| Performance Mods!: | K&N Filter. Race ECM. Open air box kit from American Sportbike. Drummer catch can. Drummer SS muffler. Pirelli Diablo Rosso tires. |
| Problems/Miles (Please be specific): | Had a chaffed wire in the wiring harness from day one that was blowing ignition fuses. Fixed under warranty. At 10K found two nicked wires under fusebox. Took me all but two minutes to fix. At 18.5K miles I had the "chaffed fuel pump wires" problem. I was able to fix that easily enough. So far only problems have been electrical. This bike has been mechanically perfect. |

| Why I do/don't ride a Buell: | It fits me like a glove, it flicks in & out of corners at the speed of thought and it's sooooo much fun! |
| How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: | That's not the question. The question is: How can Buell improve the dealerships? |
| Life History/Philosophy: | Live & let live. |
| Top speed on 2 wheels (mph): | 124 indicated on my 12Scg, Not very fast but I try to stay out of the triple digits. |
