Went over 10,000 miles on my '07 XB9R today.

As I was filling her w/premium before a 150 mile ride earlier today a fella walked up and said "are you selling this bike?". Not a chance I replied. First bike I ever had that was not for sale.

Thanks Mr.Buell.

First bike I ever had that was not for sale.

I can honestly say, that if I were offered any bike in trade, even of my own choosing, I'd say no.

I'd like to have more bikes, but I'll not be giving up [my 9R] any time soon...

DavyBoy: Can I ask why? I'd like to have a CR so you have me wondering what you think of it compared to the XB.

Funny this thread should appear. 8k on my 12X. Last weekend I thought I'd test ride a CR. The bike was amazing and lots of fun to ride. But it also reaffirmed my love for my X. I'm not sure why, but for the first time ever, I have no urge to buy a new motorcycle. Can a bike be too perfect?

i have no idea how many miles i have on buells. my original first buell(03xb9r) has 23,000 on it(no problems to talk about except alot of blown belts. my 1125 has almost 6000 on it and there have been a good handfull of others along the way. i was doing a bit of figuring from what i remember and it is easily over 50,000 between them.

lightweights, stop gloating about how your bikes are barely broken in and get out and ride!

I have almost 30K on my 05cg and I'm still in the 'honeymoon phase'.

Even if I could afford a new bike I would never part with my S.
