Just got the call that my CR will be ready to pick up today! I'll get some pics up!

Mine was supposed to ship a week ago. As of yesterday it still hasn't even been built yet.

I feel your pain. I sold my Lightning to get this, and being bikeless has really spooled up my OCD. Well, what's life with out something to obsess on?

Yours will be here soon! Have you looked elsewhere? This unit actually came from one my my dealers sister stores, and the one the ordered here is still on the way. A black one.

MMmmmmmm....

But the red ones are definitely faster...

We just got ours a week early, Sorry Mark.
Ours is Red I can post some pics if it makes the waiting any easier.

Pics always help.

My ship date was actually moved up a week - it was originally today and got moved to the 12th.

But here I am, bikeless.

There are only two Buell dealer's in my area, and the other one I really don't like. I never got a good vibe from anyone that worked there.

<slobber...drool...burble>

Translation: Got my bike, and I don't have the words...

Just sex on wheels.



I never really liked the look of the cowling over the back seat, and am as happy as I thought I would be with the way it looks w/ the black/red contrast.



Not too wild about the clubman bars. Look cool as hell, but steers kinda strange. But then, I have been riding a f***ing scooter for the last month and a half.


YAY!

Rob

Rodger, Wilco. Ran out of daylight!

Just got the suspension set up to the specs in the OM. Felt good on the (all to brief) test ride.

I am whole again.

Congrats Rob!
I could see your grin through your helmet when you pulled out this afternoon.
Enjoy the new bike. Does that sound redundant, enjoy and new bike?

Thanks, Skyler. Took a little ride this morning, and Holy Cr@p! W/O going over 6k, this is easily as fast as my Lightning was. I'm going to come in today and order the bars and bags. I love the way the stock bars look, and I could live with it, but I will be much happier with the higher bars.

What do you think labor would be on that? I can probably do that myself, but time/$$$ may make sense to let Y'all.
