buell, haha

it's kinda the best chance anyone ever gave a harley engine.

why put such an inferior engine in such a superior design? the world may never know.

at least buell got smart for his new creations and lost the HD plant in favor of a rotax.

the new one is no Bimota Tesi, but I'd be interested to see what buell could do with a MV Augusta powerplant...

Buells are competent niche-market motorcycles, but they are certainly not the two wheeled world's best kept secret. Not everyone falls in love with it, myself included. My taste might be peculiar but both of the 1125 models are cool looking IMO. Not so fond of the erector-set look of the xb's.

edit: Maybe I should define "niche-market." By that I mean anyone that categorically rejects bikes from other countries. :rolleyes:
