Buells are good on gas? Have the mileage issues for the 08+ models been resolved? It sounded like they were much less 'good on gas' than the 07- models.

Did anyone with a 08 xb9 complain about gas mileage? Just trying to rule out the new FI.

People actually buy the 9 still? Must be why they are down to one model! : D

Mileage?pshh its too much fun to worry about mileage. Any of the bikes gets better MPG than an Excursion, thats good enough for me.

Many American riders have a 'lust for speed' and have lost the 'passion for motorcycling'. Therefore, Buell is often overlooked. Real motorcyclists love my Buell. Squids talk about how much faster they are. Who cares.

Same here. The Duramax brushes the sunny side of 16. Anything above that is good in my book.

Heck - 16 isn't bad.

The SV650 at racing speed barely got 17-18 on a stock engine.

I avg ~40mpg, and that's almost all city riding, and hauling ass whenever I can. I would say that's some damn good mileage for a vehicle with enough power to wheelie just by snapping the throttle open : D
