I have been on this board for a few years and have found it's knowledge helpful and some of the banter just silly entertaining. So thanks.

I just sold my XB after a few years of harassing from my friend (he bought it) and because a nice 05 thruxton came my way and I'm feeling the need for a little change.


I feel like i'm going to miss this bike something fierce but I don't see myself on a thruxton for more than a year or so, so I may be back.

thanks again for all the info.

You're welcome



By then, maybe they'll have some new 1125 models that you'll like even better than the current R model.

I'll still peek around every now and then for sure.

And Gentleman Jon, The 1125 looks so appealing on paper but man I just can't get over the "messy" look to it. One of my favorite things of the air cooled Buells is the nice tidy presentation. Performance is nice but I also like something that stirs the soul a little.

Anyways you are one of the people on this board I've enjoyed the most. Always knowledgeable and pleasant. I have never talked to you directly but thanks.

-Steve

That tail fender will go bye bye and I have a few other ideas as well.

Two cylinders. Two wheels. Two carbs....OOPs well it's almost like a Buell

Hey Toona I didn't really mean it. I was just trying to be nice.
