Back to the "old skool"! I recently sold my 2004 XB12R and my 2003 Blast. Here is what I picked up..........





2001 M2 Cyclone!!!!! I used to own an X1 back in the day. I am returning to my roots.

That's a class bike!

Arguably the most thoroughly debugged and reliable of all the tubers. You're a lucky guy.

When I was looking for a bike last fall, I looked at Kawis, Harleys, and even a Triumph. I bought a Cyclone. Hail to the King Baby!

Nice! I really liked my old M2. The volcano gray is (imho) the best color they every made.

Beachbuell,

My eyes must be getting old - I saw the title to the thread and I swear I thought it said, "I Defecated".

In either case, congrats!

Nothing was wrong with the Bolt at all. I just wanted something with a little more character and rough around the edges. All Buells are rare and have character/soul (as in you don't usually pass yourself on the roads). But, the tubers are indeed like a fine wine or an acquired taste. Besides, I needed to slow down a lil bit too.

I've had a lot of bikes, still have a few, and the M2 is the only thing that I've kept this long and not lost interest in it.

I kept the S3 as my streetbike when I bought my XB - and I love the black and orange:
