I won't be trading my 06 uly any day soon.
Here is my 5 cents worth;
-seat not as good
-no low down grunt.
-terrible wind noise,i have standard fairing.
-cannot hear motor over 60 kms
-9000 rpms to get flying
-looked for another gear
-handling, felt too cumbersome
-gear change felt vague
-overall Buell finish better.

True story from just last week. A fellow retired engineer from my old place of employment said he had just bought a new Triumph Tiger. Said it was the most "Intuitive" bike he had ever ridden, felt like he had been riding it for 5 years. I told him it was high time he traded it in then.
