There is another bike that could do it and it's posted here in the for sale section. It's a 97 S1, it look very bad ass but I'm a bit scared of the reliability of the pre xb models could you please help me here guys? | ||

No problems with my 96 S1! Although I have had a few thing come off over the years. For instance, this dropped off today!  | ||

ahh, you dont need that piece buellfighter! 97 lightning here, no real problems yet, except keeping rubber on the tires and the front tire on the ground | ||

tubers are easy to maintain, fun, crash well, and are relatively cheap... whats not to like? | ||

Well I know a guy with a m2 and he told me he didn't trust it for long trips and I read many things about reliability issues on the pre xb model so I just wanted to know from owners. | ||

One of my '95 S2's has over 150,000 trouble free miles, my S2 has almost 50,000 and it's had no problems. | ||

Mine has had very few problems that weren't at least partially my doing. | ||

I just completed a border to border ride (Mexico to Canada) on my 1995 S2. 4000 miles by the time I got home. I trust my Buells more than my BMW's. M | ||

Have a 97 s1 and haven't had a problem with it. Well other than getting the carb tuned for the new exhaust. New at working with carbs and this has definitely been a learning experience. Other than that my s1 has taking a beating and still come out on top. My brother in-law rear-ended a s-10 pickup with my bike and the only things I had to replace was a couple of motor mounts and headlight. I wouldn't give up my tuby for anything. |
