This is a great bike. I've only had it since July, will be sad to see it go. I'm only selling it because of lack of Buell dealers in the area and the ones that are reasonably close are still over 2 hours away. The previous owner was the head mechanic, Jonathan, at Mike Bruno's Bayou Country HD/Buell in Houma, LA. He replaced all the gaskets at 30K, I bought the bike at 35K. Only problems I've had are just general things that go out and not major problems. The Voltage Regulator went out at about 35.7k and had it replaced, and the top pushrod o-rings on the front cylinder went bad a week ago and I had them replaced by the HD/Buell in Hammond, LA. The bike runs great. Has a one of a kind airbox cover that was a Buell prototype given to Jonathan by a friend of his at Buell(thats what the salesman told me.) The bike also has a homemade exhaust that sounds absolutely AMAZING!!!!!! It also has custom machined risers on the handlebars that come up about a extra inch making it extremely comfortable to ride. I'm used to a Sportster 1200C so I know what a rough bike feels like and it may not look like much this bike is like a Cadillac compared to many Harleys that I've ridden. The bike does have a lot of miles on it, but overall in very good shape, some fading on the plastics and a few scuffs. I would recommend heat wrapping the pipes, that was going to be my next project. The bike has a two year extended warranty, I have the contract with all of the info on the warranty. This bike truly is a joy to ride. Whether I'm with my harley friends or my sportbike friends its easily the most looked at of all of the bikes. Any questions please don't hesitate to private message me. Jake

I'm still not sure...I was offered $4500 by one of the service counter guys in Hammond the other day, but that was before I'd even thought about selling it. But I'm not set on a price... |
