New Buell coming out.

[Psychoholic]

I want add a sportbike to my toy collection - but I don't want just an ordinary gsxr, cbr, r1, yz, etc... I want something more interesting.

I had put some hellacious thought into a Ducati 1098, a Aprilia Tuono 1000r, or a Triumph Speed Triple... But they are all overpriced and nothing really 'special' (other than the ducati, which admittedly gives me a chubby) - until I saw this:

The Buell 1125R.

And it is only 11,995!

I think after I finish paying off my Harley I'm going to get one.

Thoughts?

Wait at least one year before buying anything "new" from HD so they can get all the bugs out. I worked for them for 8 years, and I found that was a good rule to live by.

It's going to be probably a year before I can pay the other one off - and in non-traditional american fashion I'm not going to over leverage myself to get another toy.

Thoughts?????

Yea, you'll look funny in a full set of leathers.

I say get it...I love Buell's and am thinkin about getting one of these myself.

Ive been considering it since I found out they were maiking them-but I'm moving to Europe next year-probably right after I finish building Erzabet and payin off my Harley. Then I'll be in Europe and my dream vehicles will be here. WTF!?
