Im thinking about getting a bike, and found a 2002 Buell Blast for 1000 dollars.

 

This will be my first bike, and I really know next to nothing about bikes in general; and less about Buell's.

 

Whats everyone's opinion of the bike, the brand, and the price?

 

Thanks in advance smile.gif

Ya I've got a firebolt, I love riding it but its been in the shop twice with only 1200 miles on it. Just whatever you do dont take the bike to A.D Farrows if something breaks.

The blast is a lot different then my bike, I've heard lots of good and bad things about it, just to warn ya

Hate to say it but run....run away!

 

It's a Harley sport bike.

 

Shakes like hell. Short wheel base, doesn't ride or handle that good. Forget long rides.

 

The main thing is PROBLEMS! Everyone I know that has one or had one, it spent more time in the shop than on the road.

 

Don't get me wrong, they aren't all like that but everyone I have come in contact with HAS been like that.

Marc, it would be a good first bike. What's wrong with it to make it one grand?

As far as I know, absolutley nothing. It's a friends bike, and he doesnt want it anymore.
