| Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
Actually, it was the price that attracted me,,now I love the bike.. It is a great all around machine and I have converted another guy over from "rice rockets" to the world of Buell....
|
| How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
Probably customer service could be better..Most Harley shops don't get the Buell thing,,it's like a foreign language to the ape-hanger crowd. (BTW, I had one and spent a lot of time at the chiropractor working on a a stiff neck. Buell should have their own dealership and should stop sharing the showroom floor with the HDs. It's like the illegitimate step child thing....sort of known about but not talked about.
|
| Life History/Philosophy: |
Born in New Orleans, Cajun by the grace of god(with some Choctaw Indian thrown in). BS in Computer Science from LSU. Worked in telecommunications most of my life. Am semi-retired only because I have a bad habit of spending money. Love to fish,,any kind or place,,I prefer fly fishing,,but can pitch a spinner bait with the best of them.Married to my love, Connie, who also loves most of my bad habits (except cuban cigars). Trying to get her up on 2 wheels by herself. She also fishes with me and most times kicks my butt(I taught her everything she knows.) Two sons, both ride rice rockets although they don't hesitate to ask for a ride on my Buell..

| Preferred engine oil (brand/grade): |
Royal Purple 10W40
|
| Worst fear while riding.: |
Grey hairs that look through the steering wheel. Almost got run over last week by one,,then she shook her fist at me....go figure. |
