We have a ton of great roads around here.
It's hard to go anywhere, without having a great ride.

Welcome from a Tulsa, Ok ULY rider. Just did an awesome 3 days in Arkansas running HWYs 123, 7, 16, 341, 62,and 90 in Missouri. The ULY shines on those roads.

Welcome aboard! I just picked up my XT today. Grips can get too hot, bags hold too much stuff, seat's too comfortable, too fast. I think I'll get used to it though.

Welcome. Don't believe what the others say -"Racing Red" is by far the fastest. Wish I was there riding now. Speaking of white, it's snowing here and headed towards a few degrees below zero tonight.

Sorry to all who made untrue and unfounded statements regarding color. Camo is definitely the fastest!

BTW, Welcome Dave!

Welcome Dave. It's good to have you with us. This forum, which I'm new to as well, is extremely pleasant and helpful. You'll enjoy it.

Welcome! I'm pretty new to riding Buells myself - I expect to get my first Buell (XT) in the next week or two. Since I'm in Wisconsin, I probably won't be doing much riding until Spring unless that global warming kicks in.

Welcome! I got my X back in February, and I've been loving it ever since. You made a great choice.

But let me set the record straight as far as color goes. As everyone knows (but isn't willing to admit), blue's the only color there is. White's just a very light blue. In the same way, black is a very dark blue. Red and yellow are just mixed up blues, and camo's really just blue from 'way out in left field.

Congrats and welcome. I am new to Buells myself, picking up a used'06 X a few months ago. This is a great forum with very helpful and knowledgeable members... and guys like me who attempt to be helpful but should largely be ignored.

Any kind of coloring at all just adds extra weight which will slow down your bike by probably 10-15 MPH. Natural carbon fiber is going to be MUCH thinner and faster than any of the colored ones........
