3 feet tall?

Geeze it sounds like you think bikes are supposed to be practical!Originally Posted by Big Dave
Any way it doesn't matter. With what looks like a rigid rear end once all of your discs compress its surprising how much height you lose.
As for the legs, thats where the forward controls come in.

It looks damn cool. Very inventive. All he's really done is make a new frame. No doubt there's a few other bits and pieces but that's about it. Nice.
Zen wisdom: No matter what happens, somebody will find a way to take it too seriously. - obviously had KB in mind when he came up with that gem

And its for sale on ebay, about $8000 US last time I looked....but you've prob lucked out now, i think it might have closed

Tough,us short arses need a break now an then.
You could use your knees to keep your ears warm mate
Bloody neat bike I'm thinkin'.
One hell of a ride.
Yeah - i know, too critical - I tried a hyabusa on for size over at motohaus and kerry pissed himself when i didn't fit on it. my legs would have to ride outside the fairing and looked preying mantis like.
that's why i like my buell - it's 6'5".
Queen of Chief and Victorious
yeah i can see why... I tried to sit on a Ulysses, not a hope! And I am reasonably tall for a woman. I think you'd need to be at least 6ft (probably more) to feel comfy/stable on it.

That looks better than a Harley imo, I wonder if there was a clause in Buells contract with HD, that they were never to compete with HD by making cruisers?.
Homer you shot the zombie Flanders !
He was a Zombie?

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe HD control 51% of Buell so I don't think you'll see Buell going head to head in competition with HD in any segment any time soon!
"channellling the Pleideans"
I really like it.
In fact I like a lot of the new school and new old school choppers: Jesse Rooke and Roland Sands and those guys. Particularly Roland Sands stuff cos he used to be a roadracer, so he wants something that handles. It doesnt hurt his family owns PM either.
