Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
The 2-wheeled love of my life was an 80 Kaw Z1R. I looked at a lot of bikes over a lot of years and finally found the Tbolt. It's as close as I could get to my old Kaw and has more power, better handling, better mileage, and it's made in the USA. Oh, did I mention, Love That Sound!
|
How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
I'd like to see some newer Buells like the S3T. Kind of a middle-ground style. I'm not ready for a Geezer-Glide yet, but don't like my belly on the gas tank.
|
Life History/Philosophy: |
66 year-old retired Navy Chief. Married to an Active duty female Army Sgt. I don't take very much very seriously, especially me. Competition and sport shooter, don't hunt much. Went to someone else's war once, love to tell the stories but don't want to do it again. Politically conservative. A shrink once called me a "Cheerful cynic". I talk too much and keep my sense of humor, even when others think it inappropriate. Borderline loner.
|
Top speed on 2 wheels (mph): |
135 mph.
|
Preferred engine oil (brand/grade): |
Castrol synthetic, grade varies
