    Don't mention Buells, you'll make Jim2 hyperventilate...

    ... and I'm sure Mrs Jim is well and truly sick of washing his undies after the XBnR test rides.

    Of course, I haven't ridden a Buell myself, yet, but I truly madly deeply fancy one.

    They're too pricey for me, though.

    Take a little trip north and come and try one. If you like twisty's you'll love it.
    It's like a little GSXR with torque.

    Too late. The damage is already done.

    But more constructively

    With all this positivity I'd just like to add ....

    I think they're fugly and they shake like a scared dog at idle.

    But thats just my opinion... I've never ridden one.
    Not even with yours!!!

    A mate had one up in AK, and I had a burl on one in Welly. Bloody good fun. Handle well, look the bizzo, and insanely cheap parts. Good bikes all round really.

    Tried one on for size at Sawyers the other day... fit too nicely.

    Did you know that the fuel and oil is stored in the frame?! Mr Buell thinks outside the square (fuel tank), huh.

    The exhaust ended under the bike, which looked tidy. The front disk was insanely huge and attached itself to the outer circumference.
    Someday we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.

    I fell in love with this green one.
    If I had it, I'ld put a "Kawasaki Wan'abe" Sticker on the side of it!
    Sold on Trademe for $13 000
    Found some good write ups for them on the web.
