No. Way. No ZTL brake, HUGE-ass mufflers hanging WAY out the back. Gastank on top of tubeframe... Looks mighty Japanese to me. |

I hope it's a joke. Did you look at the ugly thing? and why would buell go back in time with a tube frame when they have one of the most advance frame when it come to mass centralization, plus I really doubt Eric would put two ugly big pipe on each side of the bike since he is saying himself that the best place for an exhaust is under the bike. Do you seriously think this could be a future buell?if yes you don't understand the way Eric think at all, it would be a travel back in time of about 15 years maybe more for him to make a bike like that. |

That is a fat ugly pig. And companies don't brand bikes they are secretly testing and trying to disguise with their logos. I hope to god Buell never switches to steel trellis frames! |

Yeah, that's a Cagiva with a buell sticker on it. I do like that green, though I would be disappointed with another year of "awesome new colors" for model changes. |

Now, now! I like what they have done. Although, not my cup of tea, I do like the overall package. Now, color the green black and those who throw rocks would probably give it thumbs up. I like the tail section, but the rear hugger don't quite fit. |

I would think there might be a decent market for alternate color airbox and windscreens for XB owners...plug and play SX types...I know I'd be interested in a couple colors. Depends of whether you can get around any legalities and do it cost effectively, I suppose. |

I like the tail section, but the rear hugger don't quite fit. Get rid of the gold to start with. Gold is an extremely gaudy color IMO. Then I might like it. Paint the green black and leave the rest polished and I'd probably love it. |

Am I the only one who think that bike in the link looks good. I really like it. Not more than my buell, but way more than the cookie cutter japanese bikes you see all the time. |

Who keeps voting 1 star for 07xb12scg's posts...they should be banned. Haha. Thanks for the support. I guess I voice my opinion "too often" for some people's taste and they don't like that it differs from their opinion. They hate when I talk bad about Buells even if it is the truth I'm speaking. As I always say, it's the truth that hurts most. If the things I said weren't true people would just ignore them. The thing is, I always say that I love my Buell even with all of its problems, but that never seems to matter. Don't sweat it, though. I know I sure don't. |

Hey Heads, what front fairing is that??? Personally, I'd love to put one of these Moto Morini fairings on my Ss.
