Looks like we have the good fortune of having one of many different size trailers at our disposal. We need to figure out how many riders want to trailer up and see what we can work out from there. H.H., I think Carey changed gears again. |

I've got Photoshop 7... You can use the magnetic lasso tool (THE coolest graphic design tool ever created BTW) to select all of the silvery stuff and then ramp the color to anything you want . Btw... NICE choice Carey . |

Carey...you beat me to it! Had one of those in mind my self til the wife put the ki-bosh on it! Liked the ZX6 over all the other 600's, but I also liked the Daytona 650. Luckily with the check book being taken away, I'll be able to wait and see what next year brings...Daytona 680 TRIPLE...now that may be interesting! |

She is pretty J! Good Job... Honest question. Haven't seen any of you chime in on the new models yet. Don't chastise if you have, maybe I didn't see it. Those threads have been many and LONG... Anyway, am I the only one crazy for the Ulysses or what? For some of you "shorter" friends, I understand... LOL! |

Wycked, was the Ulysses why you told me to save a down payment??? I plead the 5th... Yup, it is a bit of a challenge for us J, but, I want the SS model with the tail section and bags from the X model, like since when have I not crossed platformed anything... |

I don't like them, I think they are re-hashed versions of the original XB's, like the CityX. There catering to the European market, Buells sell better over there and they have better dealers, just my two cents. Its time for me to move on....... |

Re-hashed, yes, into a market segment in which they'll be competitive... One I'm personally excited about. To each his own. I think Buell must get a foothold in a market to generate revenue enough for the long haul. I think we'll get our full faired monster eventually, I really do. Just not yet. |

I'm very sure we'll get a fully faired monster. Erik is a race guy. I think I may be picking up the Ulysses as well . I can't say as I like the SS, but to each their own. I'm quite happy that my 12R isn't obsolete (not that I'd get rid of her anyway) AND it'll still keep up with an IL4 600 where I want it to . |

I'll just have to ask Erik when I see him next month in Colorado, what else he has up his sleeve. by the way everyone, I'll be moving to Albuquerque, New Mexico next month. It's been great riding, and partying with you, ride safe, and try to keep the rubber side DOWN!!! (I know a few of you have problems with that) See ya on the road!!! BuellHo |

I agree with you Charlie and Don, the XB12Ss is a step in the right direction, though a full fairing 1300+cc XB13RSs or a XB12RSs I think would have complimented the the other models also. One new model and some variations to the Firebolt like the Lightning would have been cool and I would have bought a XB12RSs or a XB13RSs in a heartbeat!!! |
