Why dont we just make one whole new drag bike out of them all, So excited about you getting another bike Jacob, you go for it and to have a Buel in the Tauranga crew stable will be awesome (if thats what you decide on)

Thats pretty rich coming from someone who rides a hairdressing appliance.

Well I agree with DMNTD about a sport bike not really suiting me. Would be fun I admit and I do like the look of the R6 but my main reason for wanting a sport bike other than the better handling is to keep up with you folks.

And lets just face facts, that ain't gonna happen. But I don't want another cruiser. Too soft and slow in the twisties without constantly worrying about the peg or exhaust levering one of the tyres off the ground. Tourers aren't my thing either ( No offense Unit, Blackbird2 and Bravo1) Too broad a purpose.

Leaving the upright nakids, of which the only ones I like the look of as of now are the Superduke and Buell Lightning. And after all the shit I gave you about the 14, getting a Superduke would be very hypocritical lol.

Hopefully I'll have it before summer is over...

Oh and I don't see a drag bike powered by a Virago 1100 motor with a Vmax frame and wheelie bars made out of the Rebel frame really being practical.

Mate Im looking forward to the return of shit giving when you get your bike. The Buel you will most definitely be able to keep up with in the twisties. I hope your Main reason for your new bike is to Enjoy your outings more with us, get to the end no matter where you are in the pack (sometimes the best view is at the back, ya I know) going, yeha that was awesome.
By the way, who ever said we were practical

But would be fun (and cause for Lots and Lots of Burbon)

If it's too wet to go riding, you could always stay at home and spank the monkey.
