Nice Bike liked the 675r but opted for the liter torque

I loved mine but sold it for my Gix 750, I really like a triple but the extra cc's are nice.

Man that pic really doesn't do the paint justice post up one of your close ups.

 

[netty2424]

Why'd you sell?

 

[jkritter]

I like the design of the bike except for the tail. Its got a big ass.

Sharp bike. Sad to see you leave the 12R behind, though.

Sexy tops and fat bottoms are awesome!

(Bike does have alittle extra clutter back there tho)
I LOVE the 675s! I want one so bad.

Netty I sold my 12r because I could never get comfortable on it. I got the 675 because it still has awesome cornering and the more aggressive lean angle helps my short body syndrome . Plus being lighter with a 6th gear always helps. I would of went with a 1125r but I don't like how bulky they are. The triple gives me more torque than the 4s. Also like the buell you rarely see them riding around at least here. Hopefully one day I will get another buell maybe a 1190rx later just time for me to try something else to see if that suits me better. Never heard a bad thing about a 675 and didn't want a liter bike. Also if you havent seen the paint on a 675r in person its truly amazing.

Haha, this thread reminded me of the Spinal Tap song "Big Bottom", where they all play bass guitar, and sing about their girls lol!

There seems to be a movement of sorts of Buell owners turning to Triumph bikes?! Triumph is the only brand over here that saw their sales increase, even with the crisis, while all other manufacturers loose up to 60% of their sales (Suzuki, Kawasaki...).
I hear Benellis have an awesome liter+ triple too.

Sorry to see you sell the Buell, it took me a while to get used to my XB too, but now I'm in love with it! Have fun with the new bike!
