How long have you owned your Cyclone or other Buell? I was pondering this yesterday and realized that I've had B.Rex since 2002...nearly 20 years. And it looks as good (better, actually!) than the day I bought it. |

14 years on my 99 M2. I can't say it looks as good as when I bought it. Probably because it has 113,000+ miles on it not the 26,000 when I got it. |

Picked up my 97 S1 in February 2016. Sat about 6 months till I was able to get it on the road. It looks a little prettier than when I bought it, but that's not saying much haha. |

Bought my 2002 S3T in Sept 2002 so 19 Years next month. Many other bikes have come and gone over the years but the S3T is a keeper. Nothing else i've ridden or owned has as much soul as that bike does. |

01 X1 got in 2004 800 miles $5100 - not a scratch. I had to wait 6 painful years to buy it because of another horse. (Message edited by victory on August 12, 2021) |

I had misread the original post . . . I thought it was ?when did you won your first". First one I rode as 1987 at Armando Magri, Inc. in Sacramento while there for the Sacramento Mile. The next week I was in Mukwonago at the barn. The first one I owned (I had a couple of loaners on the way) was my 1995 S2 which would make the "ownership" number something like 26 years. The S2 . . . which has been in 44 states . . . still sits here . . . with an Aaron Wilson Blue Printed motor . . .waiting to be resurrected. I've thought about selling it but there is something about the first Buell to have seen most the great venues in America . . .that's sentimental It sits here under some pics of Erik and I . . along with HD folks, like Wille G and his wife and Rich and Anne Teerlink when we had the first Buell meeting in Topeka in 1987 |

Got my 01M2 in 2009 . Was a Buell fan for years but had other obligations at the time. Just picked up a 99S3 with less than 5k on the odometer, to save from the scrap yard because the motor is thrashed. Hope to have it on the road next summer. |
