Probably because it's an I-4. The only reason why the gix is on my list is because I've sat one and it feels almost perfect. Most of the other bikes I have yet to sit.

The main thing I'm looking for in my next bike is comfort, which includes how well I can actually touch. Yet I don't want a torture rack. I've sat the R6's and the CBR's and the position is way too agressive for me and it's not comfortable for me. Weight is a semi issue. I prefer something who's weight will be close to the SV.

I would prefer another V-Twin. I love the power delivery of the SV and wish for something similar. Until I'm a more competent rider, I prefer to stay with something that's similar to what I'm used to.

Design/looks: I've always loved the naked and streetfighter look over fully faired bikes. Besides, I'm lazy and don't want to have to take more off than necessary just to change the oil. I break stuff almost everytime I work on my bike so I try to keep replacement parts cheap and to a minimum.

Give the Buell a fair shake. Go ride one. The dealer does demo's after all...and they give away free shit when you demo. Until the end of the month they are giving away a gear lock.

if they were really good would they have to bribe people to come try them out?

No local Buell dealership here and I'm not sure where the closest one is. I'll have to look...

They're having ride demos every Saturday in June. If I have a Saturday I'm not working all day, I'll have to check it out and at least give a Buell a fair chance...

They should let you demo any day of the week. Just show up.

What do the demo rides consist of? I've never done one....just a ride around the block?

I keep getting calls from the local HD dealer because I was checking out the Buells at the MC show in town. The sales guy said I can come down and demo ANY bike they have on the floor. They sound pretty desperate to make a sale. I'm going to take him up on it though one of these days, just to say I rode a Buell.

I still think the Gladius is a sweet lookin bike. Almost looks like the MV Brutale
