I have a 12R with dirt bike bars on it. A KICK ASS daily commuter. I have over 20k miles in 3 seasons, even with a month off here and there cuz I could not afford new tires at the time. 2 of those seasons were done with stock handlebars. I just picked up an 85 Suzuki sp600 to put less miles on the Buell. Should make a nice motard when it's all said and done. But; after so many miles, and doing all my own service and repairs, I find it hard to NOT climb on the Buell. It's a reDONKEYlous amount of fun!
