We spent the Labor Day weekend up in the NC mountains on the old XB9R. We road a lot of roads and saw a lot of bikes. Out of all the bikes I saw and got to ride with, I only saw one Buell and it was mine.

I could not believe it was the only one I saw in four days of being up there. Are they really not seen on the roads that much anymore?
 
I live in MN where the bike scene is ridiculous during the summer. I have yet to see another Buell all summer. Sad to say, I think we the last few of a dying breed my friend.
 
I'm in MN. Saw a black/red R going down 35w in Lino Lakes last Friday. Also a black/gold R is always at the local Oreillys
 
I was getting on the freeway not too long ago and all of a sudden a bike races up behind me and starts revving his engine like crazy. Look over to see a bright red xbs. I got all excited to see another Buell. Don't see many of them around. As long as you can put up with the heat, you can ride all year here in Vegas. You'd think with odds like that, I would see more than I do.

do you guys get all giddy inside when you see another one on the road too? Or is that just me?
 
Glad I'm not the only one....
Saw a 12r on the highway a while ago while I was in my car. I looked his bike over while we were at the same speed. He looked at me looking at him and I tossed a thumbs up out the window. He might have been just as excited that I knew what it was!
 
Hell I turn around and chase them down when I see other Buell's!

I wanted to but I was following a friend who just moved into a new place and had no clue where I was going.
 
ive seen 3 around where i live. seen a guy texting on his blue 1125r, seen and gold and black r and i always see a red tuber, not sure of model, at the court house.
 
I've only seen like 2 in the Cincinnati area...

But that's one of the cool things about Buells is their uniqueness. Not being on a dime-a-dozen bike is part of why I love mine [cool]
 
Right on man, I'm actually about 20mi North of Cincy in a town called Hamilton. Maybe that was you I saw one of those times, heh.
 
Hey guys im from west chester originally and live in the dayton area right now for school. Im very framiliar with the hamilton area though
 
I always see a few at the Dragon. There's also one in my town just like mine. 09 or 10 cherry bomb Scg
 
I'm in the SF Bay Area south of oakland and there's 3 or 4 in my neighborhood. I regularly see a couple of Lightnings and an M1 (I think).
Now that mines back on the road I hope I get to ride with them instead of just see them pass by.
