Just a HELLO from Jersey (channel islands)

[jsyblade]

Hi all, just joined so be gentle PLEASE!

Had this for a year or so..........

A 2001, garaged most of its life with only 1575 miles on when I bought HER!
BARN FIND!
Last on the road legally 2012.
Serial: 4MZKS11J11............so NOT an "L"!
She was imported over to Jersey back in 2001 when bought and specced by a very rich man (with another 3) and converted to british roads.

Headlights, indicators etc as we have VERY strict rules here.

M2, volcano grey, minter....well was :-(

NOW hammered, its a shame to store such a beast, it has and should be used

Had the heads ported, polished and skimmed 15 thou.

A HSR 48 with high flow filter.
560 cams

OMG!

Love it!

 

[Cooter]

Sweet! That color combo absolutely POPS! Congrats on the new ride:eagerness:

And don't worry, we're only mean to 34:19.

Very attractive looking M2. Your VIN readout if you're curious.

I will be doing a ride in Jersey on the "BITCH" soon.

NO video as you know it vibrates TOO much, it'll just be a collection of photos of the "B" in various locations.

work currently in progress.


I'll post asap

 

[Outlaw]

That Rotax crap is fast. But I agree the tubers and xb's have soul.

 

[jsyblade]

I totally agree Outlaw!

I've had/ridden and owned quite a few bikes, only a few!.....hence my name jsyBLADE

Currently have:

CB1300 Bol D'Or 2003
Dominator 650 (I think in america its a NX650) 1989
Gilera VXR200 (224 kit MALOSSI) &
Peugeot speedfight 50cc (de-restricted) for my daughter.

BUT.....


out of all of them, this BUELL is the "Funnest" and puts the biggest "smiliest" smile on my face.

Modern bikes are just............boring.

YUP!

Rider AIDS:

Do you want to stop? I have a linked system for that.
Do you want to rev it? I have a limiter for that
Do you want to? YES MOFO!.........Ill get my coat...........Im leaving (lost cause)

Hence my M2:

If i twist the throttle in the wrong place i die.
If i DONT twist the throttle in the right place i die.

THE BEAUTY OF BUELL, and the respect that they deserve

Thank You Mr Buell X

 

[jsyblade]

just to show.....

I just love the looks you get when you pull up next to someone, and they are expecting to see a hog, due to the sound
and then they are like, WTF is he riding?

Other thing is, how positive people are on the looks of these bikes even though they are 20+ years old.
Timeless style

 

[jsyblade]

SOOOoooo much fun seeing the faces of bikers stuck in cars!

POP, thumpy, POP, POP, thumpy, POP...............BRUMPYPOPPAH!
(traffic lights left WELL in the distance)

design and functionality is in the design and eye of the beholder.

THEY will wake up soon.......most modern bike styling go for the top end heavy slope to front attack....AH LAH BUELL design.

WHAT a clever, clever man, way before his time.......

shame....BUT



Just a product of its time.
KEEP hold of the old buell boiyze!
