I just took my friend's XR1200 for a good 45 minute ride town/interstate/mild twisties. It ain't no buell, but its the best damn harley I have ever ridden. If you want a great harley, buy it. As compared to a buell, it is a weaker/slower/more uncomfortable than my old 2002 M2. I was surprised @ the brakes/suspension/handling and cornering. Mind blowing compared to any other stock HD I have ridden. But once again it ain't no buell. DAMHIK, but it has some kinda secondary rev limiter that kicks in @ the 115mph mark?? It's not near redline. WTF? IMHO I love the look. But if want that type of ride buy an old M2, they are cheap. (Message edited by barker on December 30, 2008) |

I believe an M2 even makes similar power with less weight. Every review I hear about this thing says is the best HD to ever come out of the factory. |
