IT IS A TYPHOON! I know i know I shouldn't complain. it's only spelling... See the latest Cycle World pg 13 But it is kinda annoying that there is something about Buells every month in cycle world these days. Where as before H-D killed them there was only occasional coverage and it was always negative. I love the mag but the Buell stuff has always seems less that flattering pisses me off todd |

No soup for you, Todd! I suppose the typos in your post are deliberate? Supposed to be humorous, given the topic? Didn't think so... |

you are exactly right. the whole slant of Buell is now positive in the magazines. Prior to this they were not as positive. |

It's Pegasus now, not Buell with their variations of the HD "Thunderstorm" heads, etc... Makes sense. |

Oh, thanks court. cycleworld gave BUELL some props in 1995? I must have missed it. Like I said I do like the mag..... I just got tired of reading about what a POS my bikes are |

Ulysses and Helicon are also both Greek Mytholigy-sourced names. |

Actually, a LOT of Buell lore is mythology based. I need to find my un-scribbled copy so I don't feel guilty reading it...but I want to say there's a good bit about it in "25 Years". If only we had a way to ask someone who was involved in writing it....hmmmm...... (we need a coffee smiley...) |
