Default So I couldnt afford a harley

So i bought my *** a buell. So hey at least i got me a 1200 cc sportster engine till i can afford my cruiser. Its my first bike and it was pretty much either this or honda shadow an I wouldnt fit in with the whole "you meet the nicest people on a " brand. I got it for 1500 dollars its a 96 s1. I already been offered 2000 for it before i even got to ride it but i think im gonna have to have some fun first. Besides I want a bike not money. Maybe when i save up another 2 grand ill go ahead and sell it cause I want a dyna glide lowrider or somethin.

Congrates. At least you've got 2 wheels. Ride it and enjoy it. Not everyone can start with a Harley but at least you understand that your Buell is just a stepping stone to the big time.

Ride it like you stole it. Then when you get tired of the Buell you already have the perfect drivetrain for a custom Bobber!

thanks thanks ... well one plus to the whole situation is im goin to mmi in phoenix to become a harley and buell tech so at least if i get stuck on that for a while ill know my way around it .. and speaking of the whole bobber thing i was originally thinking of doing that but then i realized itll cost as much as a whole extra used bike .. so in that case ill probally get a used dyna or somethin eventually and keep the buell as a toy and the harley as my main transportation .. lets just hope i dont land on my head wit my lil non dot novelty *** helmet

That's a fine motorcycle. It is hard to believe someone sold it for 1500. You're a lucky biker.
