No problem and I didn't drop her just a nice ride. Windy as can be but warm so I found the back roads to try and have a little fun. I am amazed again and again how well she handles. I haven' been draging anything...yet but I never had a bike that'd turn like this. The only thing is leafs on the road WILL lead to a high pucker factor!  But she went where I pointer her even if I was somewhat sideways. THEN I hit dirt! Well enough BUT no way a 400+ pound bike is ever going to be a great dirt bike! About 15 miles on gravel roads was enough for me. The "Bar Bikers" were out in force and I got more than one funny look and a nice chat with the local policeman. I was stop in a store getting gas and a coke when he pulled in and ask me "What is that thing?" 1 week and I've heard that 10-12 times already. OH yea mileage seems kind of low but I guess that could have to do with turning that twisty thing on the right end of the bars too hard! For all the rough start I had with my Buell I think she going to be here a long long time! Birdy | ||

She gets mud and dirty nicely. Just gotta work into it, 55 on dirty back county roads is too much fun to keep off of. And she will mud slug with the best of them  Get on with the Bendy and Dirty (396 lbs, 101 hp) | ||

Hey City I like the rear part on the Uly fender you put on your bike. I was thinking of that or a low fender off and City-X on mine. The white fork protectors are getting to me, looks like a couple of "Bobby Socks"  Birdy | ||

"Well enough BUT no way a 400+ pound bike is ever going to be a great dirt bike!"    May she rest in peace.  | ||

I'm gonna make a thread in the quick board soon since it seems that only people that frequent the BB&D section know. I should know a bit more from the insurance in a few days so i will post an update then. http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/313684.html?1193098881 | ||
