| Why I do/don't ride a Buell: |
Thought that this bike would be exactly what I wanted. So far I have had fun, but things are not as they seem. Took 2 months to get workshop manual from dealer, so you can see why I would not take my bike there, it would be a clasic when I get it back. Its second hand and very well cared for, should be ok .The thing rattles like mad, told by dealer that ALL buells rattle? The worst noise is from the disc but you cannot buy the disc pin to fix it here in Oz? Looks like I have got a bike that will force me to sell it because it seems the company (HD,Buell)dont care for there products. So I may have to consider a Japper if thing keep going the way they are.Love the bike can't stand the problems..

| How can Buell improve their motorcycles?: |
For a start, produce all the parts to suit there products for at least ten years. This would go a long way to keeping customers loyalty!
