Contrats! Speaking of twisties, you can do some serious lean angle without dragging anything on that bike.

Buells are great bikes. Its a shame what the moco did to Eric Buell when they dumped his line. I raced my Buell many times at Virginia Motorsports Park, and even won a race or two. They are fun motorcycles, you'll surely enjoy it.

Congratulations and ride safe. Enjoy your new scoot, and trust me when I say, when you do get your H-D you'll agree it was worth the wait.

Once you get used to the way that Buell rides riding a cruiser may be somewhat of a disappointment.

As far as I know Erik sold it to HD, so you don't need to worry about him, he got a few millions probably.

As said, at least you are on two wheels (and not "The Dukes of Hazard" style )
When it is all said and done, when you are able to get another bike, yuo already have the perfect canidate for a cafe racer or an extreme bobber

Nice find! I have a couple of Harleys right now, but I want to get a Buell next!

Have fun with it!
