You've seen it before, and I'm no Rossi. The Uly is quite capable:

The SS and X and XT are the same frame and swingarm. Same fuel quantity.

You appear to be a right tall fellow. You'd be surprised how agile the Uly is. It handles the same as the SS. It's just...

The 9's and 12's get better mileage than the 1125's. I regularly get 45-50MPG on my 12 and I'm not gentle. I'm also a big bastard on a heavy bike.

I usually get 160-170 miles before the reserve...

I really do. It's the best of both worlds. It sounds great, but not to loud to the rider, but it isn't that loud off the bike. It's weird. You'd think that it would be really loud from the...

Buell has always had take it or leave it styling. I agree that the style team could use a little sprucing up. Much of that is budgetary constraints from mother HD. I would say with the success of...

Agreed!


It's hard to explain. Since there are so few of us, ownership kinda invokes "club behavior". You're instantly compelled to chase down and meet another Buell rider.

Maybe Buell...

I believe he is the record holder for the longest stoppie.

I think you are catching him at the end of a swivel going to the rear tire.

Think of it as a pirouette.

Psst. The CR is NAKED!


The 1125 is more like an RC51 in it's delivery. You'll ride the torque until the top end kicks in.

Great motor. You won't have any 600's running away from it.

The SS, X, XT, and STT all share the "long" frame. That is a frame that holds 4.4 gallons (VS. 3.8 gallons in the S, Scg and R) and has a longer swing arm. The head geometry is also slightly...

I think it would just lie down. Although, I have seen a guy that was nearly 400lbs on one.

Doing a wheelie even.

Looked like a little white, wheeled suppository.

I've never had mine to stand up. I've run 6 different kinds of tires.

I think the problem is worse with smaller riders.

That's what I thought. There's much less difference between the 9 and 12 in Buells than between the 600 and 1000.

What is the difference between a 600 and 1000 in HP and Torque. I always assumed it was significantly different. That's what I meant by not much difference between the two.

The main difference is...
