BUELL SUCKS

Buellxb Forum

Help Support Buellxb Forum:

Funny. I was upset when I saw the heading. When I started reading I just began to think of how everyone hates everyone because they don't ride this type bike. If you ride a motorcycle that's cool in my book. But don't come on a buell forum that has helped you out in the past and basically say all of your bikes suck... Not cool maybe that's not what he meant, but I know some took it a certain wa

Yep that's kind of how I took it! At first I thought it was a joke. Then I read it thinking what a dick, but then I realized he wasn't hating on us, BUT in a strange twist whether he meant to or to, that's exactly what he was doing. Then I read he bought a busa, and it took me full circle to me realizing it was definitely a joke.

I found a picture of his new sweeeeet busa!

Lol, I don't think I've ever seen so many responses to a thread in such a short time. Keep the momo a-go-go!

We should just delete the thread..don't need people hating on a dying breed

No way. I see 1 hater and 20+ dedicated, die-hard fanatics.
 
Can i take his place? I can't wait to get a Buell. If it's half as addicting as this site then i'm in trouble.
 
Apples to oranges... I love my Ninja but I really LOVE my Buell! No, they are not for everyone and that difference is one of the thinks that drew me to my Firebolt. Seduction some might say. Other bikes might be more refined and have less issues in the long run, but none of them have the character or soul of a Buell. Strange that it was mentioned in one of these posts about Buells "finding" their owners. I kinda felt that way when I got mine. The more I read about them and read the posts on this forum, the more I wanted one - to the point where I couldn't stop myself.... Of course, I might just need medication, but damn, this bike is fun!
 
I wouldn't take any thing for my Buell (XB12R), and I wouldn't take anything for my Hayabusa ('01).

Some pet lovers have both a dog and a cat.
 
mates i love my Buell , however i don't see an issue with the guy moving brands because of issues that are not resolved. I really wanted to buy a white 1125R. I would keep my 12ss. But even though i an infatuated with a white 1125R I now would not purchase one as they don't have any backup virtually at all. HD don't wanna know us especially the 1125 crew so where does a guy go when his stator fails ? EBR nope from what i heard they don't do them now either , so where does the guy go? Obviously to another manufacturer that will support their product. I am not out for an arguement and i am as passionate a Buell fanatic as many of you and i aggree that because of that i ignore many issues and embrace their character. As many say Buells are not for everyone and as i cannot buy a new Uly i am off to soon get a Vstrom as an all rounder. C'mon Erik and produce a bike we can afford .
 
I know this for sure - I respect the 'busa as a bike. I don't *have* to respect the typical rider. Just as I respect the GSXR as a bike, almost every Ducati, etc etc etc. The bikes aren't the problem. There are even a few stupid Buell riders out there.

Buell IS a unique bike and it DOES have a learning curve and common issues. Any bike does. Most of us are willing to trade those issues for the absolutely insane handling, deep wells of torque, and a sound that makes the peasants drop to their knees and beg for mercy.
 
The issues do sometimes seem overwhelming when you read about them, but the exhiliration of riding it is second to none. I bought mine because it was original, exotic, unique, and limited. Never have been much for being part of the flock. Good luck to you and your endeavors. I'll stick with my American made monster, and deal with the issues. Nothing worthwhile come easy.
 
I hate my CityX as well after the last 2 years hut my girlfriend already after 2 month. On the girl I gave up but never on my bike. Some day she will be done and run like a gaps... And then I will give her up as I did on my gf
 
I joke when I post the crazy pic as anrkizm posted, anyone can jack up any bike. I could absolutely care less what anyone on here rides. It makes zero difference to me.

There's just a better way to go about that transition than the title used above.

But either way, good luck and enjoy the new bike!
