    Big Dave knows what he is talking about...

    As a fellow Buell rider I know all too well what its like to have your model no longer in production cos its been superceeded by a completely different bike.

    NOT just up-graded... but REPLACED by a new model... most tuber owners now purchase standard Buell and aftermarket parts via certain internet sites.

    The same thing is gonna happen with the Bolts...its sad but true...

    Resistant to change?

    hardly!

    When the Buell first surfaced most of the motorcycling world scoffed at its advanced (YES!) styling, suspension etc...

    Buell is ANYTHING BUT stuck in the past and that applies to us Buelligans...but we are only human and its a case of each to his own...just cos a particular model is no longer in production does not make it any less desirable.
    Fact: the S1 Lightning is still considered the PENULTAMITE Buell to own...

    Not if you actually OWN a Buell...
    Believe me, they are still very much admired.
    YOU may not agree but you are not a Bueller.

    I'm just teasing you

    I have a boring job for a retarded customer that I have to complete some time today... this is me procrastinating

    /edit: Interesting to note, the S1 is the most conventional of the Buells... bloody Luddites

    ha ha... no worries... I take the bait everytime LOL

    Just out of interest ( and apologies if I am taking this off-topic ) ... I have just been on my Buell Forum chatting to a bloke who has sold his XB (purchased brand new not so long ago) and is in the market for a.... S1 White lightning.

    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    I'm glad it's not really the penultimate Buell. That would be sad.

    How so? Is the S1 Lightening the second-to-last Buell to ever be made?
