Anyone ever seen an ACTUAL celebrity on a Buell? Besides Queensryche and Erik?

Someone out there has to have a picture.

Just curious. I've seen em on Ducati's and CBRR's and Triumphs and all that, but I can't recall seeing ONE on a Buell.

Jay Leno has one, not sure if there are any pics of him on it though.

There was a pic of Russell Mitchell doing a burnout on a lightning somewhere,

Tim (No_Rice) has a picture of the guy that played the t-1000 terminator sitting on his bike.

Uh, I watched a Monk (marathon) episode this week with a blue XB9R in the driveway of the bad guy. Does that count?

I posted a picture of Russ Mitchell doing a smoke show on a Lightning a couple of years ago at the Easyriders Rodeo at Fowlerville, and nobody knew who he was.

Celebrities?

Don't we all count as celebrities when we are on a Buell?

Does that count?

Notoriety & celebrity are two different things.

Wasn't there a picture of Vinny from OCC on a XB9S somewhere?

Fabio once sent an email to me that included a photo of his Buell S1.

I recall seeing a photo here of Russell Mitchell of Exile Cycles and "Build It or Bust" fame on his Buell at a dyno shootout.

Oh and get this, the original owner of my '97 M2 is listed as "Tim Allen" with a Michigan address if I recall correctly. The bike is well-traveled as I purchased it from a man in Queens, NYC.

Is that the guy who sold John Voight's car?

I just had this mental image of Fabio, astride a Buell, with his hair flying in the breeze, posing for one of those romance novel covers..........talking to Blake...struck me as funny ; )

Kylie Minogues French boyfriend had an X1 she was seen riding on the back of around Paris a few years ago.

Don't forget the Danny Sullivan RR1000.

Does Bubba Blackwell's S1 count?

depressing.

We're down to Queensryche, Kylie Minogue's French Boyfriend, The liquid metal dude from Terminator 2(sitting on No Rice's), and Queen Latifah, and the dude from the news.

I think the cool part is visualizing Russ Mitchell "owning the corners" and getting his undertail "rhino-lined" by doing a burnout is bitchin'. So far, that's the best one, in my book. I would like to see that picture.

When Witchblade was on the air, Yancy Butler regularly rode a Buell X1. Google and you should be able to find a publicity photo of her astride the bike.

In Blade 3, both Wesley Snipes and Jessica Biel ride matching Firebolts.

Steve Natt, who used to host "Motorcycle Freedom" on Cablevision's Mag Rack, rides a modified X1 Lightning too.

Is this celebs that own Buells or have just sat on or ridden Buells?
If it's the latter, don't forget Wesley Snipes & Jessica Biel (sp) in the last Blade flick.
Yancy Buttler rode an X1 on her show Witchblade.

Didn't you know that just sitting on a Buell makes one flip people off? I think it's a torque related side effect...
