https://revivalcycles.com/pages/the-bueller I like it, apart from the silly ultra-short straight pipes. It looks like a dirt-worthy XB at any rate. |

Batteries and air filters are over rated anyway... |

It looks loud, in more ways than one! |

they made a crappy dirt bike out of a great sport touring bike. they obviously are very skilled and are tying to get their work noticed. it looks neat and different, but to me it seems akin to making a sport quad/ATV out of a monte carlo. hopefully they will stop trying to revive motorcycles that are not in need of it and sell all of their 'image' that they have in stock. i couldn't find any neckbeards in their online store, but their $175 'shop rag shirt' and $315 'Dehen motorcycle sweater' are saved in my shopping cart |

Interesting, I'd be interested in the adjustable idler arm. But beyond that, what did that Buell do to them to deserve that sort of treatment? |

Whacking n hacking has been in the world since the first wheel came about. Some are really appealing to the eye and some we wonder why lightening hasn't hit the artist yet for ruining a machine that didn't deserve to be ruint. Anyhow, when family was much younger and wife was getting her education , bachelor of fine arts, we had to code the kids. When around bums, breasts, penises, etc we told them to put their hand to their chin, observe said artwork, and simply say , nice artwork! No matter what you thought of it. That's what I have to do when seeing some of these machines in their changed form. I thought this of the 2010 blast in its cubed form which to me started the customizing craze for buells. |

I would love to have that subframe on my Cr with the factory select seat. I like this bike. I think it would work better as a motard, though. Looking at this website....this guy has nodded some very rare and high dollar machines. I can see alot of traditional enthusiast cringing...but I like some of the other works too.

As a custom, it was probably never meant to actually "hit the dirt". More of an art piece. It looks pretty cool. Hopefully they started out with "salvage" parts. |

I should have looked at the picture sequence. I have more respect for it now, though it's a shame they sacrificed a complete Uly. |

JB2 and Hillbilly Ed did that same thing on stock Cyclones. |

I think it looks awful. The stock Ulysses looks much better. |
