|
Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
I bought my used Blast because it wasn't outrageously expensive like most other used bikes on Oahu. Turns out that I like to ride AND work on it. Very easy to maneuver, more than enough power to putz around town. Nothin' over 70 for me--not enough freeway and too many cops.
|
How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
Ummm, maybe HD can bring back the Blast so that we can get improved parts? Yeah, HD should hire Thumpe to design new parts!
