09 Buells and Harleys

From the front it looks like someone blowing compressed air into their face and having their cheeks expand out.

Colostomy bags.

Like we're 'yellow' guys. All right for that Hippie on his chook chaser - but come on.

Yeah that banana bike riding poofta!

Damn, the buggers have deep sixed the STT for 2009!!! Looks like I'll have to get an XB12XT then, with the Uly front fender rather than the hugger.

[Zebedee2]

Must buy one of the current XB12's before they go trendy and start competing with the Japs and Italians what's wrong with the brick brutal look, Landrovers are still going after 50 years and are hard to beat, simple and functional!! Eric you fought fashion why give in to it do your own thing

[BuellBunny]

Gimme gimme gimme the Night rod..... I want one!

>>While its rigid chassis lends itself well on a smooth, fast racetrack, on the often bumpy, cobblestone-laden roadways the entire bike - especially the rear end, feels way too stiff.<<

In the copy they mention it has three way adjustable showa suspension both ends.

Like, go figger boys.

A trip to Messrs Harris and/or Taylor would sort that out...

Or Cobb - but really it don't need nuffink but tuning - until rebuild time. They are good end showas. I've replaced enough suspension with Ohlins to be a huge fan. Not worth it.

Yes.

If bikes have a face, then this is the face of the Buell 1125CR:

What he said!

If you think you can out ride stock susp (that's been setup for you) on a modern sportsbike on the street...you're either full of shit...or need to go racing.
